Baked Pumpkin Cheesecake—Prototype 5 (Single Recipe Size):
2-to-1 Blend of Yogurt Cheese and Cottage Cheese:
Prepare ahead of time 1 pound of yogurt cheese, derived from one 32-ounce
container of nonfat yogurt. If the resulting yogurt cheese falls below 16
ounces, add back enough of the whey (that was strained out from the yogurt) to
make up the difference. To this yogurt cheese combine 8 ounces (1 cup) of
whipped, lowfat cottage cheese.
Crust:
1 oz. melted, white chocolate
2 oz. pumpkin butter (such as from Trader Joe's)
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon vanilla
4 oz. (1/2 cup) 2-to-1 blend of yogurt cheese and cottage cheese (see above)
1.1 oz. Bran Buds, ground up
Pour this crust mixture into pan (9 to 9 1/2 inches) and pre-bake without tub at
300 degrees for 5 minutes, then cool enough to comfortably touch at least the
pan's upper sidewall.
Batter:
2 tablespoons melted or softened butter
1/2 cup granulated sugar
7 oz. pumpkin butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 1/2 tablespoons arrowroot
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 1/2 cups (20 oz.) 2-to-1 blend of yogurt cheese and cottage cheese (see above)
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 eggs
Pour on top of crust. Then bake in tub at 300 degrees for 60 minutes (if using a
9 1/2" pan), cool (outside of oven and tub) for an hour, remove from pan
and refrigerate.
