Diet cheesecakes - 5 recipes for low-calorie cheesecakes made from cottage cheese

Recipe 1: steamed cheesecakes stuffed with fruit

These are not cheesecakes, these are real cheesecake desserts! And since now is the season for fresh fruit, I make cheesecakes with fillings - plum, pear, nectarine, grapes - you choose. And when there is no fruit, you can add a piece of chocolate or a spoonful of nut butter - after all, everyone loves surprises!

• Cottage cheese – 300 g
• Chicken egg - 1 pc.
• Semolina - 3 tbsp. l.
• Sugar - 3 tbsp. l.
• Turmeric – 1 pinch

Mix cottage cheese with egg, semolina, sugar and a pinch of turmeric to give it a pleasant yellow color. While the semolina swells, let’s get to the fruit.

Wash the nectarines, cut them and remove the seeds. Today I have small nectarines, I cut them in half, and if they are large, then feel free to divide them into 4 parts.

Place fruit on part of the curd mass and cover with the second part. From the amount of cottage cheese I received, I made 6 cheesecakes.

In a multicooker, boil water or pour boiling water and place a wire rack.

Let's put some cheesecakes. Close the lid and cook for 15 minutes in the “Steaming” or “Baking” mode; if you do not have these programs, then the “Porridge” mode will do.

Sprinkle the cheesecakes with powdered sugar and garnish with mint, tarragon or lemon balm. If you cook without fruit filling, you can serve jam, sour cream, and honey with the cheesecakes.

General principles

For cooking in a multicooker, as a rule, the “frying” or “baking” programs are used. In this case, the cheesecakes taste little different from those fried in a frying pan. You will have to fry in batches, since 3-4 cheesecakes fit into the bowl.

You can prepare cheesecakes using the “steaming” program. This is a dietary option; cheesecakes do not have a crispy crust that is harmful to the stomach, and in addition, no oil is used for cooking.

Interesting facts: cottage cheese is useful for almost all people. Children are recommended to eat it to prevent rickets, athletes - to quickly gain muscle mass, and the elderly - to prevent the development of osteoporosis. Low-fat cottage cheese is an important dietary product.

We prepare cheesecakes to your taste

Do you think it is possible to steam cheesecakes without a steamer? Of course yes. Just take a pan and fill it with water. We install a grill on top or stretch gauze. Place the cheesecakes on top of the grill, cover the dish with a lid and simmer until fully cooked. A small nuance: the water must constantly boil.

You can cook dumplings in the same way.

Compound:

• 400 g sweet cheese;
• 8 tbsp. l. sifted flour;
• 2 eggs;
• 50 g butter.

Preparation:

• Let's take sweet cheeses. You can choose vanilla, raisin, chocolate, caramel. In general, no one limits your choice.
• Beat the eggs into a separate bowl.

• Add the cheeses and stir everything thoroughly.
• Now we send all the other ingredients there.
• Attention: add only 6 tbsp. l. flour, and we will need the rest for breading.

• We make cheesecakes and roll them in flour.

• Place a pot of water on the stove in advance.
• As soon as it boils, place cheesecakes on cheesecloth or mesh.
• Cover the lid and cook the cheesecakes for 10-15 minutes. You can stop by and check the condition of the curds.
• We serve delicious and, most importantly, healthy cottage cheese with sour cream or fruit syrup.

The advantage of steaming cheesecakes is their low calorie content. No need to use oil. Steam treatment will preserve the original taste and beneficial properties of the cottage cheese. Cheesecakes turn out unusually soft, aromatic and juicy. Do you like culinary experiments? Try adding fruit or berries. There are many recipes for making cottage cheese without eggs and flour. They are ideal for those who are on a diet. Bon appetit!

Diet cheesecakes in the oven

To prepare, you need to stock up on sweetener (4 tablets), two eggs, vanillin, four teaspoons of bran, five grams of baking powder and five hundred grams of low-fat cottage cheese. Baking powder, vanillin, eggs, bran and cottage cheese should be mixed until smooth. Sweetener tablets should be dissolved in a small amount of water. After this, sweet water must be poured into the mixture and mixed thoroughly. The finished dough must be divided into forms, which in turn are placed on a baking sheet. The baking sheet must be placed in the oven, preheated to 180 degrees. Diet cheesecakes are cooked in the oven for twenty minutes until a golden crust appears on the surface.

