Recipe by Teri-Ann Carty
You will use:
- 6 inch styrofoam pan
- Parchment paper
- Food processor
- Oven & fridge
Ingredients:
Cookie Crust Ingredients
- 1¼ cup oat cookie crumbs
- ¼ cup Botanica Perfect Protein Vanilla
- 4 tbsp butter melted
- pinch salt
Cheesecake Filling Ingredients
- 180 grams cream cheese room temperature
- 1 cup cottage cheese room temperature
- 1 cup Greek yogurt room temperature
- 2 eggs room temperature
- 1 tsp vanilla
- ¼ cup sugar
- pinch salt
- ¼ cup strawberry chia jam
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350.
- Line a springform with parchment paper.
- To a bowl, add cookie crumbs, melted butter and salt. Mis well and press firmly into the prepared pan. Bake for 15 minutes. Set aside to cool.
- Reduce oven temperature to 300.
- Add all the ingredients except the jam into the food processor. Blend until smooth and creamy. Pour over the baked crust.
- Add dollops of jam on top. Use a knife to swirl jam into the batter.
- Place the cheesecake onto a cookie sheet and place it in the oven. Bake for 55-60 minutes. The centre will still be a little jiggly.
- Allow the cake to rest at room temperature until cool enough to place in the fridge. Let the cheesecake chill 4-6 hours or overnight for best results.
- Serve with fresh berries.
Notes
- You can use 2% cottage cheese, but low-fat or full-fat would also work.
- For a rich cheesecake, stick with Greek yogurt. It's also higher in protein.
