I have made this and it is wonderful my family and friends love it I have added different things like strawberry and just made one with sweet potato and coconut.
I'm starting to be okay with never being skinny. I made this without the crust and put a parchment circle on the bottom of my 10 inch springform pan. It was really easy and really really good. Also, this is really rich. so a small slice, like the restaurants do (and charge $9 per sniff) really is sufficient. I sliced the whole cake and actually left a couple in the fridge. They got soft (like a pudding pie) but didn't melt and were a nice compliment to my morning coffee and lunch salad. Very good! Thank you Jill.
i am a senior and excited to learn a NEW way to live at age 73, living in oregon, I really Need help. this is my first time to see this. Thank you so much by eyes are full of grateful tears,
I have made so so many of your recipes, omg so amazing. We have been plantbased for about 5 years and so glad I found you. Thanks so much for sharing with us. Made the BBQ out of the soy curls many times and your barbecue sauce, and last night made the kale mushroom soup, oh so good.
Hi. Thanks. I’m gonna make this. I made all vegan when my kids were young but that was decades ago. Now I’m baking for a new generation I wanted to see what folk have come up with in the interim. So much vegan. So much plastic!!! And processed!!! I’m so glad I found a kindred baker. Nice and natural and REALLY healthy. Thank you
I am so glad I found your channel , have been followingbforna few weeks now. So far , I have made granola, mayo, and cheese cake. The mayo for potato salad and used blueberries with the cheese cake. They were all delicious. I was so amazed. My friends and family, were also impressed by the pictures. As a result I had delicious, no salt, oil, or sugar, diary and gluten free Xmas. So much gratitude to you. Words can't express. ❤
try soaking cashews firs overnight, it make sit soooo smooth in seconds and no grittiness at all, and you can use less cashews (as soaked becomes a much bigger volume) :)
@@GardenJensJourney Please help! I tried to make this vegan cheesecake and the cashews had a bitter aftertaste, is this normal? Do most recipies use sugar to mask the taste? Any advice/tips would be highly appreciated. Thank you in advance!
@@eon7744 did you soak and rinse them first?? They shouldn't be bitter. I use cashews a lot, for making cashew gravy, or smoothies, cashew cream or milk for lots of things. The dates in this recipe are enough to sweeten the dessert I think. I don't consume many sweet things anymore, so my taste buds have changed, and don't "need" or enjoy for things to be very sweet anymore. Regardless, it still shouldn't be "bitter."
@@GardenJensJourney Hello! Yes, I did. I pre-soaked them for at least 5 hours and thoroughly washed and rinsed them. Perhaps the cashews may have been old or stale but I tried them before the soak and they tasted fine to me.I really do not know what I did wrong, but I will try again. May I ask, how long do you recommend I pre-soaked them? Also, does it make a difference if the cashews are roasted or raw? I am pretty sure they were raw but maybe I got the wrong kind.
I'm going to make this on Friday for a friends birthday! I love your channel. Your recipes are so easy and I enjoy the calm down to earth way you present.
Hi Jill 💗 This cheese cake looks so good !!! I need to try this one next on my list of your Amazing, healthy recipes. Your recipes are Divine , they look and taste so great yet as not doing. any damage to our health !! Thank you 🌹💕 🌹 for these free videos !! 🙏🎆
Why did you transition away from veganismm..you no longer care about animals.. or was it never a concern for you in first place.. ??? If that's case.. then lemme tell ya.. youre a horrible person... and selfish.. self-centered.. you've never stepped into a slaughterhouse... so you won't know why I'm so mad at people like you
Jill your the best for sharing all these recipes, This was so good, lasted me two weeks, it took 2 days to freeze, I am making the raspberry dressing and going to try it over Angel Food Cake instead of ice cream for my Birthday
Hi Dani, you have the name of one of my favorite Basketball player Kobe Bryant! Rest in Peace.. I totally agree with you Jill is an awesome Cooker with great recipes for all! You said it took 2 days to set up in the freezer?? Can you explain please? Thanks Henri 😉
@@happyeat6937 Funny that you say that as my daughter is half black, all thru school she said Kobe was her cousin. We loved him too, may he rest in peace
I discovered how to make vanilla extract, i pint of good quality rum and one vanilla pod let sit for at least 3 weeks, but the longer the better, way less expensive.
