Non-Dairy Cheesecake

[Laurentien2]

For those on the dairy free diet that feel nostalgic, here is a delicious recipe.

3 cup of cashew pieces (soaked for 2 hours)
1/2 cup of lemon juice
1 cup of coconut oil, liquefied
1/2 of honey and 1/2 of maple syrup

Drain the cashews and put in food processor or blender (for smoother consistency). Add lemon juice, sweetener and liquid coconut oil last, processing until smooth. Add whatever flavoring you like i.e. cacao, mint, blueberry, strawberry, raspberry etc. Pour in 8" spring- form mould and set in the fridge. Serves 10 to 12 .

I did half a recipe and use maple syrup only and less than the amount and use some stevia to adjust the sweetness. It gave me five 4 inches tart mould (I use mould with bottom that are free). I did it with blueberry, added at the end in the processor 1 1/4 cup so for a full recipe 2 1/2 cup.



Bonne dégustation.

Hi Laurentien,

Yes, the recipe was 3/4 cup of agave ( can be substitute 1/2 cup of honey and 1/2 of maple syrup)

I did half a recipe and use 1/2 cup of maple syrup only, did not fill the half cup to the top maybe 3/4 and added 2 or 3 stevia envelop. You can use the amount of sweetener suggested if you like your cake really sweet if not, reduce it and adjust to your taste with stevia. The binding effect come from the coconut oil not the sweetener, I would think. I did use a blender but first passed every thing in the food processor (unless you have one of those Vitamix blender, nut are difficult to brake in a blender) for a smoother result but it is not necessary. One last thing, add the fruit a the very end and process to your liking either totally mashed in a blender or partially broken in a food processor. Decorate with fruit on the top or serve with a coulis the result is amazing.

Thanks for your answer Laurentien. Yes I have a thermomix, so it will not be a problem.

Sounds wonderful, but I'm allergic to tree nuts.

If you happen upon another recipe that's nut free, pretty please post it!
