No-Bake Blackberry Lemon Cheesecake
Ingredients
Base
- 1 cup almonds (any nuts work)
- 1/2 cup shredded coconut
- 1/4 tsp sea salt
- 1 cup pitted dates
Filling
- 1.5 cups raw cashews, soaked overnight and drained
- 1/2 cup full fat coconut cream
- 1/2 cup maple syrup
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
- Zest of 2 lemons
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup blackberries (if frozen, thaw first)
Preparation
Method
Add the almonds, coconut and salt into a blender or food processor and blitz well until it becomes a fine crumb. Add in the dates and continue to process until well combined. It should stick when pressed together, if not then add in 1 tbsp of water and blend again. Press into a lined cake tin and pop into the freezer.
For the filling, combine all the ingredients minus the blackberries into a blender and blend until completely smooth. Take out a little over half of the mixture and pour on top of the base. Place into the freezer to set slightly.
With the remaining mixture, add in the blackberries and blend until smooth. Pour on top of the first layer and freeze until completely set.
Decorate with your desired toppings and serve.
Tips
You can place the cheesecake into the fridge for up to 1 week or freeze it for 1 month, and thaw before serving. Enjoy!
