Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 7 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 16 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • ½ cup honey
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest
  • ½ cup chopped pistachios (for topping)
  • Additional honey (for drizzling)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and line an 8×8-inch pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and salt. Stir in the melted butter until moistened. Press into the bottom of the pan and bake for 8-10 minutes.
  3. Reduce the oven temperature to 325°F. In a large bowl, beat cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth.
  4. Add Greek yogurt, honey, eggs, vanilla extract, and lemon zest to the cream cheese. Mix until smooth.
  5. Pour the cheesecake filling over the cooled crust and smooth out with a spatula.
  6. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the edges are set and the center jiggles slightly.
  7. Allow to cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 3 hours.
  8. Drizzle with additional honey and sprinkle with chopped pistachios before serving.

Notes

Ensure cream cheese is at room temperature for smooth blending. Store in the fridge for up to 5 days or freeze for 2 months.
