  • 2 tbsp butter or coconut oil melted
  • Pinch of salt
  • For the Filling:
  • 8 oz light cream cheese softened to room temp
  • 1/2 cup plain non-fat Greek yogurt room temp
  • 1/3 cup maple syrup or honey
  • 2 large eggs room temp
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
Toppings

Equipment

  • Muffin Tin

Method
 

  1. Prep: First, preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with 12 paper liners.
  2. Crust: In a small bowl, mix the almond flour, melted butter, and salt. Divide among the 12 liners and press down firmly. Bake for 5 minutes. Remove and let cool slightly.
  3. Filling Base: Next, in a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and Greek yogurt until completely smooth and lump-free.
  4. Add Wet Ingredients: Add the maple syrup, eggs, and vanilla. Mix on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Bake: Pour the filling evenly over the crusts. Bake for 18-20 minutes until the centers are set but slightly jiggly.
  6. Chill: Remove from oven and cool in the pan for 30 minutes. Transfer to the refrigerator to chill for at least 2 hours to fully set.
