Ingredients

Base:

  • 1 cup almonds
  • 3/4 cup organic shredded coconut
  • 8 medjool dates, pitted & chopped
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil, melted

Filling:

Optional toppings:

  • Fresh blueberries
  • Thickened coconut cream
  • Coconut shavings

Instructions

  • Make base - in a high powered blender or food processor pulse almonds, coconut, dates and coconut oil to form a fine crumble. 
  • Spoon base into a lined cake tin, spread evenly and use the back of a spoon to press down firmly. Set aside in freezer whilst you make the filling. 
  • To make the filling - drain and rinse soaked cashews. 
  • In a high powered blender or food processor blend cashews, coconut oil, lemon juice, rice malt syrup and vanilla powder until smooth and creamy. 
  • Split your filling into two portions. 
  • Pour one layer on top of your base. 
  • Return the other portion to the blender and blend with blueberries until smooth. 
  • Carefully pour the blueberry layer on top of vanilla layer. (You can also allow your vanilla layer to set for 1 hour first before adding the blueberry layer). 
  • Freeze for 2 hours or until firm. Allow to stand for 25 minutes before serving to slightly soften. Decorate with optional toppings. 

Notes

Recipe Tips:
  • *Soaking the cashews overnight will ensure your cheesecake filling as a creamy texture. Be sure to rinse your soaked nuts before blending.
  • If your dates are dry soak them for several hours for a smooth base.
  • Using more berries will give your cheesecake layers more colour and more flavour. If you are not using additional sweetener in your filling perhaps try adding extra berries.
Personalise this recipe:
  • *To make your filling sweetener free, swap out rice malt syrup for more fresh berries or a layer of blueberry and a layer of strawberry.
To make this recipe Paleo/ grain free:
  • *Swap out rice malt syrup for honey.
