I love this Low Calorie High Protein Dessert tastes like Cheesecake 🥰

I found this on TikTok and it’s so good, a low-calorie, high-protein dessert that tastes like cheesecake but healthier and is super easy to make.

Credit to @Esmeraldaenlacocina for this amazing recipe!

INGREDIENTS:

► 1 cup cottage cheese

► 1 cup plain Greek yogurt

► 1/4 cup maple syrup

► 1 tsp vanilla extract

► 2 eggs

► 1/4 cup corn starch

► Some berries (I'm using strawberries, blueberries, raspberries & blackberries)

... Read moreIf you're like me and crave something sweet but want to keep it healthy, this low-calorie, high-protein cheesecake dessert is a game changer. I love how creamy it is thanks to the cottage cheese and Greek yogurt base, and the touch of vanilla extract brings out a lovely flavor that's reminiscent of classic cheesecake without all the added fat and sugar. One thing I found helpful is using fresh mixed berries like strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries. They add a natural sweetness and a pop of color, plus antioxidants. Sometimes I drizzle a little extra maple syrup on top just to enhance the flavor without going overboard. The corn starch really helps with the texture, giving that slight firmness typical of baked cheesecake. I bake mine in a water bath to keep it extra moist and prevent cracking. It’s surprisingly easy and quick to put together, which makes it great for busy days when you want a healthy treat. I’ve also tried swapping the maple syrup for honey or a sugar substitute, and it works well for different tastes or dietary needs. For those who avoid eggs, adding a flaxseed egg substitute might work too, but I haven't tried it yet. This dessert has become a staple in my weekly meal prep because it satisfies my sweet tooth and delivers protein to keep me full longer. If you enjoy experimenting with healthy recipes, this cheesecake-style dessert is definitely worth a try!
