Heart Healthy Non-Dairy Cheesecake
Ingredients
3 organic eggs
1 cup full-fat coconut milk
1/4 cup coconut oil
1 1/2 cups unsweetened shredded coconut
1/2 cup almond meal
2 heaping Tbsp of honey
20 drops of liquid stevia
1/4 tsp sea salt
Method
Add all ingredients to a high-speed blender or food processor, and process until smooth and uniform.
Transfer batter to an 8 x 8 Pyrex baking dish or pie plate.
Bake at 350 C for 25-30 minutes. You can make the berry topping at this time.
To set into a dense, cheesecake-like dessert, place dish in refrigerator after baking until chilled.
Serve with berry topping and prepare for the party in your mouth.

Allow to cool and thicken or serve hot over your chilled non-dairy cheesecake. Yum!
