    HEALTHY PUMPKIN CHEESECAKE RECIPE
    Ingredients:
    For the Pumpkin Cake Batter:
    1 1/4 cups ground oats or oat flour (125g)
    1 tbsp cornstarch
    1 tsp baking soda
    1 tsp ground cinnamon
    1 tsp pumpkin spice
    1/4 tsp salt
    2 large eggs
    1/4 cup maple syrup or agave (60ml)
    1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce (65g)
    1 cup pumpkin puree (250g)
    For the Cheesecake Filling:
    1 cup ricotta cheese (250g)
    1 cup Greek yogurt (250g)
    1/4 cup maple syrup or agave (60ml)
    2 teaspoons vanilla extract
    2 large eggs
    1 tablespoon oat flour
    For the Frosting:
    250g strained Greek yogurt
    1 tbsp honey
    NUTRITIONAL INFO (per slice):
    177 calories, fat 4.8g, carb 23.7g, protein 10.1g
    Instructions:
    Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C).
    For the pumpkin cake batter, in a bowl, combine the dry ingredients: oat flour, cornstarch, baking soda, ground cinnamon, pumpkin spice, and salt.
    In another bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients: eggs, maple syrup (or agave), applesauce, and pumpkin puree.
    Add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and mix just until combined.
    For the cheesecake filling, in a separate bowl, whisk together the ricotta cheese, Greek yogurt, maple syrup (or agave), and vanilla extract. Mix until creamy.
    Gradually add the eggs one at a time and incorporate the oat flour, taking care not to overmix the filling.
    Spoon about 1.5 cups of the pumpkin cake batter into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan.
    Alternate spoonfuls of the cheesecake filling and the remaining pumpkin cake batter until all the mixture is used.
    Gently shake the pan to even out the batter.
    Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 60 minutes or until the cake is set, but cheesecake filling still creamy.
    Allow the cake to cool at room temperature.
    Once cooled, refrigerate it for at least 4 hours to let the flavors meld and the cake set.
    For the frosting, in a bowl, mix the strained Greek yogurt and honey until well combined.
    Spread the yogurt and honey frosting evenly over the chilled cake.
    Return the cake to the fridge for an additional hour to let the frosting firm up.
    Slice the cake into 12 equal pieces and serve.
    Enjoy!

    Yum! It's fall here and everything is pumpkin, so a great time for this amazing dessert from our favorite 5-star UA-cam chef. I noticed you are giving those of us in the US a tutorial on measuring with the metric system--thank goodness for Google! I have all the ingredients on hand except the spring form pan, so that will be on my shopping list this week. I know Sasha has created another winner. Thank you! 🥰 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 😎

      Hi Laura! We're all about the fall treats here too, last night I made a pumpkin risotto for dinner, so there's more fall recipes to come. Sorry about the measurings, I'll cover both in my future videos. Enjoy the season and I hope you'll love this cheesecake-cake combo. Thanks for all of your support! Take care!

      I definitely fell in love with this cheesecake and cake combination, I think it could work for other flavor variations as well. It's never enough of leftover pumpkin puree ideas, I made a risotto but still have some left in the jar:)

      Hi Hazel! Same thing is here in Croatia, but this is even better than a classic pumpkin pie, or cheesecake in my opinion, it has that pumpkin cinnamony flavor with all the delicious vanilla cheesecake, it's definitely worth trying. Have a great day, Happy Halloween!

    • @HowToCookSmarter
      @HowToCookSmarter  7 місяців тому +1

      Glad you like it! Well, for the cheesecake filling I suggest you use some cornstarch to thicken up the cheesecake part, and for the pumpkin cake you can use some more applesauce and extra pumpkin puree, but make sure the batter is thick enough.

    Hi Sasha, Thank you for this recipe. I made it tonight and wanted to share some feedback. First, I loved it - pumpkin, oats, creamy filling - was very delicious! One thing is I found it a bit too 'eggy' for me. The creamy part turned out more like an omelet flavour. Next time I'll reduce to 1 egg for the cream-cheese part. I'm wondering if you have any other suggestion to help with this? Thank you kindly, A

      Hi Susan! It's whole milk ricotta cheese, but you can use lighter options if you want to.

    Is it ok to use squash instead of pumpkin?

    • @HowToCookSmarter
      @HowToCookSmarter  7 місяців тому

      Yes, that would be fine, but because of its higher water content I suggest you remove some of the moisture first, as you can see in the video I do that by cooking it off for a few minutes.
