Sasha does it again! Our favorite KZread chef never fails to deliver. This looks like another winner that uses the tang of Greek yogurt and offers us a lighter, healthier dessert. (I'm wondering if the crust/crackers mix might be used for a regular pie crust? My attempts at making pie crust with oats and oat flour have been pathetic, but I don't like the idea of using regular flour.) Thank you for this one, Sasha! It will be on our menu this week for sure!

I'm a huge cheesecake lover too, and I think this healthier version is the closest I've ever come to the traditional cheesecake, enjoyed both so much the taste and the texture. And that strained Greek yogurt is really a game-changer... Thanks for your feedback!

I stumbled upon your channel and have to say you're brilliant! Thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge. Can't wait to try a bunch of your recipes.

Two tips: --Crushing cookies in a food processor might scratch the plastic bowl --Don't toss the whey....it can be mixed into most batters, adding a bit of tang. Looks very good and easy to bring to a pot luck. The strained yogurt is also used as cheese in some cultures---flavored with olive oil, herbs, seasonings or spread plain on bread topped with honey, jam, or fresh fruit.

In most of these recipes stevia or another sugarfree sweetener is a must for me. The greek yogurt requires quite a bit of sweetener imo to be compareable with "regular" versions of these meals.

I guess silken tofu would work well, but don't know about complementing the flavors.

Mate i am sorry, but with adding heavy cream in there you added fat and maybe even more than using special types cream cheese... The honey and maple syrup is still a bit more complex sugars but still sugar molecules non the less and over all some sort of sweetener would be a big improvement... So a cup of yogurt and cheese cream mix with chia seeds with stevia , an oat base of some sort with maybe chia seeds to be firm again and a diabetic friendly jam would do wonders to make this maybe not as pretty but definitely a healthier twist in my humble opinion
