High Protein Strawberry Cheesecake Jar – The Creamy, Guilt-Free Treat You’ll Want Every Day

- ½ cup 2% cottage cheese
High in protein and blends into a silky-smooth texture when processed. - 2 strawberries
These give the blended base its natural pink color and fresh flavor. - 1–2 tablespoons honey or agave
Adds just the right sweetness—adjust to taste. - ¾ cup plain 2% Greek yogurt
Another protein powerhouse. Use full-fat for extra creaminess or 0% for lower calories. - ½ cup sliced strawberries (plus extra for topping)
Fresh strawberry slices bring brightness and texture to each layer. - ¼ cup granola
Crunchy and satisfying—choose low sugar or protein granola to boost the benefits. - 1 graham cracker sheet, broken into pieces
Brings that authentic cheesecake crust flavor and texture.
Step 1: Blend the Cottage Cheese
In a high-speed blender or food processor, add the cottage cheese. Blend on high for 30–60 seconds, until completely smooth and creamy. This turns the usually grainy texture into something that feels like a rich cheesecake filling.
Tip: Scrape down the sides and blend again if needed for full smoothness.
Step 2: Add Strawberries and Sweetener
Add the 2 strawberries and 1–2 tablespoons of honey or agave to the blended cottage cheese. Pulse just until the mixture turns light pink. Avoid over-blending—too much and the strawberries will become watery.
Step 3: Stir in Greek Yogurt
Transfer the strawberry cottage cheese mixture to a mixing bowl. Add ¾ cup Greek yogurt and stir until fully combined. The yogurt thickens the base and adds extra protein, making the mix smooth, tangy, and ultra-creamy.
Step 4: Assemble the Jar
Get creative! In a jar, glass, or bowl, start layering:
- A few spoonfuls of the creamy strawberry cheesecake mixture
- A handful of sliced strawberries
- A sprinkle of granola
- Some graham cracker pieces
Repeat layers until the jar is full, then finish with a few extra strawberries or a drizzle of honey.
Tip: Use mason jars for a portable breakfast or snack on the go.
Step 5: Serve or Store
You can enjoy it immediately (especially if the berries are juicy and the granola is crunchy) or store it in the fridge for later. It stays fresh for up to 2 days when covered.
For the best texture, add granola just before eating so it stays crunchy.
