Ingredients
  

Cheesecake base:

  • 70 g rich tea biscuit crumbs*
  • 30 g low-fat butter*
  • 10 g stevia*

Cheesecake filling:

  • 1 large egg
  • 150 g Philadelphia lightest*
  • 150 g 0% fat greek yogurt
  • 50 g stevia*
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • 7 g plain/all-purpose flour

Instructions
 

  • Pre-heat oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a 12-count muffin tray with 10 muffin liners and set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, make the cheesecake base by mixing together the cookie crumbs, melted butter and stevia until well combined.
  • Scoop 2 heaped tsp of the base into each muffin liner and flatten with the back of a spoon. You should be able to fill all the muffin liners about 1/4 of the way. Bake for 10 minutes then set aside to cool.
  • To make the cheesecake filling, combine the egg, cream cheese, yogurt, stevia, vanilla extract and lemon juice in a medium bowl and whisk until smooth. Sift in the flour and whisk to combine.
  • Transfer the cheesecake filling to a piping bag, snip off the end and pour the filling over the baked bases. You want to fill them until they are mostly full with only a small amount of the liner empty at the top.
  • Bake the cheesecakes for 30-35 minutes. Allow them to cool at room temperature for an hour before transferring to the fridge to set for at least 4 hours. Enjoy!

Notes

*Low-fat butter - can be subbed for an equal amount of applesauce or regular butter but the calories will differ. 
*Stevia - can be subbed for any 0 calorie granulated sweetener but keep the conversion in mind. The stevia I used is a 1:2 ratio of stevia to sugar. 
*Philadelphia lightest - can be subbed for low-fat cream cheese.
