Vanilla cheesecakes are the best!

Yes, you can create many cheesecake flavors, including chocolate, caramel, or any fruit flavor, but I feel like vanilla flavor is a classic.

You just cannot go wrong with this flavor.

The best part of these cheesecakes, is that you can top them with anything you want.

If you want berry flavor, just top it with berries and you will have vanilla berry cheesecake. So easy, right?

There are infinite options and combinations you can make!

Let's make this delicious mini vanilla cheesecakes!

Making this recipe requires a few steps, but don't worry, I will guide you through each step for the best results!

This recipe can be divided into two main parts.

The first one is creating a crust and the other one is creating vanilla filling.

Let's start with the crust.

For the gluten-free crust you will need:

  • gluten-free oat flour
  • rice flour
  • potato starch 
  • brown sugar
  • coconut oil +1 tbsp

Combine all of those ingredients until you will create a nice thick dough. You should be able to form a ball very easily without breaking or crumbling. If your dough is crumbly, add more wet ingredients, or simply let it rest for 5-10 minutes.

Next, prepare a muffin pan and add a little bit of the dough into each muffin hole. You should press the dough into the sides as well! But be careful, do not make the crust too thick. 0.20 inches are the best!

Bake the crust for 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, let's make the vanilla cheesecake filling.

For this part you will need these ingredients:

  • firm tofu
  • lemon juice
  • soy milk
  • vanilla
  • brown sugar
  • potato starch

Put all of the ingredients into a blender and blend until smooth and creamy.

The consistency will be watery, but that's ok, because the starch will create a nice creamy layer.

Take out the crust from the oven and carefully pour in the cheesecake filling mixture.

Put the muffin pan back into the oven for about 40 minutes.

Serve with vegan whipped cream and fresh fruits. Enjoy!
