Ingredients
  

For the crust
  • 100 g plain biscuits (gluten-free if desired)
  • 50 g dairy-free butter or margarine
For the cheesecake filling
  • 125 g cashew nuts (soaked and drained) Soak overnight for a smooth filling
  • 280 g vegan cream cheese
  • 75 g icing or powdered sugar Adjust based on banana sweetness
  • 50 g coconut cream (thick white cream from a can)
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 medium bananas (mashed)
  • 220 ml dairy-free whipping cream
  • 1 portion vegan caramel sauce For drizzling
For topping
  • banana chips (optional)
  • Biscoff cookies (crumbs)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Grease a 6-hole loose base or push-up cookie cup tin with dairy-free butter.
  2. Melt the dairy-free butter in a small saucepan over low heat, then combine with crushed biscuits to create a wet sand-like mixture. Press about 1.5 tablespoons of this mixture into each tin.
  3. Soak the cashew nuts in water overnight, then drain. In a blender, combine soaked cashew nuts, vegan cream cheese, icing sugar, coconut cream, vanilla extract, and mashed bananas, and blend until smooth.
  4. Pour the mixture into each tin, tapping to remove air bubbles. Optionally, swirl in some caramel and add banana slices.
  5. Refrigerate overnight to set.
Serving
  1. To remove cheesecakes, freeze the tin for 15 minutes, then slide a knife around edges to loosen.
  2. Roll sides in Biscoff crumbs, whip dairy-free cream until peaks form, and pipe onto cheesecakes.
  3. Drizzle with caramel, sprinkle with Biscoff crumbs, and add a banana chip on top.

Notes

Keep in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-5 days. For longer storage, freeze fully set cheesecakes for up to one month and thaw overnight in the refrigerator before finishing.
