This blueberry vegan and gluten free cheesecake will blow your mind. It tastes so good and I love the colours of this cheesecake. Like my other raw cheesecakes, this one is made with CASHEWS as the base! If you’re skeptical about cashews’ ability to replace luxuriously creamy cream cheese, you wouldn’t be the first. I was skeptical for a while…until I tried it.
Paired with coconut milk, a bit of coconut oil, maple syrup, lemon juice, and vanilla, it makes a pretty damn close replica to the cheesecake you know and love. This cheesecake will not only satisfy your sweet tooth, but give you nutrients. You can make this recipe in individual ramekins or as a whole cake!
This no-bake blueberry cheesecake is going to be a new favorite around your house. It’s hard to resist the creamy cheesecake layers, especially with that tangy blueberry topping. I’m pretty sure no-bake, raw vegan cheesecakes are my new favorite thing. I can’t imagine anything easier than preparing a raw dessert – as always, the simplest things are the most spectacular. You’ll only need good-quality, organic, raw ingredients, and a powerful food processor, and the rest is just about playing with shapes, tastes, and textures.
