Scale
For the Crust
- 1 cup walnuts, raw and unsalted
- 6 Medjool dates, pitted
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

- 3 cups cashews, soaked

- In a 7-inch cheesecake pan, press the walnut mixture down evenly to cover the bottom and create the crust.
To Make the Filling

- Add the coconut oil and arrowroot powder and blend until combined, about 10 to 15 seconds.
