Dairy Free Pumpkin Cheesecake Food

DAIRY FREE PUMPKIN CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Grease the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan with nonstick or olive oil spray. Set aside.
• Add the oats, pecans and salt to the bowl of a food processor. Pulse until the mixture is finely chopped and resembles coarse crumbs or coarse sand.
• Add in the coconut oil and maple syrup and continue to pulse until the mixture is combined and comes together in clumps if you press it with your fingers - add up to about 1 tablespoon water to achieve this consistency (I usually need to add the full tablespoon).
• Transfer the dough to the prepared pan then use wet fingers to press firmly into the bottom in an even layer (if it gets too sticky, wash your hands and try again). Prick the bottom of the crust a few times with a fork.
• Bake for about 15 minutes, until set and lightly golden brown around the edges. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool completely before proceeding.
• Drain and rinse the cashews, then add to a high-speed blender along with all the other ingredients for the filling.
• Blend on high until completely smooth and creamy, about 1 ½ to 2 minutes.
• Pour the filling over the cooled crust, then spread evenly with a spatula. Gently tap the pan on the counter a few times to release any air bubbles.
• Transfer to the freezer and chill until completely firm, about 8 hours to overnight.
• In the morning, carefully remove the frozen cheesecake from the springform pan, then transfer to a serving plate / stand.***
• Place in the refrigerator and allow to thaw for about 6 to 8 hours, or until it reaches that typical cheesecake consistency (the exact time will vary depending on your fridge). Once thawed, keep in the fridge until ready to serve.
• {If you are in a rush, remove the cheesecake from the pan then let thaw on the counter at room temp for 30 to 45 minutes. Slice the cheesecake, then let the individual slices thaw for an additional 30 to 45 minutes to reach that desired consistency - this time can vary slightly depending on the temperature in your house.}
• Serve each slice with a generous dollop of whipped coconut cream and / or chopped pecans / chocolate shavings.

The water did not get into the cake though.).

NUT & DAIRY-FREE PUMPKIN PIE CHEESECAKE RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F (180˚C). Grease a 10-inch (25-cm) springform pan with coconut oil.
• Make the crust: In a food processor, pulse together the graham crackers, dates, coconut oil, and salt until the dates are completely broken down and a moist, sand-like texture is achieved. The crust should easily hold together when pinched between your fingers.
• Transfer the crust mixture to the prepared springform pan. Using the bottom of a measuring cup or another flat-bottomed glass, pack down the crust against the bottom and about 1 inch (2 cm) up the sides of the pan.
• Bake the crust for 15 minutes, or until toasted and crisp around the edges. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool for about 20 minutes while you prepare the filling. Leave the oven on.
• Clean out the food processor, then make the cheesecake layer: Add the tofu, coconut cream, coconut oil, maple syrup, lemon juice, arrowroot powder, salt, and vanilla bean seeds to the food processor and blend on high speed for 1-3 minutes, or until completely smooth.
• Pour all but 1 cup (225 G) of the mixture over the cooled crust and shake gently to smooth. Freeze for 30 minutes. This will make it easier to add the pumpkin layer.
• Make the pumpkin layer: To the reserved cheesecake mixture in the processor, add the pumpkin puree, coconut cream, maple syrup, arrowroot powder, and pumpkin spice, and blend on high for 1 minute, until smooth.
• Remove the pan from the freezer and gently spoon the pumpkin mixture over the cheesecake layer. Smooth out the top using a rubber spatula or the back of a spoon.
• Wrap the outside of the pan in foil. This will prevent water from the water bath from leaking in to the pan.
• Place the springform pan in a large, deep baking dish and fill with hot water about halfway up the sides of the springform. This will create steam inside the oven that will help the cheesecake bake evenly. Carefully transfer the pan to the oven.
• Bake the cheesecake for 1 hour, then turn off the oven and, without opening the door, leave the cheesecake inside for 30 minutes.
• Remove from the oven and let cool, then cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours, or overnight.
• Release the springform, then slice and serve the chilled cheesecake. Garnish with dark chocolate shavings.
• Enjoy!
