Equipment

  • food processor
  • cake pan

Ingredients
  

Crust

  • 1 cup soaked pitted dates
  • 1 cup almonds
  • ¼ cup coconut shreds

Filling

  • 2 cups soaked cashews
  • ¾ cup maple syrup
  • ½ cup coconut cream
  • 1 lemon juice and zest
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries

Instructions
 

  • Start by creating the crust. To a food processor, add the dates, almonds, and coconut shreds. *Make sure that you have either soaked the dates overnight, or soak them in boiling hot water for 1 hour before using them in the recipe.
  • Blend the crust ingredients in the food processor.
  • Line the bottom of your cake pan with parchment paper. This is so that the crust doesn't stick to the pan.
  • Transfer the crust to the pan. Press it down with your fingers so that it's tightly packed.
  • Set the crust aside.
  • Clean out your food processor. Now we will be using it to create the cheesecake filling.
  • To the food processor, add the cashews, maple syrup, coconut cream, lemon, vanilla, and salt. *Make sure you have soaked the cashews overnight, or for an hour in boiling hot water.
  • Blend all of the ingredients until everything is blended smoothly.
  • Pour half of the cheesecake filling into the cake pan and place it in the freezer.
  • Then add the blueberries to the rest of the cheesecake filling and blend those in the food processor.
  • Once the first layer of cheesecake has frozen, add the blueberry layer on top. Freeze for 4-5 hours.
  • *I did the steps above so I could have two layers of cheesecake- a plain and blueberry layer. You can skip this step blend the blueberries in with the rest of the filling and just have one layer.
  • Once the cheesecake is frozen, slice it and enjoy!🥰 (store in the freezer for 1-2 weeks!)

Notes

I split my filling in two- first I blended all of the filling ingredients minus the blueberries and I poured about a quarter of that into the cake mold. Then I put the cake in the freezer for about an hour and then I mixed in the blueberries in with the remainder of the filling. Then I poured that over the rest of the cake. 
I also decorated the top of the cake with berries that I had on hand. 
Both of these steps are totally optional, but definitely made the cake more fun :)
