This No Bake Blackcurrant Cheesecake is simply heavenly. Delicate cashew filling and aromatic blackcurrant are an amazing combination. In addition, this vegan gluten-free dessert can be made without an oven. Blackcurrant Cheesecake will decorate your table.
Ingredients for dessert
Almond flour – the basis of the crust. You can make almond flour yourself. Grind the almonds without the skin in a blender or coffee grinder.
Coconut oil – is in the crust and in the filling. I use refined coconut oil.
Cashews – one of the main ingredients in the filling. Before preparing the cheesecake, soak the cashews in cold water for 8 hours or overnight.
Coconut sugar – will give the dessert sweetness. Coconut sugar can be replaced with maple syrup.
Vanilla extract – will give the dessert a magical taste.
Coconut milk – helps the blender grind the cashews better.
Blackcurrant – the main character of our recipe. We grind some of the blackcurrant, and add the rest whole to the filling.
How to Make Blackcurrant Cheesecake
The process of making Blackcurrant Cheesecake can be divided into two stages. First, we will make the crust, and then the filling. But before that, prepare the pan. Line the walls of the mold with parchment. The pan can be split or in the form of a ring.
And so we begin.
Making the crust
In a bowl, mix almond flour and melted coconut oil. Then put the crust in the pan and spread it evenly. Press the almonds with oil with a spatula to get an even layer. Put the crust in the freezer for 15 minutes. Then move on to the filling.
Blackcurrant Cheesecake Filling
To prepare the cheesecake filling, we will need a blender. Load the soaked cashews, coconut milk, coconut oil, vanilla extract, coconut sugar and 1 cup of blackcurrants into the blender bowl. Grind everything until smooth.
Then pour the filling into a bowl and add the remaining blackcurrants. Mix everything well. Next, put the blackcurrant filling on the crust. Put the pan in the freezer for 2 – 3 hours until the filling hardens. When the filling hardens, remove the cheesecake from the pan and decorate the top with berries.
Before cutting the Blackcurrant Cheesecake into portions, heat the knife in hot water and wipe dry with a towel. A warm knife will make even cuts.
That’s it, our cheesecake without an oven is ready.
