Raw vegan blueberry cheesecake

As some of you may know we love cheesecakes.

Remember that cheesecake I made for Ben's birthday?

I must admit we've always been so curious about raw vegan cheesecake.

So, after hours  spent  doing maths yesterday, I took the plunge, and Believe me, you want to make one too!

i used Miryam's recipe  from her blog : Eat good 4  life 

Ingredients:

Crust base:

- 1 cup rolled or instant oats

-1/4 cup hazelnuts or almonds 

- 1 cup pitted dates soaked at least for 1 hour

- 1 tsp unsweetened cocoa powder

Cheesecake layer:

- 1 & 1/2 cups raw cashew nuts - soaked at least for 1 hour and drained

- 1/4 cup maple syrup or agave nectar

- 2/3 tsp non dairy milk- I used almond milk

Top layer: 

- 1 & 1/4 cups blueberries, thawed if frozen

- 1/4 cup Chia seeds

- 2 TBspoons maple syrup or agave nectar

Directions:

First, mix the top layer ingredients and let sit for 1 hour 

Secondly, pulse the crust ingredients in your food processor for about 1 minute.

Press this mixture onto the bottom of a square or rectangular baking pan layered with parchment paper or cling film .

Place in the freeze for 1 hour.

Finally, place the cheesecake layer ingredients in your food processor and pulse until smooth, scrap down the sides as needed.. I had to scrap down several times! 

Pour the the cheesecake mixture over the crust and spread evenly.

Put back into the freezer for at least 1 hour 

Spead the topping ingredients and freeze for another hour.

Enjoy!
