Citrusy, fresh and bright – this silken tofu-based vegan lemon cheesecake is a delicious snack or dessert that’s super easy to make with added protein and toasted almonds sprinkled on top for crunch. Adding melted coconut oil to the lemon & tofu mixture means that when the mixture is chilled, it sets into a firmer more cheesecake-y texture. If you prefer something more like custard/pudding, you can leave the coconut oil out!
