Indulge in this creamy and decadent vegan pumpkin cheesecake with a spiced gingersnap crust. Perfect for holiday gatherings or any time you're craving a sweet and satisfying dessert!
Ingredients: 2 cups raw cashews, soaked overnight and drained. 1 1/2 cups pumpkin puree. 3/4 cup coconut cream. 1/2 cup maple syrup. 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted. 2 tablespoons lemon juice. 2 teaspoons vanilla extract. 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon. 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger. 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg. 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves. Pinch of salt. 1 1/2 cups gingersnap cookies, crushed. 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted.
Instructions: Start by heating the oven to 350F 175C. Crush the gingersnap cookies and melt the coconut oil in a food processor. Mix the ingredients well. Making an even crust, press the gingersnap mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan that has been greased. After 10 minutes, take the crust out of the oven and let it cool. Put the soaked cashews, pumpkin puree, coconut cream, maple syrup, melted coconut oil, lemon juice, vanilla extract, spices, and salt in the same food processor. There's no need to clean it. Mix until it's creamy and smooth. Put the pumpkin cheesecake mix on top of the gingersnap crust that has been left to cool. Use a spatula to smooth the top. It should be baked for 45 to 50 minutes, or until the edges are set and the middle is still a little wobbly. After taking the cheesecake out of the oven, let it cool for 30 minutes at room temperature. Then, put it in the fridge to chill for at least 4 hours or overnight. Once the cheesecake is cool, carefully take it out of the springform pan and cut it into pieces. If you want, you can serve it cold and top it with vegan whipped cream and a cinnamon sprinkle.
