Your body wouldn’t function without fat. Fat is an essential part of a healthy balanced diet. It provides fat soluble vitamins and essential fatty acids. But as fat is a rich source of energy (calories), it can easily contribute to weight gain.

Saturates
On average as a nation it seems we’re consuming too much saturated fat. Eating too much can increase your cholesterol, which is a risk factor for heart disease. Replacing saturated fats with unsaturated fats can help maintain healthy cholesterol levels, and reduce the risk of heart disease.
-
Carbs36g
Carbs
Starchy foods like bread, breakfast cereals or potatoes are a good source of carbohydrate and should make up just over a third of the food you eat. When eaten, carbohydrates are broken down into glucose, which is used to fuel cells in your body like brain and muscle cells. Some people think starchy carbohydrates are fattening, but gram for gram it contains less than half the calories of fat. Choose whole grain or high fibre varieties where you can as they often contain more nutrients.

Sugars18.6g
Sugars
On average in the UK we eat too much sugar. Foods and drinks high in sugars are not needed in the diet. So if you have them, make sure they're infrequent and in small amounts, or you risk tooth decay or obesity.
-
Fibre8.2g
Fibre
Fibre is classed as a carbohydrate and you should aim to eat 30g fibre each day. Eating plenty of fibre is good for your digestive health and is associated with a lower risk of heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes and some cancers.
-
Protein23.5g
Protein
All cells and tissues contain protein, so it’s essential for growth, repair and good health. Protein from animal sources such as meat, fish, eggs and dairy products contain all the essential amino acids (the building blocks of protein) needed by the body. If you're vegetarian or vegan, you can get the protein you need through eating a variety of different plant sources such as pulses, nuts and cereals.
-
Salt0.38g
Salt
A small amount of salt is needed in your diet but too much can raise your blood pressure, which increases risk of health problems such as heart disease and stroke. Adults shouldn’t eat more than about 1 teaspoon (6g) per day – and that includes salt already in the foods you eat, not just the salt you add, so check nutrition labels on food packs.

Method
- Preheat the oven to 180°C, gas mark 4. Grease 4 x 200ml ramekins.
- Whisk together the eggs, vanilla, soft cheese, yogurt and honey. Stir in 100g raspberries.
- Dry fry all the oats in a pan then reserve the 2 tbsp.
- Mix together the remaining 75g oats and low-fat spread and press into the base of the ramekins. Pour the cheese mixture on top.
- Bake for 40 minutes until golden and firm to touch. Allow to cool before removing from the ramekins.
- Meanwhile, slowly cook the remaining 300g raspberries in a pan with 3 tbsp water for 5 minutes, then purée for a smooth coulis. This can be done in a blender or with a hand blender.
- Serve the coulis with the cheesecakes sprinkled with the reserved toasted oats and fresh berries (e.g. blueberries or strawberries).
Cooking Tips
- Add a little cinnamon to the oats for extra spice or replace the raspberries with blueberries.
