Healthy, Rich Cheesecake Made with Yogurt

 

Ingredients

Yogurt: 100g

・Egg: 1

・Honey: 1 tablespoon or more (adjust to taste)

・Rice flour: 2 tablespoons

How to cook

I used a slightly larger container this time, but a 400ml plastic container is recommended. First, put the yogurt, egg, and honey into the container.

Mix everything together, then add the rice flour. You can also add about a tablespoon of lemon juice at this stage.

Once the batter is ready, lift the container slightly and tap it against the counter to release any air bubbles.

Place the lid on loosely and microwave at 600W for about 2 minutes. (I used plastic wrap loosely draped over the top this time.)

After just 2 minutes, it already looks like cheesecake! Let it cool down a bit, then place it in the refrigerator.

Chill for about 2 to 3 hours, and it's ready to serve.
