Amazing Vegan Lemon Blueberry Cheesecake!
What You’ll Need:
For the crust:
1 c Lemon Blueberry Thyme Best Ever Granola
2 Tbsp pure maple syrup
For the filling:
2 1/2 c raw, unsalted cashews
3/4 c blueberries, fresh or frozen
1/3 c coconut oil, melted
½ c pure maple syrup
Zest AND juice of 2 lemons
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
1 tsp sea salt
Toppings:
Additional 1/4 c blueberries, fresh or frozen
zest of the lemons
* I know, I know. Soaking nuts sounds weird! Trust me. Place the 2 1/2 c raw cashews in a glass container, cover generously with filtered water & sit at room temp overnight.
Once soaked, drain & rinse cashews with cool water.
Zest lemons, setting zest aside.
Then, combine granola and 2 Tbsp syrup in a food processor until chopped fine. Transfer goodness to a pie pan— pressing crust firmly, and evenly on the bottom of the pan.
From there, combine all ingredients (except for toppings) in a food processor until smooth.
Use a spatula to transfer to a standard size pie pan.
Top with lemon zest & remaining blueberries
Pop in the fridge (or freezer for an extra cool treat!) for 4-6 hours.
Remove from fridge/freezer just before serving and be SO happy.
Serves 6.
