Hi, friends! Did you have a good Thanksgiving?

I’m super excited because while I do love Thanksgiving recipes (hello yummy turkey and mashed potatoes), we’ve turned the corner and are now completely focused on Christmas recipes!

This Honey Pear Ginger Cheesecake is the perfect lightened-up dessert for the holidays (or anytime)!

Seriously, it’s one of my new faves! I’ve made this more times than I can count for holiday gatherings and to just have a yummy dessert option at home. It’s soooooo addicting!

How to make this Honey Pear Ginger Cheesecake:

It’s so easy! All you’ll need is a blender, a springform pan, and the ingredients listed below.

The crust is made by simply blending bran cereal, coconut oil (or butter), and dates together. The filling is made with cream cheese and yogurt, and the entire cheesecake is topped off with roasted pears and honey drizzle.

Not just any honey drizzle, though! I loved using Bee Harmony® Honey in this recipe because 1. DELISH, 2. the flavor pairs perfectly with the ginger and pear, and 3. it’s made using responsible practices that are respectful of the environment. The honey is made the way that nature intended it to be, from bees drawing nectar from wildflower blossoms!

I also love that I can see where my honey is coming from by using this locater on the Beesponsible® website. So awesome! And, if you use my code JAROFLEMONS15, you’ll get 15% off your order on Beesponsible.com!

And the best part (well, aside from how amazing it is on this cheesecake of course) is that I can share my love for honey by gifting my friends and fam with the Bee Harmony Honeymini gift set!

I’m really loving this Honey Pear Ginger Cheesecake for a delicious holiday recipe and I know you’ll love it too, friend!
