This raw cheesecake from This Rawsome Vegan Life looks so pretty! And it’s made from such clean ingredients, too.
Crust:
- 1 cup oat flour
- 1 cup tigernut flour
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons melted coconut oil
- 2-3 tablespoons fresh orange juice
Strawberry layer:
- 1 cup cashews
- 3/4 cup strawberries
- 1 tablespoon ground chia seeds
- 3 pitted Medjool dates
- 1/4 cup coconut milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup fresh orange juice
- 1/4 cup melted coconut oil
Chocolate layer:
- 1 heaping cup cashews
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1/4 cup coconut oil
- 1/4 cup fresh lime juice
- 1/4 cup coconut milk
- 1 tablespoon ground chia seeds
- 2 tablespoons cacao powder
- 1 scoop (7.6 grams) of a vegan greens powder (like Athletic Greens)
To make the crust: mix all the ingredients together until you have a dough that will hold its shape when pressed between your fingers. Press into the bottom of a lined 6″ springform pan or other dish. Leave in the fridge.
To make the strawberry layer: blend all the ingredients until smooth. Scoop evenly onto your crust and put back in the fridge.
To make the chocolate layer: blend all the ingredients until smooth. Scoop evenly onto your strawberry layer.
Leave the cake in fridge overnight so it can set properly. Slice and decorate with whatever you like: edible flowers, chocolate chips, mint leaves, chopped nuts or seeds, chocolate or caramel sauce… 🙂 Enjoy!
