Many people cannot get vegan white chocolate or perhaps you don't like it? In which case, just leave it out altogether! *It is best to prepare this cheesecake a day ahead of time as it needs to set overnight in the refrigerator before slicing

  • 3 cups Graham Crackers 18-20 sheets 280g
  • 6 Tbs Granulated Sugar 85g
  • 10 Tbs Vegan Butter melted 140g

For the Cheesecake:

  • 20 ounces Vegan Cream Cheese 454g

  • 1 cup Powder Sugar 120g
  • 5 Tbs Clear Jel *cook type see notes 40g
  • 4 Tbs All Purpose Flour 28g
  • 1 cup Plant Milk 237ml
  • 1 teaspoon Vegan Lactic Acid
  • 2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract 10ml
  • 1 cup Vegan White Chocolate Chips 6oz

For the Blueberry Compote:

  • 2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
  • 0-¼ cup Sugar *optional
  • 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
  • 1 Tbs Water

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F & Grease & parchment line an 8" x 3" cake pan
  • First prepare the graham cracker crust by crushing the graham crackers with the sugar in a food processor to fine crumbs. Add the melted vegan butter & pulse until it resembles wet sand
  • Press the crumbs into the prepared greased & parchment lined cake pan evenly on the bottom & up the sides.
  • Freeze while you prepare the cheesecake batter
  • Place all of the cheesecake ingredients (except the white chocolate) into the work bowl of your food processor & pulse to blend smooth. Scrape the sides of the bowl to ensure an even mix then blend again to a smooth mixture
  • Add the white chocolate chips & pulse a couple times
  • Pour the batter into the prepared crust & bake in a water bath in the preheated 350°F oven but immediately turn it down to 335℉. Bake for 60 minutes
  • After 60 minutes turn the oven off but leave the cheesecake in the oven with the door cracked open to cool slowly for another 60 minutes
  • Remove the cheesecake & cool completely at room temperature & then refrigerate overnight before unmolding.
  • For the blueberry compote place the fresh or frozen blueberries with the optional sugar in a heavy bottom sauce pot & cook over low to medium heat
  • Bring to a low boil stirring often to prevent scorching approximately 15-20 minutes on low heat
  • Whisk the cornstarch with the water then bring the compote back up to a boil & add the cornstarch mixture, stir while boiling for just about 30 seconds
  • Cool compote & store in the refrigerator until needed
  • Loosen the sides & bottom of the cheesecake pan with a blowtorch or by submerging the pan into hot water & running a small spatula around the edges
  • Vegan Cheesecakes unmold very easily so flip it onto your serving platter then add the cooled compote to the top
