👩🍳 How to Make Vegan Blueberry Cheesecake
1️⃣ Prepare the Crust
Mix cookie crumbs with melted vegan butter and maple syrup. Press firmly into the bottom of a springform pan lined with parchment paper. Chill in the fridge while you prepare the filling.
2️⃣ Blend the Cheesecake Filling
Drain soaked cashews and blend with coconut milk, maple syrup, lemon juice, vanilla, melted coconut oil, and salt until completely smooth and creamy.
Pour over the crust and smooth the top. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours (or freeze 2 hours).
3️⃣ Make the Blueberry Topping
In a saucepan, simmer blueberries, maple syrup, and lemon juice over medium heat until berries burst. Stir in cornstarch slurry and cook until thick and glossy. Cool completely.
4️⃣ Assemble
Spread cooled blueberry topping over the chilled cheesecake. Refrigerate another 1–2 hours for best texture.
