Joyce from the Light Orange Bean blog introduces a recipe for small beet cheesecake bites and it rests in a foundation of soaked raw cashews in place of the 'cheese' filling. It gives off a similar creamy texture that is accompanied by a nutty flavor. The beet cheesecake bite recipe requires no baking -- the filling combined lemon juice, soaked cashews, water, beet puree, and agar agar noodles.
The mixture blends together before it is transferred into an airtight container to refrigerate and piped into the crust. The crust blends coconut shreds, oaks, gluten-free flour, coconut oil, water, and pitted dates -- this requires 8 minutes of baking at 350 °F.
