Detailed Recipes
Crust Ingredients:
1 cup nuts of choice (pecans, walnuts, almonds)
1 cup almond flour
½ cup maple syrup
4 tablespoons coconut oil
2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 tsp vanilla extract
Cheesecake Filling Ingredients:
2 cups raw cashews, soaked in cold water for at least four hours or preferably overnight (see Notes)
½ cup canned coconut milk, shaken
¼ cup coconut oil, melted and cooled (use refined coconut oil if you want no coconut flavor)
⅓ cup pure maple syrup
1 tablespoons lemon extract
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
¼ cup freeze-dried haskap berries
6” springform pan
Food Processor or high powered blender
Instructions:
- Grease a 6” springform pan with coconut oil.
- Add the pecans, almond flour, pitted dates, coconut oil, cinnamon and salt to a food processor or high-powered blender and pulverize until it comes together into a sort of sticky dough, with small nut bits remaining. Don’t over process, or it will turn into nut butter! Press the dough evenly along the bottom of the prepared pan. Place in the freezer and allow to harden.
- In the same food processor combine all of the filling ingredients and blend for about 2 minutes, or until the mixture is silky smooth and creamy. Scrape down the sides as necessary.
- Once it’s smooth, taste the mixture and adjust the sweetness/tartness levels by adding more maple syrup, vanilla, or lemon juice, if desired.
- Pour the filling into the prepared pan over the crust. Smooth out the top and tap the pan hard against the counter a few times to release any air bubbles.
- Place in the freezer to set for at least 3 hours or until completely firm before slicing and serving. I recommend running your knife under hot water to warm it up before cutting the cheesecake with the still-hot (dried) knife.
- You can let thaw for about 20 minutes from frozen at room temperature, or for the best texture, transfer to the refrigerator at least an hour before serving. Store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, or in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.