Cooking from cottage cheese in a double boiler

Even novice housewives can prepare cottage cheese pancakes in a double boiler. The main thing is to follow the basic rule: the cottage cheese for such cheesecakes should be rather dry.

If you use a product with a high moisture content, there is a risk of getting a shapeless mass at the end of cooking.

Ingredients:

• cottage cheese - 600 g;
• vegetable oil - 1 tbsp. l;
• eggs - 2-3 pcs.;
• sugar - 3 tbsp. l;
• vanilla sugar - 3 g.

5. After 25 minutes, place the finished cheesecakes on a dish, cool and serve.

Before serving, they can be sprinkled with ground cinnamon to add a spicy taste and aroma.

Dietary cottage cheese pancakes

If you are on a diet, you should use a low-fat or low-fat product to prepare this dish. Diet cheesecakes made from cottage cheese will be much tastier if, during preparation, the cottage cheese is mixed with yogurt and blended with a blender. In order not to add extra calories to the dish, you should cook the dish in the oven, slow cooker, microwave, or fry the cheesecakes without oil in a non-stick frying pan. As a last resort, you can lightly grease the pan with vegetable oil. When preparing dietary cheesecakes, flour should be replaced with ground oatmeal or chopped bran. To add sweetness, you can add dried fruits or a sugar substitute.

cheesecakes in a steamer recipe with photos

Curd pancakes (also called cheese pancakes or cottage cheese pancakes) are popular with both children and adults. The recipe for their preparation is completely simple and familiar to many housewives. Most of them fry them in oil in frying pans the old fashioned way. This method of preparing dessert is not suitable for people with diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, as well as for those who care about their health, and it is not suitable for baby food.

The ideal way to prepare this delicious delicacy is steaming. Modern double boilers allow you to do this easily and quickly, while preserving most of the microelements and vitamins included in the products. Even those who don’t know how to cook can cook delicious cheesecakes in a double boiler. They turn out very tender and appetizing. The difference in taste between fried and steamed dessert is quite difficult to notice.

The cottage cheese for these pancakes should be a little dry. If there is excess moisture in it, then you need to wait, wrapping it in a gauze napkin until it drains. If you rub the cottage cheese through a sieve, then, due to the absence of grains, its consistency will be more uniform, and the taste of the finished dessert will become similar to a delicate cottage cheese soufflé.

The recipe is simple. So, you will need:

• 0.5 kg cottage cheese,
• 2 eggs,
• 2 tbsp. l. Sahara,
• 1-2 tbsp. l. flour,
• 0.5 tsp. salt,
• berries (cherries or currants, frozen).

Mix all ingredients thoroughly (except berries) or beat with a blender. We form the cheesecakes correctly: dust our hands with flour, take the curd mass and make a “cake”, put a few berries and a little sugar on it, pinch it and prepare the balls. Place them, after rolling them in flour, into silicone muffin tins greased with butter. Place in a double boiler and cook for about 15-20 minutes. When laying out the cheesecakes, you need to take into account that during cooking they will increase slightly in size.

You can add raisins, pieces of dried apricots or other dried fruits to the cottage cheese.

When the cheesecakes are ready, let them cool in the steamer. Then remove from the molds; when serving, it is advisable to pour them with sour cream or some tasty sauce (berry, caramel).

Place cottage cheese in a bowl. Take soft, non-acidic cottage cheese: it will grind better, and products made from it will turn out tastier. Add egg, sugar and salt.

Using an immersion blender, grind the mass well, making it homogeneous. If there is no such unit, then thoroughly rub the mixture with a spoon.

Add cornmeal, baking powder and vanilla.

Stir.

Prepare steamer containers. Lubricate them from the inside with oil. With lightly oiled hands, form small round thick cheesecakes. Place them in the basket at a distance from each other. Keep in mind that during cooking they will rise well and expand in width.
