No Bake Lemon Tofu Cheesecake

This light, protein-rich dessert was shared with us by a Go Dairy Free reader.
Ingredients
- 20 ounces firm silken tofu
- 1 1/4 cups soymilk powder
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup agave nectar
- 6 to 7 tablespoons lemon juice
- Zest of 2 lemons
- 2 tablespoons non-GMO canola oil or your favorite neutral-tasting oil
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup water
- 6 teaspoons agar agar powder
- 1 10-inch prepared dairy-free crust (gluten-free, if needed)
Instructions
- 1
Put the tofu, soymilk powder, sweeteners, lemon juice, lemon zest, oil, vinegar, vanilla, and salt in your blender or food processor and process until smooth.
- 2
Put the water and agar powder in a saucepan over medium heat. Bring it just to a boil, reduce the heat to low, and simmer) for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- 3
With your blender or food processor running, pour the agar mixture through the hole or chute. Agar sets up very quickly, so it needs to be blended immediately to avoid a lumpy cheesecake.
- 4
Pour the mixture into your prepared crust and chill for 3 hours, or until set.
