Detailed Recipe

Ingredients:
For the crust:

  • 1 cup almond flour or crushed almonds
  • 1/4 cup pitted dates
  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil (melted)
  • A pinch of sea salt

For the cheesecake filling:

  • 1 cup raw cashews (soaked in water for at least 4 hours)
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil (melted)
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup or agave syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • A pinch of sea salt

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Crust: In a food processor, combine the almond flour, dates, melted coconut oil, and sea salt. Process until the mixture sticks together when pressed.
  2. Form the Bites: Line a mini muffin tin with paper liners or silicone molds. Press about 1 tablespoon of the crust mixture into the bottom of each mold, pressing it firmly to form the crust. Place the tin in the freezer to set.
  3. Make the Cheesecake Filling: Drain and rinse the soaked cashews. In a blender or food processor, combine the cashews, coconut oil, maple syrup, vanilla extract, lemon juice, and sea salt. Blend until smooth and creamy.
  4. Assemble the Bites: Spoon the cheesecake filling over the crusts in the molds, filling them almost to the top. Smooth the surface with a spatula.
  5. Chill: Place the cheesecake bites in the freezer for at least 2-3 hours, or until they are firm.
  6. Serve: Once set, remove the bites from the molds. Store in the freezer until ready to serve. Optional: top with fresh berries, a drizzle of chocolate, or shredded coconut for extra flavor.
