Matcha Green Tea Cheesecake
This earthy and delicious matcha green tea cheesecake offers a satisfying combination of creamy richness and subtle, vegetal bitterness, all while delivering a powerful protein punch with 22 grams per serving. The velvety texture melts in your mouth, complemented by a delicate, slightly grassy flavor that is beautifully balanced with a hint of sweetness. Perfect as a post-workout treat or a nutritious dessert, it provides sustained energy and helps support muscle recovery thanks to its high protein content. With only 190 calories per serving, it fits seamlessly into a balanced diet, and its gluten-free crust can easily be adapted with gluten-free graham crackers or nut-based options for those with dietary restrictions. For vegans, substituting the dairy components with plant-based alternatives like coconut cream and vegan protein powder maintains the creamy texture and nutritional benefits. To achieve the best results, ensure the matcha powder is well sifted to avoid clumps, and chill the cheesecake thoroughly before serving for a firm, sliceable consistency. Whether enjoyed as a mindful treat after a workout or prepared in advance for meal prep, this cheesecake offers a delightful way to indulge without guilt while boosting your daily protein intake.
