Ingredients
  

2 cups Greek yogurt

1 cup cream cheese, softened

3/4 cup granulated sugar

1/4 cup honey

3 large eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup pomegranate seeds (for topping)

1/2 cup pomegranate juice

2 tablespoons cornstarch

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1 prepared graham cracker crust (store-bought or homemade)

Instructions
 

Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C).

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, cream cheese, and sugar. Beat with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.

      Add honey, eggs, vanilla extract, corn starch, and lemon juice. Beat until well combined.

        Pour the cheesecake batter into the prepared graham cracker crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.

          Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, until the center is set but slightly jiggly.

            Turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool inside for an hour. Then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.

              For the pomegranate syrup, in a small saucepan, combine pomegranate juice and 2 tablespoons of sugar, cook over medium heat until it reduces to a syrupy consistency (about 10 minutes). Allow to cool.

                Once the cheesecake is chilled, top it with pomegranate seeds and drizzle the pomegranate syrup over the top before serving.
