Time 2h20m

Yield 12 Slices, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

8 ounces gluten free gingersnap cookies, Midel
3 tablespoons butter, earth balance
16 ounces cream cheese, dairy free (room temperature)
1/4 cup dairy free sour cream
1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree
3/4 cup unrefined sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
3 eggs, room temperature beaten

Steps:

  • Directions:.
  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
  • Make Crust:.
  • Run butter stick along bottom and sides of springform pan.
  • Melt the rest.
  • Grind cookies in food processor then add melted butter and press mixture into pan.
  • Bake for 15-20 min until slightly brown.
  • Make Filling:.
  • Boil water for water bath.
  • Beat cream cheese until smooth.
  • add sugar, mix.
  • add sour cream, mix.
  • add pumpkin, mix.
  • add beaten eggs, vanilla, spices and cornstarch & mix.
  • Pour into crust.
  • When crust is cooled wrap pan with foil and fill baking pan with boiling water to half the height of the springform contents. Place cake into water bath.
  • Bake approx 1 hr till outside is set but inside is still a tiny bit loose. Then turn oven off and leave door slightly open and leave cake in oven for another 30 minute (my water had leaked into foil so I took my cake out of the water bath for this time. The water did not get into the cake though.).
  • Allow to cool on rack.
  • Run a knife around the edges and refrigerate for 6-8hrs or overnight until firm.
  • *note: we ate it after cooling 6hrs same day and it was good but it was much better the next day after sitting overnight and allowing the flavors to settle and meld. Enjoy!

Not a fan of the gluten-free crust. It was too dry and didn't hold together well. The filling was good though.

The crust was a little crumbly, but the filling was creamy and flavorful. Overall, a good gluten-free and dairy-free option.

The cheesecake was a bit too dense for my liking, but the flavor was on point. I'll try experimenting with the ingredients next time.

Tried this recipe for a friend's birthday and it was a huge success. The cheesecake was light, fluffy, and had just the right amount of sweetness. Definitely a keeper!

I've tried many gluten-free and dairy-free cheesecakes before, but this one is by far the best. The crust is crispy and the filling is smooth and velvety. Amazing!

Easy to make and absolutely delicious. My family loved it, even the ones who aren't gluten-free or dairy-free. Definitely going into my regular dessert rotation.
