Ingredients: Gathering the Goodness
For the crust:
- 1 cup (120g) almond flour
- 1/2 cup (40g) shredded unsweetened coconut
- 1/4 cup (60ml) coconut oil, melted
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- A pinch of salt
For the filling:
- 2 cups (480ml) coconut yogurt
- 1/4 cup (60ml) maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/4 cup (60ml) coconut oil, melted
- Optional toppings: fresh fruits, vegan chocolate chips, or coconut flakes
Crafting the Crust
- In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, shredded coconut, melted coconut oil, maple syrup, and a pinch of salt. Stir until the mixture is well combined and sticks together when pressed.
- Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch (23cm) springform pan, creating a firm, even layer. Chill in the fridge while you prepare the filling.
Filling: The Creamy Dream
- In another bowl, whisk together coconut yogurt, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and lemon juice until smooth.
- Gradually blend in the melted coconut oil until the mixture is creamy and homogenous.
- Pour the filling over the crust in the springform pan. Use a spatula to smooth the top.
- Chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or until set.
The Grand Finale: Serving Up Bliss
After patiently waiting (we know, it’s hard!), your cheesecake is ready to dazzle. Carefully remove it from the pan and garnish with your choice of toppings. We love a vibrant mix of fresh fruits for a pop of colour and an extra burst of freshness.
