Cashew Orange Cheesecake with Strawberry Orange Coulis
November 07, 2016We’re nuts about this cheesecake! Not only because it’s made with cashews instead of cream cheese but because all the health benefits make it easier to justify having a bigger slice!
My newest oh wow dessert! A cashew cheesecake infused with orange and robed in strawberries! It’s rich, thick, and creamy, screaming of indulgence and just begging to be enjoyed. I have long been a fan of cheesecake, yet with years of near zero dairy intake and the reality that dairy is a top food allergen, I abstain. So, of course, I found a delicious alternative! There is no need to announce this is vegan (unless you’re sharing with people who have nut allergies). There’s no need to announce that it was easy to make, either. Your guests will only know that they are eating a truly fantastic dessert.
Did you know? Cashews are cholesterol-free, an excellent source of copper, and a good source of phosphorus, magnesium, manganese, and zinc.
