Our good friend + blogger Mangia Bene has done it again! This matcha blueberry vegan cheesecake tastes as beautiful as it looks- and it's gluten, dairy and refined sugar free. There's no excuse not to try this simple recipe at home.
Serves: 10 - 12
What you will need:
- 16 Deglet noor dates (soaked and pitted)
- 60g desiccated coconut
- 30g almonds
- 30g cashews
- 45g cacao nibs
For the filling:
- 250g cashew
- 150g coconut oil
- 100ml agave
- 2 tins coconut milk
- 1 lemon (juiced)
- 2tbsp vanilla
- 2 Perfect Tea Spoons Bird & Blend Tea Co. Pure Grade Matcha Powder
- 1tsp Arctic Power Blueberry Powder
- 100g fresh blueberries
- A pinch of salt
What to do:
1. Line the base of a 9-inch spring form cake tin with clingfilm. Line the sides with
some greaseproof paper.
2. Make the base – roast the cashews and almonds for 2-3 minutes until lightly
browned, then add all the base ingredients to a food processor and mix until it all
comes together. Put into the lined tin and push down, using your hands to make an
even base. Set aside.
3. Make the filling - roast the cashews in the oven for 2-3 minutes, until very
slightly browned. Add the rest of the filling ingredients into a food processor and
process until thick and creamy.
4. Measure half the mixture into a bowl, leaving the remaining half in the food
processer. Add 100g of fresh blueberries and 1 tsp of berry powder and process until
mixed. Pour the blueberry mixture into the cake tin and place in the freezer for 10
minutes.
5. Clean out the food processer and pour the remaining mix in it, along with the
matcha powder. Process until mixed then pour on top of the blueberry layer. Leave to
set in the freezer for an hour.
6. Top with a dusting of matcha powder, blueberry powder and some fresh
blueberries.
7. Enjoy!
