Cinnamon And Peach Cashew Cheesecake
- Crust
- 1 cup packed pitted dates - soaked for 10 minutes then drained
- 1 cup raw almonds
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon salt
- Filling
- 2 cups raw cashews, soaked for 45 minutes in hot water
- 1 large lemon, juiced
- 1/3 cup melted coconut oil
- 1/2 cup full-fat coconut milk
- 1/2 cup maple syrup (or honey if not vegan)
- 1 ripe peach, without skin
- Add dates to a food processor and blend until it forms into a ball. Remove and set aside in a bowl.
- Next add almonds and process into a meal. Add the dates back in and blend until a loose dough forms - it should stick together when you squeeze a bit between your fingers. Add salt to taste.
- Cover the bottom of your springform pan with parchment paper and lightly grease (I use olive oil spray).
- Scoop crust mixture into the pan and press with down fingers.
- Add all filling ingredients to a blender and mix until very smooth. I mixed mine for 1 minute, until silky smooth. If it won't come together, add more lemon juice or more coconut milk liquid.
- Fill the pan with the filling and then decorate it however you'd like with your sliced peaches! Set in freezer, covered, for 4 - 6 hours.
- Enjoy! Keep in the freezer for up to 1-2 weeks.
