Ingredients
- 200 grams Dairy-free graham cracker crumbs

- 20 grams Maple syrup
- 300 grams Raw cashews, soaked overnight
- 240 ml Coconut cream
- 120 ml Maple syrup
- 60 ml Lemon juice
- 2 tsp Vanilla extract
- 60 ml Coconut oil, melted
- 2 tbsp Cornstarch
Directions
Step 1
Line the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted coconut oil, and maple syrup. Stir until the mixture resembles wet sand.
Step 3
Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan to form the crust. Place the pan in the freezer while preparing the filling.
Step 4
Drain the soaked cashews and rinse them under cold water.
Step 5
In a high-speed blender, combine the cashews, coconut cream, maple syrup, lemon juice, vanilla extract, melted coconut oil, and cornstarch. Blend on high until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy.
Step 6
Pour the filling over the crust in the springform pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Step 7
Cover the pan with plastic wrap or foil and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, or overnight, until the cheesecake is set.
Step 8
Once set, carefully remove the cheesecake from the springform pan and transfer it to a serving platter.
Step 9
Slice and serve chilled. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or in the freezer for up to 1 month.
