Time 1h55m

Yield 2 (9-inch) cheesecake

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups graham cracker crumbs (about 16 whole crackers)
6 tablespoons soy margarine, slightly softened

1 cup canned or fresh cooked pumpkin
1 1/4 cups sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
12 ounces soy cream cheese
1 tablespoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Make the graham cracker crust: In a food processor or blender, process the graham crackers on high speed until they are finely ground.

  • Make the filling: Have all the ingredients at room temperature. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. In a food processor or blender, puree the tofu and pumpkin until smooth. Add the sugar, spices, soy cream cheese, and vanilla and process until smooth. Scrape down the sides as necessary.
  • Pour the tofu mixture into the prepared pie crusts and bake for 50 minutes, until the cheesecake mixture is firm.
  • Turn the oven off, leaving the cake in the oven for 1 hour. Remove and cool to room temperature. Refrigerate the cheesecake overnight. Serve slightly chilled.

Time 50m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2/3 cup canned pumpkin
4 2/3 ounces packages tofu, cubed
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
2 eggs
1/2 cup sugar
3 tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 prepared graham cracker pie crust

  • Fold pumpkin mixture into cream cheese mixture.
  • Pour into crust.
  • Bake about 45 minutes until knife comes out clean.

Tips:

  • Use canned or pureed pumpkin: Fresh pumpkin can be difficult to work with, so using canned or pureed pumpkin is a great time-saver. Make sure to drain the pumpkin well before using it in the cheesecake batter.
  • Don't overbeat the cheesecake batter: Overbeating the batter can result in a dense, crumbly cheesecake. Mix the ingredients just until they are well combined.
  • Bake the cheesecake in a water bath: This will help to prevent the cheesecake from cracking. Place the cheesecake pan in a larger roasting pan filled with hot water.
  • Chill the cheesecake completely before serving: This will allow the cheesecake to set properly and develop its full flavor.
  • Garnish the cheesecake with whipped cream, pumpkin seeds, or a sprinkle of cinnamon before serving: This will add a festive touch to your dessert.
