How to Make Delicious and Light Lemon Cheesecake Slices 9 steps
1

I recommend measuring the ingredients in grams on a kitchen scale. But don't worry, you can trust your instincts too!

2

Mix the grated coconut, oats, and salt in a blender or food processor. Trust me, it will smell amazing!

3

Now add the dates, vanilla extract, and plant-based milk, and blend again. The mixture should hold together when pressed in your hand. If it's not sticky, add another date or a bit more milk.

4

Press the mixture into a parchment-lined mold using the bottom of a glass to flatten the base. There you go, this part is done!

5

Preheat the oven to 190°C. Meanwhile, blend the filling ingredients until smooth. Things are getting exciting now!

6

Pour the filling mixture over the base and tap it on the counter to release air bubbles.

7

Bake for 35-40 minutes. It's done when the edges are firm and the center is slightly wobbly.

8

Wait for it to cool, then place it in the refrigerator to set completely. If you're in a hurry, you can also chill it in the freezer!

9

Using the parchment paper, lift it out of the mold, slice it, and sprinkle with powdered sugar. Enjoy!
