Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 32 oz Greek yogurt (or dairy free alternative)
- 6 whole graham crackers (can substitute other cookies or a keto option)
- 1 cup strawberries (or fruit of choice, optional)
- 1/3 cup powdered sweetener (of choice, only if using unsweetened yogurt)
Instructions
- Sweeten the yogurt: If using unsweetened yogurt, first whisk in the powdered sweetener until fully combined to create a lightly sweetened base.
- Layer the yogurt: Spread about one-fourth of the yogurt evenly into the bottom of an 8-inch square pan, creating the first creamy layer.
- Add graham crackers: Break the graham crackers or your choice of cookies into large pieces and arrange them in a single layer over the yogurt, providing a crunchy texture.
- Layer the fruit: Add a layer of sliced strawberries or your preferred fruit above the graham crackers for a fresh, sweet burst of flavor.
- Repeat layers: Top the fruit with a second layer of yogurt and continue alternating layers of graham crackers, berries, and yogurt until all ingredients are used, finishing with a yogurt layer on top.
- Refrigerate to set: Cover the pan loosely, leaving a small opening to allow moisture to escape, and refrigerate for at least eight hours or overnight. This chilling step allows the cheesecake to thicken and set properly.
- Serve: Once set, slice the cheesecake into portions and enjoy as a nutritious breakfast, snack, or dessert.
- Store leftovers: Cover any leftovers tightly and refrigerate for up to one week or freeze them for up to three months. Thaw before serving for best taste and texture.
Notes
- You can substitute graham crackers with any other cookies or low-carb keto options to suit dietary preferences.
- Use dairy-free yogurt alternatives to make the recipe vegan-friendly if preferred.
- Ensure to leave a small opening when covering to prevent condensation buildup during refrigeration.
- Fresh fruit options can be varied seasonally or by preference, such as blueberries, raspberries, or kiwi.
- If using sweetened yogurt, omit the powdered sweetener for balanced sweetness.
