Raw, Vegan Blackberry Cheesecake Bars

September 9, 2013 Gluten Free, Raw

IMG_5916

A few glances around the blogosphere suggest that people are gearing up for autumn. Pumpkin is starting to appear on Instagram, honeycrisp apples are being spoken of with glee, and I can practically smell the cinnamon wafting from certain granolas. It’s all incredibly delicious, but as much as I love fall flavors, I’m not ready. I’m still busy saying goodbye to the last of heirloom tomatoes, sweet corn, arugula, cucumbers, and plump berries. While a lot of the veggies I just mentioned may last another few weeks (or in the case of corn, another few months), berries are just about to slip away for a while. So this weekend, I decided to create a little ode to summer 2013 with these raw, vegan blackberry cheesecake bars.

As beautiful and vibrant as these bars look, they’re quite easy to make. I suggest making the bottom layer a day in advance, and then simply blending up the top layer on the day you want to cut and serve these. You’ll need to let them set in the fridge for a few hours, but thanks to the magic of coconut oil, they won’t need too long. When they emerge, they’ll be sweet, firm, and ready to eat.

Raw, Vegan Blackberry Cheesecake Bars
Print
Ingredients
  • 11/2 cups walnuts
  • 1 cup pitted dates
  • ¼ teaspoon sea salt, divided in half
  • 1 cup blackberries
  • 1 cup cashews, soaked in water for at least two hours and drained
  • ½ cup melted coconut oil
  • ⅓ cup maple syrup
Instructions
  1. To make the bottom layer, place the walnuts, dates, and ⅛ teaspoon sea salt in a food processor and pulse to break the ingredients down, till they're crumbled. Run the motor and process till the mixture is ground up and sticking together when you squeeze a little in your hand.
  2. Press the bottom layer into a small casserole or baking pan that has been lightly greased with olive or coconut oil (I used 11" by 7.5"). Set aside while you make the top layer, or chill overnight.
  3. To make the top layer, blend the cashews, blackberries, oil, remaining ⅛ teaspoon sea salt, and syrup in a high speed blender or food processor till they're as smooth as possible. Pour the top layer over the bottom layer in the pan. Use a spatula or inverted knife to smooth the top layer over very evenly.
  4. Transfer the dish to your fridge and chill for at least three hours. Cut into bar shapes and serve.
  5. Yields 15-20 bars, depending on how big you'd like them.

These bars are sweet, a little tart, full of delicious fat from walnuts and coconut, and deliver all the joy of raw cheesecake with a little more portability.

I’d say more about this recipe, but there’s just really not much to say that photos don’t say a lot better.

    These look amazing! One little quibble though (I think it’s a typo?), you say for the crust to put the blackberries, dates, and salt into the food processor. You mean the walnuts, right?

    These look wonderful! I love anything vegan cheesecake-y. I would wonder how to adapt it to frozen berries so it can be made year-round.

    The frozen berries I get at the farmers’ market (it’s late winter in New Zealand!) tend to have a lot of juice/liquid at the bottom after they defrost, and I wonder whether I should include that in the recipe or not. I might try it and let you all know!

    I’m so torn between the summer and fall flavors right now, but these bars certainly have me wanting to scramble to the store for any blackberries I can find! I have never made a raw cheesecake, but it’s always been an alluring thought – all that rich creamy decadence. Obviously I can’t resist forever!

      Naomi, you can always use macadamia or pine nuts for cashews, but I don’t usually opt for those because they’re quite a bit more expensive. If you happen to have them, though…

    I just made these but they look nothing like your lovely pics! Ha… I have to laugh at myself for now reading through comments (perhaps I should have done that first). My coconut oil was soft but not melted down which made the top layer seem a little coagulated. My crust came out not so thick as yours looks and not as chunky looking (probably overprocessed them, oops)… Never-the-less I stuck it to chill over night and hope for the best ๐Ÿ™‚ And even if it looks funny, I’m sure it will taste good (I already nibbled on both layers along the way).

    Hi Gena, I made these bars for dessert last night. I used mulberries instead of blackberries, and the topping tasted delicious out of the blender… But something terrible happened while it chilled, and I think the coconut oil went rancid! The taste was terrible. Everyone says coconut oil does not go rancid easily, but I think it might have happened because I heated the coconut oil (maybe too hot?) and then blended it with the other ingredients straight away. Has this ever happened to you? Apparently oils can go rancid when they get “oxidised” which is likely when you heat it and then mix with oxygen.

    Reply
    • Gena says

      September 26, 2013 at 6:31 am

      Oh gosh! How awful. Actually, coconut oil is supposedly quite immune to going rancid; one of its main advantages is that it withstands heating very well. So it’s surprising that it went off. The nuts could have been rancid, too. In any case, I’m sorry it happened. Let me know if another batch works?

I made them today and I had to sneak a piece before it’s even set properly. The last time I made a cheesecake using nuts it didn’t set very well, and I’m not holding my breath for this one to set much either but its delicious anyway!

    I made these today and subbed the coconut oil with walnut oil due to a coconut allergy. The topping came out a little soft but I put the whole tray in the freezer and then cut and re-packed them into a Tupperware and put back in the freezer. They’re like delicious blackberry cheesecake ice cream bars. Amazing recipe and I just can’t get over how beautiful the color is!

    These look great! Definitely going to have to make these with my girlfriend this weekend. I’m thinking of using strawberries instead of blackberries… Hopefully it is an easy swap.

    This is not a cheesecake bar and it defiles the name of cheesecake…how about fruit and nut bar

    Hi there,

    I’d like to try your recipe, but I have a doubt about the measurements.
    What does 11/5 cup walnuts mean?: 11.5 or 5.5?

    Thanks

    These are amazing. Everyone I shared with loved them. Great pre or post workout snacks…

    These were delicious, picked the blackberries locally this afternoon and used Almonds in the base as I didn’t have any walnuts in the cupboard, delish x

    Hi Gena, I have just made these and found them easy to make. Thank you. It seems such a shame to have the maple syrup in there though. I wish that I had left it out and added it bit by bit at the end if necessary. I’ll do this next time. I used strawberries.
    Thanks
    Zoe

    I made this twice. It’s so easy, even a non-cook can make and impossible to mess up ๐Ÿ™‚
    Tastes great and my husband who doesn’t like desserts asks for me to make more ๐Ÿ˜€
    My five year old loves it too. I’ll be exploring more flavors of raw vegan cheesecakes ๐Ÿ™‚

    The sugar content is super high. Dates, alhough delicious and healthy, are thr highest in sugar content of any fruit. A cup of dates and blackberries and maple syrup along with all the oil: Super caloric and way too much sugar.

    This sound so easy and yummy! Would you mind clarifying if I need one and a half cups of walnuts or eleven and a half? My browser is not displaying the quantities clearly. Thanks!
