Step-by-Step Instructions for Healthy Greek Yogurt Cheesecake
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare your crust of choice in a springform pan or a pie dish.
  2. In a blender or food processor, blend the Greek yogurt, cream cheese (or tofu), salt, vanilla extract, lemon juice, sweetener, and cornstarch on high speed for 1-2 minutes until smooth.
  3. Carefully pour the mixture into your prepared crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
  4. Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 50 minutes until there's a subtle jiggle in the center.
  5. Cool in the oven for 1 hour with the door ajar, then refrigerate uncovered for 6-8 hours or overnight.
  6. Remove from the refrigerator, release the springform pan if used, slice, and garnish with berries or whipped cream before serving.
