Vegan Blueberry "Cheesecake"
Make a decadent cheesecake without the dairy or the oven. This vegan “cheesecake” recipe is made with a crust of processed dates, paleo-friendly flour and chopped nuts. The filling is a creamy, dreamy blend of soaked cashews, maple syrup, coconut oil and lemon juice. Top with a beautiful blueberry layer by blending the berries into half the filling. Set in the fridge or freezer, and the result is a plant-based, raw, vegan and gluten-free dessert that’s simply divine.
Vegan Blueberry "Cheesecake"

- 1 cup pitted dates
- 1-1/2 cups Bob’s Red Mill Paleo Baking Flour
- Dash Redmond Sea Salt
- 2 tsp. Nutiva Organic Refined Coconut Oil
- 1/4 cup chopped pecans or macadamia nuts
Filling
- 1/4 cup lemon juice (approximately 1 large lemon)

- To make crust, use food processor to blend dates, paleo flour, coconut oil and salt. (Note: Mixture should be dry but moist enough to hold together.

- To make filling, combine ingredients in high-speed blender and blend until filling is smooth and light.
- Pour half of the filling into crust and leave other half in blender.
- Add blueberries to blender and re-blend. Pour onto cheesecake.
- Freeze 4 hours or refrigerate 8 hours. Once set, cut into slices and top with fresh blueberries.
