Peaches And Cream Raw Cheesecake

Peaches And Cream Raw Cheesecake - Enjoy the late summer peaches with this melt-in -your mouth cheesecake. Raw, dairy-free, refined sugar-free and gluten-free. This cheesecake is super easy to make, you will only need a good food processor or high speed blender.

Please remember to start making the cake one day ahead to allow the cashews to soak overnight. This will make it easier to process them into a smooth cream and it will also reduce the phytic acid contained in the nuts.

Soaking overnight is preferred, but If you’re short in time, you can soak the cashews in hot boiling water for at least 30 minutes.

I used a homemade peach compote to make this cake completely plant-based, but you can also use store-bought compote or jam.

I hope you guys enjoy this late summer recipe!.
