Print Avocado Key Lime Raspberry Cake Course Dessert Cuisine American Keyword Avocado, cashews, Cheesecake, lime Prep Time 10 minutes Resting time 3 hours Servings 8 Ingredients 1,5 cups vegan graham cracker crumbs or sub for other types of dry vegan biscuits 1/2 cup warm vegan butter 1,5 cups raw cashews soaked in water overnight (or see a time-saving method in the notes), drained 2 large avocado peeled and pitted 2 tablespoons melted coconut oil 2 tablespoons lime zest 1 cup fresh lime juice 2/3 cup maple syrup 1/2 cup coconut cream 1 cup fresh raspberries 1 tsp natural red food color )I used beetroot powder) optional Instructions Stir together the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter, manually or in the blender. Press firmly into the bottom of a 6-inch springform pan, previously lined with parchment paper. Place in the freezer while you make the filling. Place drained cashews, avocado, coconut oil, lime zest and juice, maple, and coconut cream in the food processor or blender. Blend until completely smooth. Separate 2/3 cup of filling from the rest and set aside. Remove the springform from the freezer, pour the filling into it and smooth with a spatula. To make the raspberry swirl, pour the leftover lime filling into the blender, add the raspberry and combine to a smooth cream. As the raspberries, when mixed with the avocado, turn into a bland pink, I add beetroot powder to enhance the color, but it’s totally optional. Place dollops of the blackberry mixture on top of the green mixture and swirl in. Cover with plastic wrap and freeze overnight or at least 4 hours until firm. To remove from springform pan, run the sides under warm water and release. Slice into wedges. Remove from the freezer 3 hours before serving. Decorate with raspberry and limes if you like and serve. Recipe Notes I used a 6-inch springform for photography reason but I recommend to use an 8 or a 10-inch form. A flatter cake gets firmer much faster and also defrosts much faster. Plus, it's easier to slice. You can decorate the cake with the raspberries first and freeze it after, but I prefer to top it before I serve it as the raspberries might look old when defrosted. The cake can rest in the freezer as long as you like, but if it stays overnight it might take longer to defrost, especially if you use a 6-inch springform as I did instead of a classic 8/10 inch."},"author":"Marc & Silvia","blog_image":{"gatsbyImageData":{"images":{"sources":[],"fallback":{"src":"https://images.prismic.io/amazingstore/57ba3380-d3e8-48af-8794-8f643e669215_keylime.jpg?ixlib=gatsbyFP&auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=max&q=50&w=1500&h=2000","srcSet":"https://images.prismic.io/amazingstore/57ba3380-d3e8-48af-8794-8f643e669215_keylime.jpg?ixlib=gatsbyFP&auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=max&q=50&w=100&h=133 100w,\nhttps://images.prismic.io/amazingstore/57ba3380-d3e8-48af-8794-8f643e669215_keylime.jpg?ixlib=gatsbyFP&auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=max&q=50&w=116&h=155 116w,\nhttps://images.prismic.io/amazingstore/57ba3380-d3e8-48af-8794-8f643e669215_keylime.jpg?ixlib=gatsbyFP&auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=max&q=50&w=135&h=180 135w,\nhttps://images.prismic.io/amazingstore/57ba3380-d3e8-48af-8794-8f643e669215_keylime.jpg?ixlib=gatsbyFP&auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=max&q=50&w=156&h=208 156w,\nhttps://images.prismic.io/amazingstore/57ba3380-d3e8-48af-8794-8f643e669215_keylime.jpg?ixlib=gatsbyFP&auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=max&q=50&w=181&h=241 181w,\nhttps://images.prismic.io/amazingstore/57ba3380-d3e8-48af-8794-8f643e669215_keylime.jpg?ixlib=gatsbyFP&auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=max&q=50&w=210&h=280 210w,\nhttps://images.prismic.io/amazingstore/57ba3380-d3e8-48af-8794-8f643e669215_keylime.jpg?ixlib=gatsbyFP&auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=max&q=50&w=244&h=325 244w,\nhttps://images.prismic.io/amazingstore/57ba3380-d3e8-48af-8794-8f643e669215_keylime.jpg?ixlib=gatsbyFP&auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=max&q=50&w=283&h=377 283w,\nhttps://images.prismic.io/amazingstore/57ba3380-d3e8-48af-8794-8f643e669215_keylime.jpg?ixlib=gatsbyFP&auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=max&q=50&w=328&h=437 328w,\nhttps://images.prismic.io/amazingstore/57ba3380-d3e8-48af-8794-8f643e669215_keylime.jpg?ixlib=gatsbyFP&auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=max&q=50&w=380&h=507 380w,\nhttps://images.prismic.io/amazingstore/57ba3380-d3e8-48af-8794-8f643e669215_keylime.jpg?ixlib=gatsbyFP&auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=max&q=50&w=441&h=588 441w,\nhttps://images.prismic.io/amazingstore/57ba3380-d3e8-48af-8794-8f643e669215_keylime.jpg?ixlib=gatsbyFP&auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=max&q=50&w=512&h=683 512w,\nhttps://images.prismic.io/amazingstore/57ba3380-d3e8-48af-8794-8f643e669215_keylime.jpg?ixlib=gatsbyFP&auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=max&q=50&w=594&h=792 594w,\nhttps://images.prismic.io/amazingstore/57ba3380-d3e8-48af-8794-8f643e669215_keylime.jpg?ixlib=gatsbyFP&auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=max&q=50&w=689&h=919 689w,\nhttps://images.prismic.io/amazingstore/57ba3380-d3e8-48af-8794-8f643e669215_keylime.jpg?ixlib=gatsbyFP&auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=max&q=50&w=799&h=1065 799w,\nhttps://images.prismic.io/amazingstore/57ba3380-d3e8-48af-8794-8f643e669215_keylime.jpg?ixlib=gatsbyFP&auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=max&q=50&w=927&h=1236 927w,\nhttps://images.prismic.io/amazingstore/57ba3380-d3e8-48af-8794-8f643e669215_keylime.jpg?ixlib=gatsbyFP&auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=max&q=50&w=1075&h=1433 1075w,\nhttps://images.prismic.io/amazingstore/57ba3380-d3e8-48af-8794-8f643e669215_keylime.jpg?ixlib=gatsbyFP&auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=max&q=50&w=1247&h=1663 1247w,\nhttps://images.prismic.io/amazingstore/57ba3380-d3e8-48af-8794-8f643e669215_keylime.jpg?ixlib=gatsbyFP&auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=max&q=50&w=1446&h=1928 1446w,\nhttps://images.prismic.io/amazingstore/57ba3380-d3e8-48af-8794-8f643e669215_keylime.jpg?ixlib=gatsbyFP&auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=max&q=50&w=1500&h=2000 1500w","sizes":"(min-width: 1500px) 1500px, 100vw"}},"layout":"constrained","width":1500,"height":2000},"url":"https://images.prismic.io/amazingstore/57ba3380-d3e8-48af-8794-8f643e669215_keylime.jpg?ixlib=gatsbyFP&auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=max&q=50"}}}},"pageContext":{"id":"d51f5bb5-ca43-575a-a78f-1ea2ff8627b4","uid":"avocado-key-lime-cheesecake","__params":{"uid":"avocado-key-lime-cheesecake"}}},
