A delicious and creamy high-protein cheesecake served in convenient jars, combining smooth cottage cheese and Greek yogurt with a graham cracker crust and fresh berries. Perfect for a nutritious dessert or snack that is rich in protein and easy to prepare.

Ingredients

Scale

Cheesecake Mixture

  • 2 cups cottage cheese, 2% milk fat
  • 4 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 3 cups plain Greek yogurt, full fat

Base & Topping

  • 2 cups crushed graham crackers
  • 1 cup berries (such as blueberries, raspberries, or strawberries), or more to taste

Instructions

  1. Blend Cottage Cheese: Add the cottage cheese to a large food processor and blend for 1 to 2 minutes until it becomes smooth and creamy. This ensures a velvety texture for the cheesecake.
  2. Add Maple Syrup: Pour in the maple syrup and blend again briefly to incorporate sweetness evenly into the mixture.
  3. Combine with Greek Yogurt: Transfer the whipped cottage cheese into a mixing bowl and gently fold in the Greek yogurt using a silicone spatula until well combined.
  4. Layer the Jars: In each jar, layer the ingredients in this order: start with a layer of crushed graham crackers, followed by the cheesecake mixture, then another layer of graham crackers, a layer of berries, and finish with another layer of cheesecake mixture.
  5. Garnish and Serve: Garnish with additional fresh berries on top for a vibrant presentation. Serve immediately or refrigerate the jars to chill before serving. This recipe yields approximately 4 jars.

Notes

  • You can substitute maple syrup with honey or agave syrup if preferred.
  • For a lower-fat option, use low-fat Greek yogurt instead of full fat.
  • Adjust the type and quantity of berries based on seasonal availability and preference.
  • For added texture, consider sprinkling some chopped nuts or seeds on top before serving.
  • Refrigerate leftovers and consume within 2-3 days for best freshness.
