Ingredients
Cheesecake Ingredients
- 2 ripe bananas (about 7 oz / 200 g total)
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup (240 g) Greek yogurt (5% fat recommended)
- Granulated sweetener (optional, for a sweeter flavor)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 360°F (180°C) and prepare a round baking mold by lining it with parchment paper or greasing it lightly with oil to prevent sticking.
- Mash the bananas: In a large bowl, thoroughly mash the ripe bananas until smooth and creamy, ensuring there are no large lumps for a consistent texture.
- Combine ingredients: Add the eggs and Greek yogurt to the mashed bananas. Using a fork or whisk, stir the mixture well until you achieve a smooth, lump-free batter. If you prefer a sweeter cheesecake, add granulated sweetener to taste and mix thoroughly.
- Transfer and level: Pour the batter into the prepared baking mold, spreading it evenly so the cheesecake cooks uniformly.
- Bake the cheesecake: Place the mold on the middle rack of the preheated oven. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the cheesecake is set and cooked through the center (it should no longer jiggle).
- Cool and chill: Remove the cheesecake from the oven and allow it to cool to room temperature. Once cooled, refrigerate it for at least 4 hours to let it firm up and develop the best texture before serving.
Notes
- If you want a sweeter cheesecake, you can add a granulated sweetener like erythritol or stevia.
- Make sure bananas are ripe for natural sweetness and better flavor.
- Use full-fat Greek yogurt for richer texture and creaminess.
- Refrigerating the cheesecake for at least 4 hours is essential to achieve the right firmness and slice cleanly.
- This cheesecake is best served chilled and consumed within 3 days for optimal freshness.
