Ingredients

- Before making the recipe, add the cashews to a bowl, cover them with water, then allow them to soak in the fridge overnight.
- Spray a 9 inch pie pan with coconut oil spray.
- To make the cheesecake crust, in a food processor or high powered blender, add the pecans, dates, sea salt, and 1 tbsp of lemon juice. Blend for 1 minute or until the mixture is the consistency of cookie dough.
- Add the mixture to the 9 inch pie pan and press it into the pan to form the cheesecake crust.
- Place the cashews in a strainer to drain the water, then rinse under the tap.
- To make the cheesecake filling, add the cashews, coconut oil, almond milk, honey, sea salt, 1/4 lemon juice, and the lemon zest to the food processor. Blend until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy.
- In the pie pan, pour the cheesecake filling over the crust, then cover the pan and place it in the fridge. I allowed it to set overnight, but if you're preparing it in the morning, give it at least 4 hours to set.
- Slice it into 16 pieces and enjoy.
