Ingredients

Crust

1 cup almond flour
¼ cup brown sugar
½ teaspoon cinnamon
4 tablespoons butter melted

Filling

8 ounces Neufchâtel cream cheese ⅓ less fat cream cheese
¾ cup 0% non fat greek yogurt (6 ounces)
¼ cup honey
2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

Note: It is very important that these ingredients are brought to room temperature for the smoothest filling. If you don’t, your filing won’t be as smooth.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Stir together all crust ingredients until a coarse sand-like texture forms. Line a 12 cup muffin pan with foil or silicone muffin liners.
Press about 1.5 tablespoons of the crust mix into each of the 12 muffin cups. Depending on how fine your almond flour was, you might have some left over.Just distribute it evenly and cover the entire bottom of all the cups.
Bake for 13-14 minutes at 350 until the edges start to brown a tiny bit.
Remove crusts from the oven and allow the crust to cool while you prepare the filling.
In the bowl of a stand mixer or with a hand mixer- use your whisk attachment (if available otherwise regular beaters are fine) and whip the mixture on high speed for 5-6 minutes until everything is incorporated.
When your crust is completely cool, scoop 3 tablespoons of filling into each of the muffin cups.
You will be able to fill 10 of the cups ¾ of the way. Take the other 2 crusts, remove from the pan, crumble them up and set aside for garnishment.
Put the cheesecakes into the fridge and chill for 6-8 hours or overnight.
