Description
Cheesecake is one of those classic desserts that always hits the spot — creamy, rich, and endlessly customizable
Ingredients
Cheesecake Filling
1 1/4 cup cottage cheese
1 cup fat-free cream cheese
1/2 cup vanilla salted caramel protein powder
1/4 cup sugar-free maple syrup
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Graham Cracker Crust
6 keto graham crackers
1 tablespoon butter, melted
Toppings
Fresh fruits
Blueberry jam
1 tablespoon cocoa powder (optional for chocolate flavor)
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the cheesecake filling
Add the cottage cheese, cream cheese, protein powder, maple syrup, and vanilla extract to a blender
Blend on high until smooth and creamy — about 1–2 minutes
Scrape down the sides as needed to ensure everything is fully incorporated
Step 2: Make the crust
Place the keto graham crackers in a clean food processor or crush them in a bag with a rolling pin
Pulse or crush until they reach a fine crumb consistency
Transfer the crumbs to a bowl and mix with melted butter until evenly coated and clumpy
Step 3: Assemble the jars
Spoon a layer of the graham cracker crust into the bottom of each jar or ramekin
Press gently with a spoon to form a flat base
Scoop the cheesecake filling on top, dividing evenly between jars
Step 4: Chill the jars
Cover and refrigerate the jars for at least 1–2 hours to set the filling and enhance the flavor
Overnight chilling is even better if prepping ahead
Step 5: Add toppings and serve
Top each jar with your favorite fruits, jam, or a sprinkle of cocoa powder
Serve chilled and enjoy your healthy, protein-rich cheesecake
