Also for Friendsgiving, I knew a dessert would be a treat for my and my vegan buddy. To the internet I went and I found and followed a @minimalistbaker recipe.
Using cashews, coconut cream, vegan cream cheese from Trader Joe’s, maple syrup, vanilla, corn starch, coconut oil, salt, lemon juice and lemon zest I made the filling. For the crust, I used almonds, GF oats, sugar, salt and coconut oil.
Not going to lie, I was nervous about pulling this one off because I’ve never used nuts in this way. All-in-all, it was a great way to break in my new springform pan and it was pretty tasty overall and wicked creamy.
It isn’t quite on the “New York style cheesecake” level, but I think I’d make it again. On the plus, it’s ace for us gluten free and lactose-intolerant people!
