Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease a 9-inch springform pan with coconut oil. In a bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted coconut oil, 1/4 cup maple syrup, and salt. Press the mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan, forming an even crust. Bake for 10-12 minutes until lightly golden. Remove from oven and let it cool.

  2. In a food processor, blend the drained tofu, soaked cashews, coconut cream, 1/2 cup maple syrup, lemon juice, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Pour the tofu mixture over the cooled crust in the pan. Smooth out the top with a spatula. Tap the pan on the counter a few times to release any air bubbles. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to set.

  3. Once the cheesecake has set, carefully remove it from the pan by running a knife around the edges and releasing the springform. Top with fresh berries, if desired, before slicing and serving. Store any leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
