Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Blend the cashews and yogurt until smooth. Add the rest of the ingredients and blend until smooth. You might need to scrape the sides depending on the blender as the mixture is thick.
  2. Taste and adjust sweet and spice (it gets slightly sweeter and spicier on baking). Pour into prepared pie crust. I use graham cracker style.
  3. Bake for 45 to 50 minutes. Cool completely, then chill for a few hours for it to set well. Slice and serve with whipped coconut cream or ice cream.

Notes

  • Use other squash puree or sweet potato puree for variation. 
  • Make it fancy: Add a layer of plain cheesecake. Blend 1/4 cup soaked cashews 1/2 cup non dairy yogurt, 1/2 tsp vanilla, 2 tbsp sugar and 1 tbsp lime juice and pour over the pumpkin layer for a plain layer, or swirl large spoonfuls. Bake 10 mins longer. 
  • Nutfree: Use 1/3 cup silken tofu and 1 teaspoon more cornstarch. For cashew free use macadamia nuts. 
  • I used store bought crust. My Sweet potato Pie Bars  crust  and the pumpkin pie's Rustic Crust will work as well. 
  • Nutrition is 1 of 8 slices
