Delicious High-Protein Raspberry Cheesecake Bars

This recipe features a rich and creamy baked cheesecake filling made with high-protein ingredients, topped with a vibrant raspberry layer. It takes about 45 minutes from start to finish and serves 12 bars.

Ingredients

• 1 cup almond flour
• 2 tablespoons coconut oil, melted
• 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 2 cups cream cheese, softened
• 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
• 1/2 cup protein powder (vanilla or unflavored)
• 1/4 cup low sugar sweetener (like erythritol or stevia)
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup fresh or frozen raspberries

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8×8 inch baking dish with parchment paper.
2. Make the Crust: In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, melted coconut oil, honey, and salt. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared baking dish to form an even crust.
3. Prepare the Cheesecake Filling: In another bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add Greek yogurt, protein powder, sweetener, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined and creamy.
4. Assemble the Bars: Pour the cheesecake filling over the crust and spread it evenly. Drop spoonfuls of raspberries on top and gently swirl them into the filling using a knife.
5. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is slightly jiggly. Remove from the oven and let it cool to room temperature.
6. Chill: Once cooled, refrigerate the bars for at least 2 hours before slicing into squares. Serve chilled and enjoy your high-protein dessert!
