🛒 Ingredients You’ll Need

Cottage Cheese (2% milk fat): This mild, creamy cheese is the secret to that rich cheesecake texture and high protein content.

Greek Yogurt (Full fat): Thick, tangy, and packed with protein — full fat makes these jars extra luscious.
Maple Syrup: Naturally sweetens the filling. You can sub in honey if you’d like.
Graham Crackers: Crushed to form the cheesecake “crust” layers.

Berries: Strawberries, blueberries, raspberries — any fresh fruit you love!

🥄 How to Make No-Bake Protein Cheesecake Jars

Blend the cottage cheese.
Add cottage cheese to a food processor and blend for 1–2 minutes until silky smooth. Add maple syrup and blend again to combine.
Mix with yogurt.
In a bowl, combine the blended cottage cheese with Greek yogurt using a spatula. This keeps the texture creamy and well-mixed without over-blending.

Layer your jars.
Start with crushed graham crackers, followed by cheesecake mixture, more graham crackers, chopped berries, and another layer of cheesecake mixture. Top with more berries if desired.
Serve or chill.
Enjoy right away or refrigerate with the lid on. Makes about 4 jars.

💡 Recipe Tips

Blend the cottage cheese first for the smoothest texture. Mixing both ingredients in the food processor can make the filling too loose.

Want smaller servings? Use mini jars and divide the recipe into more portions.
Adjust graham cracker quantity to your preference — more for a crustier bite, less for lower carbs.
These jars keep in the fridge for up to 3 days — perfect for weekly meal prep!

❄️ Storage Notes

Fridge: Store in sealed jars for up to 3 days.
Freezer: Not recommended — the texture may change after thawing.
