No Bake Apple Pie Protein Cheesecake
Ingredients
Cheesecake
1 scoop Prodough Maple Donut Whey Protein Powder
4 oz light cream cheese, softened
1 cup Greek yogurt
1 tbsp pure maple syrup
Graham Cracker Crust
8 graham crackers
¼ cup coconut oil, melted
Warm Cinnamon Apples
2 large apples, diced
1 tbsp maple syrup
1 tbsp lemon juice
½ tsp cinnamon
Instructions:
- Prepare Apples. Add apples, maple syrup, lemon juice, and cinnamon to a saucepan over medium heat. Stirring occasionally, cook until the apples are tender and syrupy, about 6-8 minutes.
- Combine Maple Donut Whey, light cream cheese, Greek yogurt, and maple syrup in a large mixing bowl. Using a stand mixer or electric hand mixer, whip on medium until completely combined, about 3-4 minutes.
- Prepare graham cracker crust. Melt coconut oil in the microwave until liquid, 15-20 seconds. Add graham crackers to a food processor and pulse until crushed. Add coconut oil and pulse until the mixture reaches a wet sand texture.
- Note: you can also crush the graham crackers by hand with a mortar and pestle or in a bag with a rolling pin.
- Assemble cheesecakes. In small ramekins or a 1-quart pan, firmly press the graham cracker mixture into the base. Spoon the whipped cream cheese mixture over the top, and top with the warm apple mixture.
- Enjoy immediately if you must, but we recommend chilling for at least an hour before enjoying to allow the cheesecake to firm up.
