Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 325°F. In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup whole wheat graham cracker crumbs and 3 tbsp melted unsalted butter; stir until crumbs are evenly moistened. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form the crust.
  2. Step 2: In a large bowl, beat 8 oz cream cheese with 16 oz full-fat Greek yogurt until smooth and creamy using a hand mixer on medium speed for about 2 minutes.
  3. Step 3: Add 1/3 cup honey, 2 large eggs, and 1 tsp vanilla extract to the cream cheese mixture; beat on low speed until everything is fully incorporated and the batter is smooth.
  4. Step 4: Pour the batter over the prepared crust in the springform pan. Tap the pan gently on the counter to release any air bubbles.
  5. Step 5: Bake for 45-50 minutes until the edges are set but the center still slightly jiggles when shaken.
  6. Step 6: Remove from oven and let cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to fully set.
  7. Step 7: Just before serving, top the cheesecake with 1 cup mixed fresh berries evenly spread across the top.
