Strawberry and Gojiberry Protein Custard Cheesecake

What’s a protein custard cheesecake? It’s kind of like a cross between Custard, a Cheesecake, and a thick syrupy Cake.

This unique combination is an adventurous baking idea which combines these classic dessert options. It may seem a bit quirky but why not give it a try!

Discover the recipe for a Strawberry and Gojiberry Protein Custard Cheesecake below…


Strawberry and Gojiberry Protein Custard Cheesecake

Ingredients for the base:

5 Brazil nuts
1 tablespoon coconut flour
1/8 cup pea protein powder
1/2 whole egg
1/8 cup milk
1 teaspoon toffee flavdrops

Ingredients for the cheesecake:

1 pot low-fat yogurt (427 grams)
1 whole egg
1/4 cup goji berries
1/4 cup strawberry whey protein powder (could try with casein too)

Directions:

1. Blend all the base ingredients together and press the ensuing mix on a small cheesecake tin.

2. Bake this in the oven at about 180 C (356 F) until it cooks through and has browned a bit. Once the base is done, make your custard cheesecake by mixing all the ingredients together using a handheld blender, a mixer, or a food processor.

3. Pour the cheesecake mix on top of the crust at bake at 160 C (320F) for about 1.5 hours or until the top has become golden in colour and it’s cooked enough that you can press it and your hand doesn’t sink into the mix (does that make sense?) Then, leave it in the (turned-off) oven for another hour and a half (this will allow it to further set).
