        Ingredients for the vegan blueberry cheesecake no bake recipe

        Oil – Binds the crust ingredients together, and can also be substituted with melted vegan butter.

        Mixed nuts – Helps to add texture to the crust

        Cornflour – adds stability to the cheesecake filling.

        Coconut cream – Adds a fresh nutty creaminess to the cheesecake, visit my FAQS below, as to how you can find and use this cream.

        Lemon juice – Helps to balance the sweetness.

        Melted vegan butter – Helps add moisture to help blend the nuts

        Sweetener of choice – A great choice for the crust is to add maple syrup as its sweetener, as it will help to bind the crust ingredients, but coconut, cane or caster sugar will also work well in both the crust and filling.

        AS ALWAYS, ALL THE INGREDIENT QUANTITIES FOR THIS VEGAN CREAM TART ARE AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS POST IN THE GREY RECIPE BOX!

        How to make the vegan cheesecake crust 

        To make the crust, blitz the oats and mixed nuts until a crumb consistency then pour in the oil and blend until it reaches a wet sand like consistency.

        Transfer to a 6 inch loose bottom tin and evenly spread it across the bottom of the tin.

        How to make the lemon vegan cheesecake filling

        To make the easy lemon blueberry cheesecake filling, simply blend together the soaked cashews, melted vegan butter, cornflour, water, coconut cream, vegan cream cheese and melted vegan white chocolate.

        Until smooth.

        Layer on top of the cheesecake base and evenly spread it over. Set in the fridge while you make the easy blueberry compote.

        • Blueberry compote without bits
        • Blueberry compote maple syrup
        vegan blueberry cheesecake compote

        Then you’re in luck, this compote recipe covers all of that.

        Simply, heat all compote ingredients in a pan on medium heat, stirring constantly until it begins to thicken.

        Sieve the compote over a bowl to remove blueberry chunks, and leave aside too cool.

        Pour compote over cheesecake filling and set in the freezer for 1-2hours.

        Blueberry compote uses

        If you’re lucky to have any of this blueberry compote left over then this would be great to accompany a slice of apple pie, rhubarb bundt cake or on porridge. 

        Blueberry cheesecake topping

        I decorated my healthy raw vegan cheesecake by intricately placing sliced blueberries around the cheesecake. And then neatly placed a couple of pomegranate seeds in the center gap to create a flower like design.

        But you can decorate it however you fancy.

        FAQS

        How long should I soak the cashews?

        I’d recommend approx 8hrs at least, so letting it soak overnight is best.

        How do I soak cashews?

        Measure out the required amount of cashews, pop them in a deep bowl and soak them in cold water, making sure it’s enough water that it covers the nuts. Then once you’re ready to make the cheesecake, drain the cashews in a colander, to remove any excess water.

        Where can I find coconut cream?

        You’ll need a can of coconut milk for this! The beauty of these cans is that they produce a beautiful thick cream that seats on the top of the can, where the coconut milk lays beneath. 

        So for this cheesecake you’ll just require a tablespoon or 2 of the coconut cream, which we will then blend with the other ingredients.

        What can I use the rest of the coconut cream and milk for?

        You can use the rest coconut cream in this cheesecake recipe

        And you can easily use coconut milk as your ‘plant based milk’ in all my cakes,   dessert recipes!

        Is this vegan blueberry vegan cheesecake gluten free?

        The ingredients in this cheesecake are all gluten free, just make sure you’re using gluten free oats and white chocolate. As although these ingredients are naturally gluten free, I’d recommend reading the package details as they may contain traces due to manufacturing processes.

          This sounds delicious! I've never had vegan cream cheese before, but am trying to reduce animal products from my diet. Is there a brand that you recommend?