I made this recipe for Canadian Thanksgiving, and it was delicious! I subbed walnuts for cashew in making the crust, and I combined raw and roasted unsalted cashews for the filling. Raw cashews more expensive than roasted. The cheesecake still came out delicious although not as white. Have some extra cashews on standby in case the filling, at first, turns out too watery, which happned to me. I will make this again. Thank you!
Great video. just wanted to add, nuts and seeds contain enzymes(protease) inhibitors and moderate levels of phytic acid ... It’s basically a protection against insects and to keep the seed from sprouting prematurely. If not soaked they can cause potential problems for humans by binding to nutrients in the body and contributing to nutrient deficiencies and digestive system irritation.
I can't wait to try your recipes! I'm a bit of a wannabe foodie (I regularly write a blog) and I'm always eager to find new recipes to report on! Every time I watch one of your videos, I'm desperate to make whatever you cooked that video. When I saw another recipe of yours that used green banana flour, I was like, "wtf is that?" And "is that going to be hard to find?" Bless the internet. I can grab some online and make that amazing carrot cake. Now all I want to do is make all the birthday cakes at work because I know they'll be whole food AND vegan. Double win.
True, very handy tip when you're low on time. One thing to keep in mind though is that soaking the cashews in very hot/boiling water is pretty much like "cooking" them, which might cause certain nutrients to be lost. A bit of a shame if you specifically buy raw (unroasted and unsalted) cashews, which tend to be more expensive. But definitely a useful tip when you're low on time. I know I've used it before as well. XD
Thank you! Thank you! I was searching for vegan desserts for my Christmas party and your cheesecake and Sophie's pecan pie are perfect. I can't wait to try these. Thanks again and Merry Christmas!
Awesome, i am going to make this, thank you for sharing! I love how you responded to it at the end! I showed the thumbnail and the ending to my non vegan friend and she said you remind her of me, i am always saying to her, "oh my gosh, you are going to love this!" I will let you know what she says after I make it!
The Whole Food Plant Based Cooking Show In the chocolate video you mentioned soaking the cashews so that you get rid of the nutrient inhibitors. Has the science behind that updated, or do you just find it makes a tastier product by leaving them raw?
I'd like to do this in the freezer only in summer, and use a dehydrator in the colder months. I'd prefer to use coconut cream in the filling, and not dates as they are already in the base, which i'll add cinnamon to.
Hey Jill, I prepared your Peanut Butter Cheesecake with Hazelnut Butter as I said was an idea...it is like a Nutella Cheesecake! 🤗 Waiting for my daughter now! I also wanted to make your Classic Cheesecake but in my 6inch Springform pan to serve with other Cheesecake as 2 twins cute cakes you see? But do I have reduce quantities half for this? For example 2 cups of Cashews (like Peanur Butter Cheesecake) instead of 4 in the 9inch? And half Dates too...etc If you can help...
Saw the chocolate version when I decided to do some research for a more healthy alternative and cannot wait to try many thank can you do soufflé also would be so helpful my new found favorite.
Hey Jill, I will make your Classic Cheesecake again and I had a question about Lemon Juice.. You said 1/4 Cup which is 60ml right? But we feel the lemony taste so if I want to make it more Vanilla flavor can I had a Vanilla Tsp more or Bean? And add just 1 tbsp of lemon and the remaining liquid with Almond milk? Henri 😊
Maybe a stupid question, but you have to eat this frozen? In The Netherlands we eat cheesecake defrosted, we keep it in the fridge and it is soft and cool, but not frozen
Hey Jill, Do you think it is possible to put a Date Caramel layer in the middle of the cake by separate the filling in two.. Then adding the Caramel layer on 1st half of the filling when set?
@@wholefoodplantbasedcookingshow Thanks for your answer and your opinion Jill! But I guess we have to wait the first layer set up firm to spread Caramel on it.. It would be great if you could make a Cheesecake like this! 😉 Please create a Date Caramel and Caramel Cheesecake recipes! I forgot to ask you if the Cheesecake can be store in fridge and how long? For example the day before serving?
