Pumpkin Spice Cheesecake

Serves 6-8

Ingredients:

For the base:

7 oz Graham crackers or digestive biscuits
1/4 melted vegan butter or refined coconut oil

For the filling:

1 1/2 cups pumpkin puree, homemade or storebought
2 8-oz tubs of vegan cream cheese
1/4 cup Laird Superfood Pumpkin Spice Creamer
3 tbsp cornstarch or arrowroot starch
3/4 cup raw cane or coconut sugar
1 tsp cinnamon

For serving:

1/2 cup vegan whipped cream

Directions:

Preheat oven to 325F. Oil the base and sides of an 8-inch spring-form tin and set aside.
To make the base, place the Graham crackers in a food processor and process until you get a fine crumb. Add the melted butter and process again until evenly mixed.
Press mixture to the bottom of the spring-form tin. Use the flat bottom of a glass to get it even. Place in the fridge until needed.
For the filling, combine the pumpkin puree, vegan cream cheese, Pumpkin Spice Creamer, cornstarch, sugar and cinnamon in a bowl. Whisk until smooth and lump-free.
Pour mixture onto the base. Tap the baking tin gently onto the work surface to even out the top and get rid of any air bubbles.
Place in the oven and cook for 60 minutes. Remove from oven and cool for 2-3 hours on the countertop, then place in the fridge for 3-4 hours or overnight to set
To serve, pipe whipped cream on top of the cake. Slice and serve. Enjoy!
