Golden Gut Mango Cheesecake

Does anyone else have a love affair with cheesecake?

It combines two of my favourite things – cheese and cake.

And it makes for one delicious dessert.

But, for my friends who are cutting down on processed foods, gluten, dairy, sugar and eggs, cheesecake is probably one of the foods you avoid like the plague.

Until now!

I’ve created a cheesecake with my Golden Gut Blend that’s a perfect afternoon treat or delightful dessert for summer. It’s a raw, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and refined sugar-free cheesecake that is absolutely delicious.

Before you give me that attitude and roll your eyes at the idea of a cheese-less cheesecake, sometimes, you've just got to trust me. I think I can even say I like this more than regular cheesecake. And quite frankly, so does my stomach (sorry for the TMI!).

Don't be the friend who brings the unpalatable raw dessert to your dinner party. Bring this instead!

I’ve included sweet, juicy mangoes because they’re finally in season here in the Southern Hemisphere. I’m a little bit in love with them. Seriously. If you get a good one, don’t let that man-go. If you were to check my search history, “How many mangoes can I eat until I turn into a mango?” may come up. I promise I was asking for a friend… If you’re a lover of all things mango too, check out my Supercharged Banana and Mango Smoothie

This cheesecake combines two of my favourite goodies into one delicious recipe. My Golden Gut Mango Cheesecake is a recipe you’re going to luuuuurve.

The best part?

Instead of baking these cheesecakes, all you need to do is pop them in the freezer. Because I mean, who has time to watch the oven? Throw away the unnecessary fuss.

How else do you celebrate summer?

    I lurvvvve the funny and relatable way you write your blog. It makes me laugh. Also it’s as if you’re one step ahead of my cynical “Been there, done that” thoughts…..which is comforting and refreshing and makes me really want to try the recipes out for myself. Can’t wait to get started…….I can feel a mango cheesecake coming on!

    I thought all those nuts would be bad for your gut .
    And do I have to soak them first !! Thanks

    • Lee says:

      Yes they can be irritating for some people. The cashews can be soaked for 2 hours previously if nuts are a problem for you. Sometimes when blended into a smoothie or cheesecake nuts can be easier to digest. Let me know how you go. Lee
