How to Make Zero Sugar Greek Yogurt Cheesecake

Step 1 โ€“ Make the Crust

Mix crushed graham crackers with melted butter until the texture looks like wet sand. Press firmly into the bottom of a pan and place in the refrigerator while preparing the filling.

Step 2 โ€“ Bloom the Gelatin

In a small bowl, mix gelatin powder with 2 tablespoons water and let it sit for about 5 minutes until it thickens.

Step 3 โ€“ Mix Yogurt Filling

In a large bowl, mix Greek yogurt, powdered sweetener, lemon juice, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.

Step 4 โ€“ Melt Gelatin

Microwave the gelatin for about 10 seconds until liquid, then slowly mix it into the yogurt mixture while stirring.

Step 5 โ€“ Whip Cream

In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. This makes the cheesecake light and fluffy.

Step 6 โ€“ Combine

Fold the whipped cream gently into the yogurt mixture until smooth and airy.

Step 7 โ€“ Assemble Cheesecake

Pour the filling over the chilled crust and smooth the top with a spatula.

Step 8 โ€“ Chill

Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight until fully set.

Slice and serve cold.

Tips for Making It Perfect
