    blackberry lemon cheesecake bites in a muffin tin

    cheesecake has become one of my favorite desserts. if they have it on the dessert menu at a restaurant, i'm definitely ordering it!

    FUN FACT : i had never made cheesecake myself until testing this recipe! and dare i say that it came out amazing?! it really did!

    i'm so excited to share these blackberry lemon cheesecake bites with you. they're perfect for a summer bbq or family gathering.

    main ingredients used in this recipe

    • cream cheese
    • greek yogurt
    • graham crackers
    • butter
    • lemon
    • blackberries

    ways to make the graham cracker crumbs

    there are two ways you could make the graham cracker crumbs. the first, adding the graham crackers into a food processor. pulse until they're a fine texture and no large chunks.

    the second way you can do it is how i like to when i don't want to clean extra dishes 🙂

    all you have to do is add the graham cracker pieces to a ziploc bag, grab a rolling pin and start banging away! crush the graham cracker until a fine crumb and no large chunks!

    frequently asked questions

    is this cheesecake recipe gluten free?

    yes, it is! it is naturally gluten free and no flour is used in this recipe.

    can i use other fruits instead of blackberry on top?

    yes, you can! i would suggest fresh blueberries or strawberries to have as the topping if you prefer to not use blackberries. make sure to add thin slices of the strawberry or just a couple of blueberries. adding too much or too heavy of a piece will cause it to sink.

    do i have to add the lemon juice?

    yes! this adds a delicious lemon flavor to the cheesecake. in addition, the acidity from the lemon plays an important role in creating the thickness and classic cheesecake texture.

    can i use vegan substitutes?

    yes! replace the regular cream cheese and greek yogurt with vegan substitutes. for the egg, make a flax egg by combining 1 tbsp flax seed with 2 tbsp water (let sit for 10 min before adding into the batter).

    how should i store leftovers

    store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week or in the freezer for 2 months.

    graham cracker crust

    • combine the graham cracker crumbs with the melted butter until fully combined. the texture should be sandy but ground fine.

    • scoop ~2-3 tbsp of the cheesecake batter into each muffin liner on top of the graham cracker crust. (it should be close to the top of the muffin liner with a little bit of space!)
    • bang the muffin pan on the counter to get rid of all air bubbles
    • add ½ of a blackberry on the top of each mini cheesecake

    i have never met anyone who didn’t like pop tart i have never met anyone who didn’t like pop tarts growing up, have you?

let me introduce you to my adult version of this childhood favorite. i use lantanafoods Dark Chocolate Hummus as the filling and it was a dream come true 🍫 it adds just the right amount of sweetness, taking me right back to my childhood but without the sugar hangover 🤪

HOW TO MAKE ⬇️ 
1. cut two rectangles out of pre-made pie dough
2. add about 2 tbsp of hummus in the center and spread it out a little without going to the edges
3. press along the four sides with a fork
4. bake in the oven at 425 degrees F for 10-12 minutes or until the dough is golden and fully baked through
5. cool slightly and enjoy!
