Easiest Raw Vegan Cheesecake With Berries
Ingredients
Makes about 10 small servings.
CRUST Ingredients:
- 1 cup raw almonds
- 7 medjool dates (pitted)
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
- pinch of sea salt
FILLING Ingredients:
- 2 cups soaked, raw cashews
- 1 cup fresh raspberries (or your choice of berry)
- 1/2 cup coconut oil
- juice from 1/2 lemon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup agave or apple bee-free honey (or less if desired)
GARNISH:
- fresh berries
Steps
Step 1
Add raw cashews to a large bowl of water and soak for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Step 2
To a food processor, add all the ingredients for the crust. Blend until it resembles “graham cracker” crust (i.e., coarse crust). Set aside.
Step 3
Once the cashews have finished soaking, discard the water then add the cashews to a food processor. Add the rest of the ingredients for the filling. Blend until very smooth, like cream.
Step 4
Build a large cheesecake, or several mini-cheesecakes by adding the crust, patting it down, then adding the filling.
Step 5
Freeze for about 1 hour (or longer), then place the cheesecake in the fridge about 30 to 45 minutes you are going to enjoy it.
