Vanilla and Banana Creme Protein Cheesecake

Last week I posted a recipe for a Chocolate Peanut Butter protein cheesecake. It turned out great (after some trial and error) so I decided to try some variations. This weekend I concocted this cheesecake recipe and it turned out absolutely amazing! If you are a fan of banana, I guarantee you will love this!


What you need:
  • 1 1/2 blocks of fat free cream cheese (12 oz's)
  • 10 oz's of plain greek yogurt (if you buy individual cups, it's usually 1 and a half containers)
  • 1/2 of a banana
  • 1/2 cup of Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk
  • 10 packs of Stevia
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
  • 2 scoops of vanilla protein powder
  • 2 tablespoons of sugar and fat free banana creme pudding mix
  • *Optional: Reduced fat graham cracker pieces for topping
Directions:
  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees
  • Spray pie pan with nonstick spray and set aside
  • In a large mixing bowl add cream cheese and banana then soften with a spoon
  • Add Stevia and eggs and mix on a low setting with mixer
  • Add the rest of the ingredients and blend altogether with a mixer on a medium setting until well blended and you have a creamy, thick texture
  • Pour batter into pie pan and bake for 25 minutes
  • Once the 25 minutes is up, set oven to 200 degrees and bake for another hour
  • Using a potholder, pull the pie out of the own and refrigerate for 3-4 hours then serve and enjoy!
