What I really love about this cheesecake is the simplicity. It puts the “lemon” in “easy peasy lemon squeezy.” In fact, you probably already have all of the ingredients you need in your kitchen, right now: almonds, dates, bananas, a lemon, and coconut oil. It’s super easy to put together too. Blend the base, pack it in the dish. Blend the filling, pour it over the base. Freeze. Eat. Like I said, easy peasy lemon squeezy.
