Method
1. Line a 20-23cm round springform pan with parchment paper. Set aside.
2. In a food processor, add all your base ingredients. Process until you reach a “crumb” consistency. Firmly press mixture into your pan until compact and flat, pressing and shaping the crumb up the sides of the pan. Place into the freezer to set - approximately 20 minutes.
3. For the filling; place all your filling ingredients into a high-speed blender. Blend until smooth. Pour the smooth cashew mixture over your prepared base and smooth down with the back of a spoon. Return to the freezer to set completely (approx 5-6 hours).
4. Meanwhile, for the strawberry chia sauce; place all ingredients into a saucepan over medium heat. When the mixture starts to bubble, reduce the heat to low. Simmer, uncovered for 10 minutes. Allow the sauce to cool.
5. When the cheesecake has completely set, remove from the springform pan. To serve, smooth over your chia sauce, slice and enjoy!