Oh wow, this looks so amazing! I only have sunflower seeds leftover from the holidays (sadly the last of my cashews went into the creamy mushroom gravy and cheeze sauce I made to go with the tofu and jackfruit roast turkey and the mashed cauliflower and caulibutter). Do you think sunflower seeds would be a good substitute for the cashews in this recipe?
I wish it had been mentioned in the linked recipe that the cashews should be soaked first if you don’t have a high speed blender. I didn’t get the creamy texture described 🙁. I’m new to wfpb recipes so I didn’t know about soaking. I hope my comment will save another newb from doing the same thing. I had to add some lemon rind to the filling to get a stronger flavour. It’s in the freezer now. Whose coming over for expensive gritty cheesecake? 😔😊
Lani Haskins I eat Indian food bkfst din & T, yes vegan😂welcome newby, no need2 even soak cashews if in hurry, In Indian recipes I have learnt to rinse cashews, cover with boiling water, cook bubbling 10 min max, rinse gradually add almond milk so it combines well loose creamy mix, add pinch of salt blitz, refrigerate, 1hr, it really thickens up, add2 any sauce2 thicken add vanilla essence4 desserts.

Hey Jill, I already made your Cheesecake twice 😉 but can you explain how the filling can set up and stand up so well without Coconut oil? I know Cashews and Dates are in big quantity in it but why so many Cheesecakes recipes use Coconut Oil? Coconut Cream is way better fat and substitute what do you think? Henri 🙂
It firms up just fine when it is really cold but when it thaws, it turns more like mousse. Cheesecakes made with coconut oil can sit out longer and stay firm when just slightly cold. I don’t use oil in any if my recipes because it is not good for you.
@@wholefoodplantbasedcookingshow Hey Jill, Yes I saw the same things when I made it twice...soften quickly but creamy texture is so nice! I know you dont use oil and I agree you totally true! But could you try Coconut Butter (Manna) it is Natural Whole fat source like nut butters and so tasty! And good for our health... (Or Coconut Cream?) I think it may substitute Coconut Oil to firm up the Filling of a Cheesecake...please try to experiment and let me know 😉 You could prepare a Coconut Cheesecake with it and your ideas Im sure!
If I'm using an ordinary blender rather than a food processor, would I need to soak all of the nuts including the dates for this to work? And would it blend properly?
Can you tell me the best place to buy raw cashews? I'm new to this type of diet myself and I already feel better and I've lost 10 lb and like 3 or 4 days! And I've been stuffing myself with vegetables and beans and I'm still losing weight.
That is great! Feels good that you can still eat a lot and loose weight doesn't it! I have been getting my cashews from Tierra Farms tierrafarmstore.com/. They are a bit expensive. Target, surprisingly enough also carries them in a smaller bag by Simply Balanced.
The Whole Food Plant Based Cooking Show thank you so much for caring enough for your viewers show us delicious recipes and where to buy the ingredients.
What could I sub almonds for we have lots of almond allergies and I want to make this for a family gathering I normally sub cashew but I wouldnt think that's a good option for this recipe, maybe walnut or pecan?
just watched the chocolate cheesecake and you suggested soaking the cashews because there was something in the cashews that needed to be released so says eat to live and dr Furhman, has something changed since then? Would appreciate hearing back on this please. Thanks
All nuts have enzyme inhibitors in the skin to keep them from germinating. When you soak them the inhibitor is released into the water. It only causes people problems if you are ingesting large quantities of nuts, seeds, or legumes. Most people don't have an issue with it so I have stopped soaking my nuts first. Also because it is very time consuming.
I blended 3 dates and 1/2 cup water in a blender and then stirred in the raspberries. Here is the recipe plantbasedcookingshow.com/2017/07/04/classic-vegan-cheesecake/
can you please do a cheesecake with a cream cheese that you make with your yogurt recipe -- i ask because i just dont like the super cashewy/nutty taste in the cheesecake recipes ive tried. they always miss that sour cream cheese flavor, and i dont want to buy the junky vegan cream cheeses in stores. ive even tried macadamia nuts, even those still honestly just taste like a nut-butter cheesecake... not like that sour-ish cheesecake flavor. i can always up the fat, but those nut based recipes are loaded with fat already while not even having the main flavor of a cheesecake. thank you

Soaking would be best for at least a few hours. It might just take a bit more blending to get it nice and smooth 👍
@@wholefoodplantbasedcookingshow thank you. also can I just pour the raspberrries over the entire cheesecake?
