Instructions:
- Prepare the Crust:
- In a bowl, mix together the vegan graham cracker crumbs, melted coconut oil, and maple syrup until well combined.
- Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form an even crust. Place in the freezer while preparing the filling.

- In a high-speed blender or food processor, combine the soaked and drained cashews, coconut cream, lemon juice, maple syrup, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
- Blend on high until the mixture is smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed to ensure everything is well incorporated.
- Assemble the Cheesecake:
- Pour the cheesecake filling over the prepared crust in the springform pan. Use a spatula to smooth out the top evenly.
- Set and Chill:
- Cover the springform pan with plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator to set for at least 4-6 hours, or preferably overnight, until firm.
- Decorate and Serve:
- Once set, carefully remove the cheesecake from the springform pan and place it on a serving platter.
- Top with fresh berries or fruit of your choice. Optionally, garnish with vegan whipped cream for an extra indulgence.
