Raw Pumpkin Cheesecake Recipe - Blogilates (2024)

As you know, I have an obsession with eating vegan when I’m eating out. Raw vegan? Even better! I feel like this makes dining out THAT MUCH MORE special, simply because it is something that I am so amateur at! To me, eating raw vegan is like eating a delicacy!

The other day I tweeted that if anyone was a raw vegan chef that they could be my automatic friend. Well, Kortney from SproutsUpNutrition stepped up to the plate! I asked her what her most popular and delish recipe was and she gave me her raw vegan pumpkin cheesecake.

OMG. I LOVE CHEESECAKE. DYING.

There is a bit of a twist though…there’s actually no pumpkin in this recipe, but rather carrots! And pumpkin spice.

So here it is guys…Kortney’s Raw Vegan Cheesecake Recipe!

Filling:

– 1 cup of raw cashew butter

– 3cups of carrots

– Juice from 1 lemon

– 5 dates

– 1tbsp of pumpkin pie spice

– 1/4 cup of raw agave nectar or maple syrup (not raw)

– 1/4 tsp of salt

– 1/4 cup of raw pumpkin seeds

Crust:

– 3 1/2tbsp raw agave nectar

– 1 1/4 cups of raw pecans

– 2 tsp vanilla powder

– 1/2 tsp of salt

– 1 tbsp coconut oil

1. Make the crust first by blending the pecans in a food processoruntil they are a fine powder.
2. Add remaining crust ingredients into the food processor and blend till it gets crumbly.
3. Press the crust into a cheesecake pan. I used a 6″ pan for this recipe.
4. Place pan into the freezer while you mix the filling.
5. For the filling, puree your carrots in a food processor first.
6. Once you have a nice puree you can add the remaining filling ingredients (except pumpkin seeds) and mix until you have a creamy smooth consistency.
7. Pour your mix into the pan onto of your crust. Using a spatula, spread the mix out so it is nice and even.
8. Sprinkle raw pumpkin seeds on top of your cake and set into the freezer for about 6 hours.

I can’t wait to try this! If anyone makes this, please share your pics on facebook or tweet them to me @Blogilates.
