Ingredients
  

1 cup Greek yogurt (plain, low-fat or fat-free)

1 cup cream cheese (light, softened)

1/2 cup protein powder (vanilla flavor)

1/3 cup honey or maple syrup

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 teaspoon lemon juice

1 cup crushed graham crackers (or nut-based crust for a gluten-free option)

2 tablespoons melted coconut oil (for crust)

Fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries, or raspberries) for topping

Optional: a sprinkle of cinnamon or chopped nuts for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the Crust: In a mixing bowl, combine the crushed graham crackers and melted coconut oil. Mix until well combined. Divide the mixture evenly among the bottom of your jars. Press firmly to create a crust layer.

    Make the Cheesecake Filling: In a large mixing bowl, blend the Greek yogurt, softened cream cheese, protein powder, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, and lemon juice using an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Scrape down the sides as needed to ensure everything is fully incorporated.

      Layer the Jars: Spoon or pipe the cheesecake filling on top of the crust in each jar. Smooth the top with a spatula.

        Chill: Seal the jars with lids or plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, allowing the cheesecake to set.

          Serve: Before serving, top each jar with fresh berries and a sprinkle of cinnamon or chopped nuts, if desired.

            Enjoy: Dig into this delicious, protein-packed dessert that tastes indulgent but is incredibly healthy!
