Ingredients

Cheesecake

  • 2 (5.3-oz.) containers plain Greek yogurt

  • 2 eggs

  • 1/4 cup sugar

Oat and Apple Crumble

  • 1/4 cup quick-cooking oats

  • 1/4 cup flour (Shibolim Whole Wheat Flour is ok)

  • 1/4 cup brown sugar

  • 2 tablespoons melted butter or 3 tablespoons melted whipped butter

  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon

  • 1 teaspoon Gefen Vanilla

  • 1 apple, peeled and finely diced

Low-Fat Caramel (Optional)

  • 1 cup sugar

  • 1/4 cup water

  • 1/2 cup milk

Directions

Make the Cheesecake

1.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.  

2.

In a blender, combine yogurt, eggs, sugar, and cornstarch. Blend until smooth. Pour into ramekins or mini Mason jars, filling a little more than halfway (the cheesecake will rise). Bake for 25 minutes.

3.

Refrigerate.

4.

Prepare the topping: In a baking dish, combine all crumble ingredients. Bake for 40 minutes.

5.

Top cheesecake with crumble.

Notes:

You can serve this with cold cheesecake and warm crumble, or refrigerate the entire dessert and serve at room temperature.

For the Caramel (Optional)

1.

Boil sugar with water until the mixture is a golden color.

2.

Lower heat and slowly whisk in milk, salt, and vanilla. Boil for one to two additional minutes to let mixture thicken.

3.

Drizzle each cheesecake with one teaspoon caramel.

Tips:

Store extra caramel in the refrigerator for another use. You can use it instead of sugar in your morning latte for the same calories.

Hi Yachy,
Yes! It just might be a little drier, and might take a trial or two until you get it just right. It’s hard to know exactly with baking. You can try adding a little more butter to moisten it.

Yogurt fat content Can non-fat yogurt be used? I would also like to know what kind of jars can be put in the oven. Yours are so pretty!

Yes, of course, I always use nonfat yogurt. Those are little Mason jars, the smallest size! They’re widely available and very versatile.

I get my Mason jars at Wegmans, but they should be widely available. Perhaps Walmart, or craft stores like Michaels or AC Moore…etc. I find that they’re more expensive online because they’re likely heavy to ship. (The little ones should be $8-$9 for a dozen)

Pan Can this be made in a pan instead of ramekins? What size pan does it fit? How long should it be cooked for? Thanks

Yes, that’s not a prob. The recipe will fill a standard pie pan (I use the same batter in a graham cracker pie crust as noted).

Hi! What can I use instead of the milk so that it shouldn’t be milky?

You can use coconut milk.
