Description
Healthy mini Basque cheesecake that’s creamy, crustless, and high protein with a caramelized top and rich texture in every bite. It is light enough for everyday desserts.
Ingredients
- 5 ounces light cream cheese softened
- 1/2 cup vanilla Greek yogurt
- 1 large egg
- 1/4 cup granulated sweetener or sugar

- Stir in the Greek yogurt until smooth.
- Add the egg and gently mix just until incorporated with no lumps.
- Pour the batter into the prepared ramekin.
- Bake on the top oven rack for 12 to 15 minutes until deeply golden on top and slightly jiggly in the center.
