Made with simple, wholesome ingredients that are easy to customize, these bites are gluten-free and ideal for busy lifestyles seeking a healthy treat.

Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • Greek yogurt powder – quantity as needed to add creamy tang and protein
  • Dried blueberries – quantity as desired for chewy sweet bursts
  • Vanilla protein powder – quantity to provide balanced protein and flavor
  • Almond flour – quantity to bind mixture and add subtle nuttiness
  • Chia seeds (optional) – 1 tablespoon for crunch and omega-3 benefits

Wet Ingredients

  • Cream cheese (or plant-based alternative) – softened, about 4 ounces
  • Honey or maple syrup – 1 to 2 tablespoons for natural sweetness

Instructions

  1. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, mix Greek yogurt powder, vanilla protein powder, almond flour, and dried blueberries to create your base dry blend.
  2. Blend Creamy Components: In a separate bowl, soften the cream cheese and whisk in honey or maple syrup until smooth and creamy to add moisture and the signature cheesecake flavor.
  3. Mix Everything Together: Gradually add the creamy mixture into the dry ingredients, folding gently to distribute blueberries evenly without crushing them. Mix until a sticky dough forms that holds its shape but isn’t overly wet.
  4. Shape Into Bites: Using your hands or a small scoop, roll the dough into 1-inch balls and place them on a lined baking sheet or tray.
  5. Chill to Set: Refrigerate the formed bites for at least 30 minutes to firm up and develop flavors before enjoying or storing.

Notes

  • Use cold cream cheese for easier mixing and smoother texture.
  • Don’t overmix; fold gently to keep blueberries intact and avoid drying out the mixture.
  • Adjust sweetness carefully, adding honey or syrup one tablespoon at a time based on protein powder flavor and personal taste.
  • Add chia seeds at the end to prevent clumping and distribute evenly.
  • Store bites in airtight containers to keep them fresh longer and preserve texture.
