Materials

  • 6 Sheets Graham Cracker
  • 3 Tablespoons Butter Melted

Cheesecake Bars

  • ½ Cup Rolled Oats

  • 1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 3 Ounces Greek Yogurt
  • 1 ½ Cups Cottage Cheese
US Customary - Metric

Instructions

Optional Crust

  • Crush up your Graham Cracker sheets into crumbs (I use a rolling pin to do this)
  • Mix together your crumbs and melted Butter
  • Press your mix firmly into the bottom of an optionally lined baking dish or pan (I used 8x8)
  • Bake on 375F/190C for 12-15 minutes or until it starts to turn golden brown

Protein Cheesecake Bars

  • Add all of your ingredients into either a food processor or powerful blender
  • Process or blend everything together until smooth
  • Evenly distribute your mix on top of your crust
  • Optionally add whatever you want to the top like some Chocolate Chips
  • Bake on 325F/162C for around 30-35 minutes
  • Remove it from the oven, let it cool, and put it into the fridge for a couple hours (optimal cheesecake texture)
