Ingredients

Scale
  • 16 oz cream cheese (softened)
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt (plain, low-fat or full fat)
  • 1/2 cup sugar substitute (like Stevia or erythritol)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
  • Zest from 1 lemon
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • Optional: gluten-free graham cracker crumbs for crust

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C) or set your air fryer to a similar temperature.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, blend the softened cream cheese and sugar substitute until smooth and creamy.
  3. Add in the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, lemon zest, vanilla extract, and salt—mix until well combined.
  4. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, mixing until fully incorporated.
  5. If using a crust, press the graham cracker crumbs into a greased springform pan; if not, pour the cheesecake filling directly into the greased pan.
  6. Bake in the oven for 45-50 minutes or in the air fryer for about 25-30 minutes, or until the center is slightly jiggly and edges are set.
  7. Let it cool for at least 30 minutes at room temperature before refrigerating for at least 4 hours or overnight for the best texture.

Notes
