Ingredients

Cheesecake Base:

  • 8 oz cream cheese I used fat-free
  • 3 tbsp egg whites (46g)
  • ¼ cup zero-calorie pancake syrup I used Walden Farm's pancake syrup
  • 1/2 cup snickerdoodle or vanilla protein powder (65g) I used Pescience
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour (60g) use gluten-free if needed
  • ½ tsp baking powder
  • 3 tbsp zero-calorie sweetener

Cinnamon Sugar Swirl:

  • ½ tbsp cinnamon or sprinkle desired amount
  • 1 tsp zero-calorie sweetener or sprinkle desired amount

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 F. Spray a pie pan of springform pan with cooking spray.
  • In a medium size bowl, add the cream cheese, syrup, and egg whites. Using a hand mixer or kitchen aid mixer, cream the wet ingredients until they are well mixed and the cream cheese is smooth.
  • Add in the protein powder, flour, baking powder, and sweetener, and mix again until all the ingredients are mixed together thoroughly.
  • Pour batter into the pan and spread the mixture out evenly. Sprinkle with the cinnamon and sugar topping evenly across. Using a knife, pull through the batter a few times to create a swirl-like effect through the cheesecake.
  • Bake for roughly 30 minutes. When done, take out, let cool completely, then store in the fridge overnight.
  • When ready, cut into 8 slices, and enjoy!

Notes

If you don't have snickerdoodle or a cinnamon-flavored protein powder, you can simply use your favorite vanilla and add 1/2 tsp of cinnamon.
