Cheesecake is a family favorite but it certainly doesn't have to be bad to be good! This no bake, coconut cheese cake is sugar free and tastes amazing.
You'll need:
-
1 Cup of our Definitely Grainless Paleo Granola
-
1 Cup of medjool dates
-
250g cream cheese
-
3 Cups of Coconut yogurt (bought or homemade - we used homemade)
-
1 Vanilla bean pod
-
1/4 Cup 100% natural maple syrup
-
1 1/5 tsp gelatine powder (or agar agar)
-
2 Tbsp hot water
Here's how:
-
Using a food processor, combine the granola with dates and ground down to a course, sticky, powder (wet bread crumb consistency).
-
Press mixture evenly into the base of a 120cm cake tin so its about half a cm thick throughout before placing into a fridge to set. (approx. 20 minutes)
-
In a bowl, add the cream cheese and beat until smooth.
-
Add the coconut yogurt, vanilla bean pod and maple syrup and continue to beat until mixture combines and is smooth.
-
Dissolve gelatin or agar agar in the hot water so it is completely dissolved.
-
Add dissolved gelatin mixture to bowl and fold through so the gelatin is completely mixed in.
-
Take the base out of the fridge which should now be firm.
-
Pour cheesecake mix on top of the base and spread around evenly.
-
Place cheesecake in the fridge overnight to set.
