Raw Strawberry Cheesecake

Strawberry Cheese Cake

Crust
1 cup macadamias
1 cup brazil nuts
6 - 8 medjool dates
Process nuts first in a food processor until small, then add dates until it sticks together when pressed between your fingers...don't over process, or it will become doughy.
Press firmly into a pie dish or better, a springform pan.

Filling
2 1/2 cups cashews - soaked at least 3 hours or overnight
1/2 cup agave
1tsp vanilla
1/2 cup lemon juice - freshly squeezed
1/4 cup water
16 oz of strawberries
1/2 cup coconut oil
4 TBS Lecithin granules - find these at the health food store, they give the pie a great firm consistency, you may skip this step if you like, but the texture won't be as firm.

Method
Process the cashews until they turn doughy, add agave, lemon, water, vanilla and process until smooth.
Add lecithin.
Then slowly add strawberries, then coconut oil.
Process until smooth and creamy.
Pour it over the crust.
Let sit for at least 4 hours.

Optional sauce (coulis):
Save about 9 strawberries and blend them with 2 tbs agave and pour over the top of the pie.

Other Options
Omit the strawberries and you have Lemon Merigue Pie, substitute blueberries for a violet pie, add cacao nibs for a nutritious chocolate chip crunch, decorate with goji berries, blend cacao powder with agave for a chocolate sauce and most importantly HAVE FUN! Experiment!
