Ezra Cohen, McGill Grad, Shares His Recipe For Vegan Cashew Butter Cheesecake

April 14, 2020 by Ezra Cohen No Comments

Cashew Butter Cheesecake From Ezra Cohen Montreal

There’s pretty much nothing that Ezra Cohen, McGill graduate and founder of Ezra Cohen Montreal, doesn’t think that you can make better with nut butter. And it only takes one bite of this vegan cashew butter cheesecake to prove his point! This no-bake cheesecake makes perfect use of our All-Natural Cashew Butter as a creamy dairy substitute, blended smooth with a bit of vegan cream cheese and taken up a notch with a truly addictive brown sugar and coconut crumble topping (though you can modify it with any topping that you like).

If you’re looking for an easy, creamy vegan dessert, this vegan cashew butter cheesecake is sure to hit the mark. Here’s how to make it.

Vegan Cashew Butter Cheesecake

Ingredients

For the crust:

1 ½ cup pecans, walnuts, or almonds
1 cup dates, pitted
¼ tsp cinnamon
Pinch of salt

For the filling:

½ cup All-Natural Cashew Butter from Ezra Cohen Montreal
4oz vegan cream cheese (at room temperature)
¼ cup maple syrup
1 tsp vanilla extract
½ tsp cinnamon
Zest of one lemon

For the crumble topping:

¼ cup firmly packed dark brown sugar
¼ cup chopped pecans, walnuts, or almonds
1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut

Directions

1. Start by making your crust. Add dates to a bowl of warm water for 15 minutes to soften. Once ready, blend in a food processor with the nut of your choice, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt until all ingredients are finely ground. Be careful not to over-process—you don’t want the nuts to be ground into a powder since then the crust won’t set. Press crust down into the base of 9” springform pan and place in the refrigerator.

2. Clean out the food processor and then add all of your filling ingredients. Blend until smooth. Pour over crust and use a spatula to evenly spread the mixture out. Return cheesecake to the refrigerator.

3. Make your crumble topping. Start by toasting nuts and shredded coconut together in a pan over medium-low heat. Add brown sugar and allow the mixture to thicken. Remove from stove and let cool for five minutes, then spoon evenly over the top of your cheesecake.

4. Place finished cheesecake in the freezer for one hour and thaw in the refrigerator for 30 minutes prior to eating. Leftovers can be stored in the freezer for up to one month.
