Raw kiwi cheesecakes

1st July 2016 by bos.kitchen Leave a Comment

raw kiwi matcha slice

I have to admit, I’ve never been a cheesecake fan. Too rich and creamy for me. But raw cheesecakes? Yes please. They are filling, nutritious, delicious and require minimal effort to make! The best thing is they stay fresh for up to a month in your freezer, so anytime you get a sweet craving, you can satisfy all your sugary needs with a healthy alternative. These slices are raw, refined sugar free and vegan of course! If you don’t have any almonds, feel free to sub in more buckwheat groats. I used Zespri Golden Kiwis for this recipe, which you can find in all major UK retailers until October. If you haven’t tried them before, definitely keep an eye out for some, they taste like a cross between a regular kiwi and bananas! I’m sure you already know by now how I feel about bananas. So these sunny little fellas were right up my street.

Raw kiwi cheesecakes

Base

  • 1/2 cup buckwheat groats
  • 1 1/2 cups pitted dried dates
  • 1/2 cup almonds
  • 3 tbsp coconut oil, melted

Filling

  • 3 cups raw cashew nuts, soaked overnight in water and drained
  • 1/2 cup coconut oil, melted
  • Juice of one lemon or lime
  • 1/2 cup agave or maple syrup
  • 1/2 tsp matcha powder
  • 1/3 cup coconut milk
  • 2 green kiwi fruit (1 peeled, 1 unpeeled)
  • 1 golden kiwi fruit (unpeeled)
  1. Prepare your slice tin (I used an 8 inch square tin), line with baking paper, ensuring the paper goes up over the sides.
  2. Blend buckwheat groats briefly on their own in your blender or food processor, until crumbly, but not quite flour. Now add in the dates, almonds and coconut oil and blend until mixture starts to stick together. Press into your lined tin. I put another layer of baking paper on my base at this stage, followed by a book on top, to make sure it’s evenly flattened. Set aside in the fridge. Rinse out your blender.
  3. Now the filling. Pop drained cashews, coconut oil, lemon/lime juice and agave syrup into blender and blend on high until really smooth. Keep going until there are no lumps remaining.
  4. Add half of the filling mix to your chilled base and pop in the freezer briefly. To the remaining mix, add matcha powder, coconut milk and one green peeled kiwi fruit. Blend again until smooth. Add a little more matcha if you’d like it greener.
  5. Now add your final layer- pour on the green coloured filling on to your cheesecake. Slice up your remaining two kiwi fruit and arrange on top, alternating between green and yellow kiwi slices. Pop in the freezer to set overnight.
  6. Let sit out of the freezer for 30 minutes before slicing. Stores in the freezer for up to a month.
