Pumpkin Cheesecake




Inspired by Rebecca I decided to finally have a go at making a vegan cheesecake at the weekend. I've had a can of pumpkin puree lurking at the back of the cupboard for many a moon so I thought I'd try to somehow combine the two. I blended the pumpkin with vanilla, sugar, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, firm & silken tofu & a little flour. The base is make from gingernuts & pecans & the top is glazed with maple syrup. Didn't turn out badly at all.
