High-Protein Cheesecake with Berries

Ingredients

• 0.75 cup plain Greek yogurt, 2%
• 1 large egg
• 1.5 tbsp pure maple syrup
• 0.5 tsp pure vanilla extract
• 1 tsp fresh lemon juice
• 0.25 cup fresh berries (Blueberries or raspberries work best.)
• butter or cooking spray (For greasing the ramekin or small baking dish; amount not specified.)

Steps

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C).

2. 2

   In a bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, egg, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and lemon juice until the mixture is smooth.

3. 3

   Gently fold the fresh berries into the yogurt mixture.

4. 4

   Grease a ramekin or small baking dish, then pour in the mixture.

5. 5

   Bake for 28–32 minutes, until the edges are set and the center is slightly jiggly.

6. 6

   Let the cheesecake cool for 10 minutes, then chill it in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes; overnight chilling is suggested for the best texture.
