Serves: 6
Ingredients
  • For the Cheesecake Base:
  • ¼ cup coconut cream
  • heaping ¼ cup raw cashews
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • ½ teaspoon pure vanilla
  • For the Honey Roasted Plum Layer:
  • 8-10 small plums (a mixture of different kinds or just one kind is fine)
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • ½ tsp cinnamon
  • For the Crumble Topping:
  • ¼ cup pitted dates
  • ¼ cup almond flour
  • 2 tablespoons shredded unsweetened coconut
  • a pinch of salt
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp room temperature coconut oil
  • 2 tsp natural almond butter
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
  2. Line a baking pan with parchment paper and place plums on the pan. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of honey and sprinkle ½ tsp cinnamon.
  3. Roast for 10-12 minutes.
  4. Meanwhile, line a muffin tin with 6 cupcake liners.
  5. Blend the cheesecake base ingredients in a blender until smooth.
  6. Pour the mixture evenly between the cupcake liners.
  7. Place muffin tin in the freezer for 30 minutes to set. The cheesecake base should be firm to the touch when removed.
  8. Once the plums are roasted, remove the pan from the oven and mash plums with a fork, mixing together to make a compote consistency. Place the plum mixture in the freezer with the cheesecakes to cool until the cheesecake bases are set.
  9. While the plum mixture is cooling, prepare the crumble topping by pulsing all ingredients in a blender until crumbly and slightly sticky.
  10. Remove the cheesecake bases and plum mixture from the freezer and divide the plum mixture evenly among the liners to top the cheesecake base.
  11. Evenly sprinkle the crumble topping over the plum mixture for each cheesecake.
  12. Place the pan back in the freezer for another 10-20 minutes then serve.
  13. Store in the freezer if consuming at a later time. You'll need to let the cheesecakes thaw slightly (about 10 minutes) before serving.
