Lemon-Blueberry High Protein Cheesecake
Indulge in a refreshing and protein-packed snack or dessert that’s as healthy as it is delicious!
Lemon-Blueberry High Protein Cheesecake combines the creaminess of cheesecake with the brightness of lemon and the sweetness of blueberries. This dessert is a protein powerhouse that will keep you full and satisfied.
But don’t let the protein content fool you – this cheesecake is incredibly creamy and smooth, thanks to the cottage cheese and eggs. And with a hint of lemon zest and a sprinkle of blueberries, each bite is a burst of citrusy freshness and sweetness.
Plus, the almond meal adds a delightful crunch and texture.
The best part? This cheesecake is surprisingly easy to make and requires minimal prep time. Simply blend the ingredients, pour into ramekins, and bake until golden. Enjoy warm or cooled.
Treat yourself to a healthier dessert option that’s both nourishing and indulgent.
Try our Lemon-Blueberry High Protein Cheesecake tonight and experience the perfect balance of flavor and nutrition!
I love including protein and healthy fat in our snacks, treats, and desserts because both protein and fat are very satisfying macronutrients. When we feel nicely satisfied, we’re less likely to overeat.
Make a batch for dessert tonight!
Our Lemon-Blueberry High Protein Cheesecake makes for an AWESOME after-school or after-workout treat too!
-> I used “Just Ingredients” protein powder in vanilla flavor for this High Protein Cheesecake.
Why is the Just Ingredients Protein Powder & collagen our FAVORITE option?
The protein comes from 5 sources: 100% super high-quality grass-fed whey, pea protein, pumpkin seed, chia seeds and collagen.
There is a lot less whey compared to normal protein powders so it may be easier on the stomach than other protein powders!
Free from sugar, gluten, artificial sweeteners or any artificial ingredients.

⁉️What do YOU think about COTTAGE CHEESE?
It’s one of those “love it or hate it” kinds of foods.
It’s been up and down the food popularity scale … but it’s always held a top spot on many “healthy foods” lists.
It’s low in calories and fat, high in protein, packed with calcium, and full of nutrients. It’s also a solid source of vitamin B12, selenium, riboflavin, phosphorus, and folate.
✅FUN FACT: Nearly 70% of the calories in cottage cheese come from the casein protein, which includes all of the essential amino acids the body needs for muscle growth & repair.
Plus, it’s slow to digest, so it can keep you feeling full for hours after you eat.
It’s also versatile – eaten alone, with fruit and nuts as a snack, or in recipes.
😊 Many varieties also contain gut-friendly probiotics. Be sure to check the label. My ABSOLUTE favorite brands are “Nancy’s Organic” and “Good Culture”.
👀 Other things to look for on the label: If possible, choose an organic brand from grass-fed cows, with few added ingredients.
