Ingredients
For the crust:
- 3/4 cup rolled oats
- 1/4 cup Chopped Pecans walnuts or almonds
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 3 tablespoons coconut oil melted
- 2 tablespoons low-calorie granulated sweetener or honey
For the filling:
- 4 ounces light cream cheese at room temperature
- 1 cup fat-free Greek yogurt vanilla or plain
- 1/4 cup low-calorie granulated sweetener or honey
- 1 egg
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup fresh berries
Optional: mint sprigs for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a muffin pan with 9 cupcake liners.
- Place the oats and nuts in the bowl of a food processor; pulse until the oats and nuts are coarsely chopped. Transfer the mixture to a bowl and stir in the cinnamon, coconut oil, and sweetener.
- Spoon a heaping tablespoon of the oatmeal mixture into each of the cupcake liners, pressing the mixture down with a spoon. Bake for 10 minutes then remove from oven and cool completely.
- Using a mixer, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add the Greek yogurt, sweetener, egg, and vanilla. Beat until completely smooth.
- Divide the filling evenly between the muffin liners.
- Bake in the oven for 25 minutes, until centers are set.
- Allow to cool completely, then place in the refrigerator to chill.
- When you're ready to serve the cheesecakes, remove the paper liners and top them with the berries and mint sprigs (optional).
- Store any remaining cheesecakes in the refrigerator.
Notes
- Pecans: you can use walnuts or almonds
- Oil: any other bland oil or butter will work, but we love coconut oil
- Sweetener: Low-calorie sweeteners like Truvia, honey, agave, or maple syrup.
- Cream-cheese: fat-free, light or dairy-free
- Yogurt: Greek yogurt or dairy-free option
