Ingredients

Crust:
  • 2 cups pecans soaked overnight (optional)
  • 7 medjool dates
  • 2 Tbsp. coconut oil melted
Filling:
  • 1 cups cashews soaked overnight
  • 1-28 oz. 796 mL can pumpkin puree
  • 4 Tbsp. coconut oil melted
  • ¼ cup maple syrup or raw honey
  • ½ tsp. vanilla extract pure
  • 2 tsp. ginger minced
  • 1 ¼ tsp. nutmeg
  • ¼ tsp. sea salt
  • Mint leaves garnish

Directions

  • Put pecans in a blender and pulse until crumbly.  Add dates and coconut oil.  Process until well blended.  After saving a bit for garnishing, put 2 tablespoons in each mini-cheesecake holder and press down firmly.  Place in the freezer until you are ready to fill.
  • Add cashews, pumpkin puree, coconut oil, maple syrup, vanilla extract, ginger, nutmeg and sea salt into a blender and blend until creamy and smooth.
  • Fill each cheesecake holder until it is full with the pumpkin mixture.  Return to the freezer for about 1 hour or until firm. When ready to serve garnish with a touch of crust crumbles, mint leaf and pumpkin seeds.  You can also add a dollop of homemade whipped cream or dairy free yogurt!