Looks delicious! Has anyone got this recipe in grams?
Is it wise to put your hand into the machine to empty it with the blade in. Why not remove the blade or use a spatula?
Best cheesecake ever!
deliciousness!! dibs on licking the spoon

😂😂😂
Can you post link for vanilla powder ??💕💕
Would walnuts or pecans work in lieu of the almonds for the crust?

Absolutely 🤗
Are there any raw vegan recipes that don't envolve nuts of any kind . For those of us with allergies to nuts
For the crust dried mulberries
You can replace cashews with raw sunflower seeds
Hiii is there any substitute for dates? As i need a sugar free but sweetness in cake. Wt else can be used for binding?
You can try something else but anything that will taste sweet will have sugar in it.
Very nice video.. Thank you.. 😁
Can you tell me the best place to buy raw cashews? I'm new to this type of diet myself and I already feel better and I've lost 10 lb and like 3 or 4 days! And I've been stuffing myself with vegetables and beans and I'm still losing weight.
That is great! Feels good that you can still eat a lot and loose weight doesn't it! I have been getting my cashews from Tierra Farms tierrafarmstore.com/. They are a bit expensive. Target, surprisingly enough also carries them in a smaller bag by Simply Balanced.
The Whole Food Plant Based Cooking Show thank you so much for caring enough for your viewers show us delicious recipes and where to buy the ingredients.
How do you conserve it? Will it stay solid if you put it in the fridge after you’ve had a slice (or 10 haha)?
It will keep in the fridge for 4-5 days but it will be a bit softer
@@wholefoodplantbasedcookingshow Ok, thank you!
Can we bake it instead of putting it in the freezer? Or some baking then some freezer time?
Victoria Forbes
No, this is not a cake that can be baked.
What could I sub almonds for we have lots of almond allergies and I want to make this for a family gathering I normally sub cashew but I wouldnt think that's a good option for this recipe, maybe walnut or pecan?
Tabitha Wisotzke
Pecan would be delicious 😋
@@wholefoodplantbasedcookingshow giving it a try this coming weekend! Thanks for your reply!
Making this now. My Vitamix is struggling.😋
We just ate it and it is delicious!! Thanks for another great recipe. By the way, I love your cookbook.
just watched the chocolate cheesecake and you suggested soaking the cashews because there was something in the cashews that needed to be released so says eat to live and dr Furhman, has something changed since then? Would appreciate hearing back on this please.
Thanks
All nuts have enzyme inhibitors in the skin to keep them from germinating. When you soak them the inhibitor is released into the water. It only causes people problems if you are ingesting large quantities of nuts, seeds, or legumes. Most people don't have an issue with it so I have stopped soaking my nuts first. Also because it is very time consuming.
Wondering does this have to be stored in the freezer if the unlikely chance of leftovers 😁 ??
Jody Mouse
You can store it in the fridge. The consistency will be different though. Just more pudding like than solid🤗

What can you use to replace NUTS if you are alergic
I’ve tried cutting by half using tofu. I think all tofu would work but it won’t be as rich or as firm.
Looks amazing what did you add to the raspberries?
I blended 3 dates and 1/2 cup water in a blender and then stirred in the raspberries. Here is the recipe

can you please do a cheesecake with a cream cheese that you make with your yogurt recipe -- i ask because i just dont like the super cashewy/nutty taste in the cheesecake recipes ive tried. they always miss that sour cream cheese flavor, and i dont want to buy the junky vegan cream cheeses in stores. ive even tried macadamia nuts, even those still honestly just taste like a nut-butter cheesecake... not like that sour-ish cheesecake flavor. i can always up the fat, but those nut based recipes are loaded with fat already while not even having the main flavor of a cheesecake. thank you
