Healthy Cheesecake Bites

Ingredients:
Crust-
– 2 cups oats
– 4 tbsp. coconut oil
– 4 tbsp. water
– 1 tbsp. honey
– Pinch of salt
Filling-
– 2 cups Producers Low Fat Cottage Cheese
– 1 tsp. vanilla
– 2 tbsp. honey

– Top with fresh or frozen berries for added fun!

Instructions:
– Start with the crust. Grind the oats into a flour. Blend with melted coconut oil – you’ll get crumbles. Add honey, a pinch of salt and 3-4 tbsp water, so you get a dough – make sure it’s still crumbly, not too smooth and sticky.

– Spread in cupcake forms. It takes 8 pieces – separate the dough in 8 equal parts. Then spread each part in these forms with your fingers, working your way to the sides from the middle and pressing patiently. Bake at 425 F for about 20 Minutes, but keep an eye on them – should turn golden brown, but not too brown. Let chill for about 1 hour.

– While crust is cooking, blend in your food processor – cottage cheese, honey, vanilla until smooth. Put in the fridge while crust is chilling.

– Spread cottage cheese filling over the crust and top with some frozen or fresh berries.
