When you are trying to eat healthier, it can be really difficult. Everywhere you look there are so many delicious foods that you simply cannot eat because you’ll break your diet. It only becomes even harder when the reason you are avoiding certain foods is because of health reasons.
If you are following a low-fat diet, then it can be really hard. Fat is included in so many different foods, foods that you might not have even realized. So, it can be really difficult to follow this diet in normal day-to-day life.
Thankfully, following a low-fat diet doesn’t necessarily mean that you have to go without. In this guide, we’ll be taking a look at 15 amazing low fat cheesecake recipes that you can make at home. So, if you want to find out more, keep on reading!
1. Low-Fat Cheesecake
If you are calorie-counting as well as watching your fat intake, then this low-fat cheesecake is the perfect treat for you. This vanilla cheesecake is made using low-fat alternatives such as Greek yogurt to create a truly delicious flavor.
If you are watching your calories, then you can enjoy this cheesecake guilt-free because each slice only contains 160 calories. Some low-fat alternatives taste healthy, but that isn’t true of this cheesecake.
This cheesecake tastes like a real treat, while also being low-fat. It really is a win-win.

Just like the last cheesecake recipe that we looked at, this also makes a vanilla-flavored cheesecake. But they actually taste surprisingly different from one another. So if you weren’t a huge fan of the last vanilla cheesecake recipe, check out this one instead!
3. Low-Fat Strawberry Cheesecake Pots
In recent years, cheesecake pots have become all the rage, and they are actually great for watching your fat and calorie intake too. When you are slicing a cheesecake, there is no way to guarantee the exact amount of fat in each slice. But with cheesecake pots, this is doable.
Strawberry cheesecake is one of the most classic flavors out there which only makes this recipe better. We love these cheesecake pots because they make the perfect snack, so we would definitely recommend trying them if you are on a low-fat diet.

This chocolate vanilla cheesecake is perfect if you don’t fancy a fruity cheesecake, like many recipes are. Even if you aren’t watching your fat intake, you will probably love this cheesecake, so we would definitely recommend giving it a try!
5. Healthy Cheesecake With Oat Crust
Although, sometimes when you are eating healthier foods, you want to be able to tell that you are eating healthy. If this is the case, then this healthy cheesecake with oat crust is perfect.
This recipe can be used to make bite-sized low-fat cheesecakes that will leave you wanting more. The oat crust is a little different to what you might expect in a cheesecake, but don’t knock it till you try it! We love this cheesecake, and we’re sure you will too.
6. Healthier Greek Yogurt Cheesecake
As you have probably noticed by now, a common theme in these low-fat cheesecake recipes is low-fat Greek yogurt. This is yet another recipe that features Greek yogurt, and it is safe to say that we love it.
A slice of this cheesecake feels like a real treat thanks to the blueberry compote that is served on top of it. The blueberries are nice and sweet, perfectly complementing the cheesecake itself. It is healthy but delicious, which is why you need to try this recipe out!

8. Peanut Butter Low-Fat Cheesecake
Peanut butter is a unique flavor when it comes to cheesecakes, but it is one that has actually become pretty popular in recent years.
Most regular peanut butter cheesecakes would include toppings such as Reese’s peanut butter pieces, but to ensure this recipe is low-fat it is a lot more simple.
What we love most about this cheesecake recipe is that it tastes incredibly similar to a Reese’s peanut butter cheesecake, but it is a lot healthier. So it is the perfect alternative if you are following a low-fat diet.
9. Healthier New York Cheesecake
New York cheesecake is one of the most popular flavors of cheesecake in this world, but generally it tends to be pretty fairly high in fat. So, if you are looking for a low-fat alternative to New York cheesecake, this is the one for you!
This cheesecake looks very different from traditional New York cheesecake, but it tastes just as good! If you love New York cheesecake, you will really enjoy this healthy, low-fat alternative.
10. No Bake Low-Fat Cheesecake For One
Quite a lot of the recipes that we have looked at so far in this guide produce a large cheesecake, and this isn’t really ideal if you are following a low-fat diet. Especially if you are the only one in your home who will be eating said cheesecake.
That is why we love this recipe. With this recipe, there is no room for temptation because the portion that you make is equal to a single portion. So, this is a great cheesecake to make if you want to leave no room for temptation.
11. Pinch Of Nom Reduced Fat Biscoff Cheesecake
Pinch of Nom is a great resource for any low-fat, healthy recipes, and this reduced fat Biscoff cheesecake is a great example of this. Biscoff has become a bit of a craze in recent years, and with cheesecake that tastes this good, it is easy to see why!

12. Healthy Key Lime Cheesecake
Key lime as a flavor is one that tastes fairly healthy, which is why it works so well in this low-fat cheesecake recipe.

Chocolate cheesecake isn’t for everyone. But if this is a flavor that you love, then we would definitely recommend checking out this recipe for a healthier alternative.
