No Bake Pumpkin Cheesecake
This No Bake Pumpkin Cheesecake is the perfect fall dessert. It has sweet, soft and chewy 2 ingredient crust and is filled with a smooth cashew pumpkin cheesecake filling. This healthy and delicious pumpkin cheesecake is also paleo, vegan and gluten-free.
.
I have taken my love for no-bake treats one step further and created a chilled Pumpkin Pie Cheesecake that might be better than any traditional Pumpkin Pie I have ever made.
It is so delicious that you won’t believe how easy it is to make, that it only has 6 wholesome ingredients.
The pumpkin cheesecake filling is rich, creamy, and sweet, while the crust is nutty and chewy. All while being vegan, paleo, and gluten-free.
And did I mention, there is no oven needed to make this healthy pumpkin cheesecake recipe? Perfect make-ahead dessert to make for a holiday party or meal prep to store in the freezer.

This is not the first time I’m recreating and healthifying a pumpkin pie recipe.
Last year, these healthy pumpkin pie bars ended up being my favorite, and the year before that, this Paleo Pumpkin Pie definitely was the winner.
However, this is a slightly different approach that I think you will and up loving, just like I do.

Is this No Bake Pumpkin Cheesecake Healthy?

A delicious perfect pumpkin pie that’s healthy? Well, yes indeed!
This No Bake Pumpkin Cheesecake is as healthy as it gets while still being considered a dessert.
The reason why it’s healthy is that it’s made with simple, healthy, and wholesome ingredients.
These are no cream, butter, evaporated milk, wheat flour, or refined sugar, which means this pumpkin cheesecake pie is completely gluten-free and dairy-free, naturally vegan, and Paleo-approved.
Although I’m all for treating oneself once in a while, and especially during the holiday season or during special events or celebrations, it always feels good to know that you are feeding your body good, and foremost, real food.

Ingredients for this No Bake Pumpkin cheesecake

All that is needed to make this paleo pumpkin pie are six, yes, 6 ingredients. They are all real whole foods that are good for you.
Pumpkin Cheesecake Filling
Raw cashews
The cashews need to be soaked before added to the filling. Soaking the nuts will result in a smoothie pie filling, and the nutrients will be more accessible for the body. Read more about the benefits of soaking nuts here.
Medjool dates
To sweeten this recipe dates are used. Not only do they provide a delicious sweetness to the pumpkin pie filling, but they will also provide a gooey texture.
Pumpkin puree
You can either make your own pumpkin puree using my easy recipe or use store-bought. In that case, make sure to get pumpkin puree, and not pumpkin pie filling which has a lot of added ingredients.

Coconut flour
Coconut flour is great for no-bake recipes, it is also keeping this pumpkin cheesecake gluten-free
Pumpkin Pie Spice
The magical spice blend will make this pie taste like heaven.
Pumpkin Pie Crust
Medjool dates
Raw almonds
Tools needed
High-speed blender or food processor
Note: the raw almonds may be a bit rough on the food processor. I recommend using a high-speed blender to break it up before using the food processor.

How to make Healthy Pumpkin Pie Cheesecake

This No Bake Paleo Pumpkin Pie Cheesecake is made in two different segments.
Start with preparing the gluten-free pie crust, and then move one to the healthy pie filling.
Start with mixing the almonds in a high-speed mixer. When the almonds have broken up into smaller pieces, transfer to a food processor (if you have one, otherwise keep using the mixer. If you only have a food processor, that should work for the whole process too. However, the texture might differ slightly).

Then, add pitted Medjool dates to the food processor as well. Pulse until the texture is gooey and well combined.
Press the pie crust dough into a round 7-inch pie pan. Make sure to get an even layer working from the middle and out.
Then, let the gluten-free pie crust rest in the fridge while making the pie filling.

Clean the food processor and wipe it dry.
Now, add soaked and rinsed cashews and pitted Medjool dates to a clean food processor. Pulse until smooth.
Then, add pumpkin puree and pumpkin pie spice to the date and cashew paste. Mix well.
Add coconut flour to the pumpkin pie filling, a little at a time, until the texture is just perfect.

Lastly, pour the pumpkin pie filling into the chilled gluten-free pie crust.
Put the pumpkin pie back in the freezer and let it chill for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.

How to serve this No Bake Pumpkin Cheesecake

This delicious Paleo Pumpkin Pie can be served in so many ways depending on the occasion and your mood.
However, always serve it straight from the freezer. It almost tastes like a pumpkin ice cream pie! Sounds amazing, right!?
Serve this gluten-free pumpkin cheesecake with:
- Dairy free whipped cream
Whipped cream is the classic topping for pumpkin pie. Dust with some pumpkin spice or cinnamon as well
- Cream cheese frosting
My vegan cashew cream cheese frosting is perfect to pair with this healthy pumpkin cheesecake!
- Melted chocolate ganache
Make a quick chocolate ganache by melting 1/4 cup of coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Then whisk in 1/4 cup of cacao powder, 2-3 table spoon of maple syrup, and 2 table spoons of peanut butter. Stir until smooth.
Drizzle over the pumpkin pie and enjoy!
How to store the no bake pumpkin cheesecake

This healthy pumpkin cheesecake needs to be stored in the FREEZER!
It does not need any defrost time, so I simply recommend taking it out from the freezer when you are ready to serve it.
It WILL soften if you leave it out at room temperature for over 10 minutes.
