No-bake vegan blueberry cheesecake bars are a sweet and simple dessert. Their nut crust and creamy cashew, blueberry filling is divine!

This week we went to a blueberry farm with my mom and kids. We are officially STOCKED on blueberries. I mean, we have pints on pints of blueberries.

Since I’m always happy to make blueberry recipes (like these 25-Min Lemon Blueberry Sheet Pan Pancakes (made with almond flour) and these 25-Min Sweet Mini Blueberry Muffins (Made with Almond Flour)) I knew a delicious no bake vegan blueberry cheesecake was for sure in the cards.

This is an overhead horizontal image of deep purple bars lined up vertically from top to bottom of the image. The bars have frozen, frosted blueberries and blackberries on top of it. The bars sit on a white surface.

That pecan + almond flour crust!

It’s delicious. It’s simple. The crust only uses three ingredients. You chop them up in a food processor until you get a sandy mixture that holds together when you press it between your fingers. It’ll take everything in you to not just eat the crumbly crust straight from the food processor. It’s so delicious.

How to Make Vegan Blueberry Cheesecake

Step 1: Make the crust

This is an overhead horizontal image of a food processor with pecans and blanched almond flour in it. The food processor sits on a white wood surface.
Place the crust ingredients in a food processor and combine.

Press into the bottom of a bread pan lined with parchment paper.

First, in your food processor combine the pecans and almond flour. Process until all chopped up and mealy. Add the agave nectar and process again until it sticks together when you press it with your fingers.

Press the nut crust into the bottom of your pan. I lined my bread pan with a wide strip of parchment paper and pressed it into the bottom.

I didn’t bother cleaning out my food processor, but you’re welcome to rinse it if you like.

Step 2: Make the vegan blueberry cheesecake

This is an overhead horizontal image of a food processor with a vibrant deep purple mixture in it. The mixture almost looks like a smooth. The food processor sits on a white wood surface.
Blend the cheesecake ingredients in the food processor.

Place on top of the crust and top with fresh berries.

Add the cashews, berries, almond milk, vanilla, agave nectar, and lime juice. Process until nice and creamy and combined. The cashews and this cheesecake mixture is creamiest when you soak the cashews the night before. Although, I’ve made this without soaking that cashews and it turns out just fine!

Process until the cheesecake mixture is completely creamy and beautiful looking.

Pour the purpley-blue goodness into your pan on top of the nutty crust. Top with additional berries and place in the freezer on a flat surface.

Step 3: Freeze your vegan blueberry cheesecake to set!

This is a horizontal image of deep purple bars with a bottom crust and topped with frozen blueberries and blackberries. The bars are lines in a loaf form but cut into slices. The bars sit on a white surface.

Freeze for 3+ hours. Remove from the freezer and pull the parchment paper to help remove it from the pan. Place on a cutting board and cut into bars! Store in the fridge 🙂

Different Shape?

Sure! Try a round cake pan or tart shape! Mini muffins? Absolutely! There’s no rule here that these have to be bars. Have fun and shape these to whatever occasion suits you!

Best way to store leftover vegan blueberry cheesecake?

In the fridge or freezer. The fridge will allow the cheesecake bars to soften a bit and allow them to stay good for just about 1 week. The freezer will keep the cheesecake bars solid for and good for up to three months!

        Thank you so much! I have some lemons and frozen strawberries on hand. I’ll be definitely making it this weekend. Will have to cut the recipe in half though, since my food processor is pretty small.

    Hi Lindsay! This looks so yummy!
    Sadly I am allergic to cashews, could the cashews be replaced with a different kind of nut?
    (I’m just allergic to cashews).
    Thanks! Just found your blog, and I am so excited to try all your delicious recipes!

      Hmm, you can probably use any other nut. Macadamia nuts might give it a similar creaminess to the cashews. Other nuts might be a bit granular, but I guess that depends on your food processor/ blender too. You could also use coconut cream which would be SO yummy! Let me know how you make out and if you experiment at all! xo
