Raw Food: Blueberry Cheesecake

Raw cakes are not only a blessing for those of us who need wheat-free, gluten-free, and dairy-free options, they're also incredibly delicious.

Blueberries and cashew nuts are the star ingredients in this raw vegan cheesecake.

One of the seven pillars of self-care is nutrition. If you've been wanting to reduce refined sugar and increase wholefoods, while still celebrating with cake, then this recipe is a winner.

Prepare the base

1 c raw macadamia nuts
1 c shredded coconut
1 c raw cashew nuts
10 medjool dates, pitted and rinsed
2 T coconut oil
1 tsp vanilla essence

Line a 20 x 20 cm spring bottom cake tin with baking paper. Use a food processor to lightly chop nuts until still chunky. Add remaining base ingredients and process until combined. When a doughball forms press into the tin.

Create the filling

2 c soaked raw cashew nuts
2 c defrosted blueberries
1/3 c maple syrup
1/2 c coconut oil
1 tsp vanilla essence

Place all filling ingredients in a power blender. Blend until smooth. Pour onto base.

Place in the freezer to set for at least 4 hours. Overnight is best. Cut when frozen. Garnish with fresh fruit before serving.
