Mini cheesecakes - Healthified

Healthified Mini Cheesecake Bites!




  • 1 pkg fat free cream cheese room temp
  • 1 contanor fat free cottage cheese
  • 1/2 cup greek yogurt or sour cream
  • 1 cup (or to taste) brown sugar xyltitol
  • vanilla, lemon and salt to taste 
  • 2 eggs room temp
  • 2 tbsp bean flour
(1 tsp vanilla, 1 tsp lemon, pinch salt for me)





crust is oat bran, (ground up in chopper) oat shredded square cereal, flax, brown sugar xylitol, spices (cinnamon, apple pie spice), and butter (melted) or oil. 

preheat oven to 350 line muffin tin, spray cups

mix crust ingredients together, spoon in about 1/4 - 1/3 cup and squish down flat in each cup.

mix wet ingredients in top list, minus eggs, in chopper, add sugar salt flavorings, add flour, add eggs. 

the chopper adds less air than stand mixers do.

after well blended, gently add to each cup, get close to top without going over, not much rising here.

bake twenty minutes. cool in or on top of oven for thirty mins. place in fridge for hour or more, then gently remove cups and serve. 

second batch

i just made these recently, first batch got a tad over cooked (i did 30 mins) so beware not to overcook!

  1. Jacob rated them "an 8 or 9". The healthified mini cheesecakes that is. Compared to a normal full fat one. He kept saying 10, but I urged him to think into it more. Healthier will never taste exactly like it, these were close. Fat free ingredients, sugar free sugars, bran crust. About 100 cals a pop. A less guilty snack option. So, a great success amongst some recent stevia related failures. Why I like xylitol better.
