Ingredients

• 8 sheets Low-fat graham crackers
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 16 ounces Low-fat cream cheese
• 1 cup Greek yogurt (non-fat, plain)
• 0.5 cup Lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
• 1 tablespoon Lemon zest
• 0.33 cup Honey
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 packet Gelatin powder (unflavored)
• 3 tablespoons Cold water

Directions

Step 1

Prepare the crust by crushing the graham crackers into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a resealable plastic bag and rolling with a rolling pin.

Step 2

Melt the butter in the microwave or over low heat, then mix it with the graham cracker crumbs until evenly combined.

Step 3

Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form the crust, then place it in the refrigerator to set while preparing the filling.

Step 4

In a small bowl, sprinkle the gelatin powder over cold water and let it bloom for 5 minutes. Then gently heat the bowl in the microwave for 10-15 seconds or until the gelatin dissolves completely. Set aside to cool slightly.

Step 5

In a large mixing bowl, beat the low-fat cream cheese, Greek yogurt, lemon juice, lemon zest, honey, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.

Step 6

Slowly pour in the cooled gelatin mixture while continuing to beat the filling to ensure it’s incorporated evenly.

Step 7

Pour the cheesecake filling over the prepared crust in the springform pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.

Step 8

Refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours or preferably overnight until it sets firm.

Step 9

Once set, garnish with additional lemon zest or fresh lemon slices if desired. Slice and serve chilled!
