No-Bake Cheesecakes ~ All The Details
No-Bake Cheesecakes are simply AWESOME. Please refer to this post before making cheesecakes. I’ve put together all the best information in one place for you.
First, Let’s Talk About Cream Cheese Options
When you’re dairy free, there aren’t a lot of options when it comes to cream cheese. If you’re big on homesteading, you can make it yourself. That would be the cleanest option. If you’re new to dairy free and have no idea where to being, you’re most likely looking to make a purchase. Below are the three leading brands of cream cheese available in most stores that cater to people with food allergies. However, be warned, they each come with strings attached. Read More
Allergy Friendly Cookies ‘N Creme No-Bake Cheesecake & Peppermint Creme No-Bake Cheesecake
If you asked the kids, they would tell you that I have saved the best for last. That may be true. Cookies ‘N Creme is one of their all time favorite flavors, so it’s no surprise that they took to this cheesecake so quickly.
If you have a soy allergy along with a wheat allergy, I’m sorry but you won’t be able to make this recipe easily. The only allergy friendly creme cookie is made by Kinnikinnick, and it contains soy (and potato). You would need to make your own cookie at home first and then use it along with either Kite Hill or Daiya cream cheese. While it can be done, it’s not quick and easy, which is what this No-Bake Cheesecake Series is all about.

Allergy Friendly Coffee No-Bake Cheesecake
Can I share something with you: no one in our house likes, or drinks, coffee. However, through the magic of our bakery, everyone LOVES coffee desserts now. Our Low/No Sugar Kid says that the Grain Free Coffee Cookies (and Rose) are his favorites, and The Papa really likes the Coffee Bean Cupcake. Cracks me up every time. If you really enjoy an intense coffee flavor, experiment with the amount of coffee that you use in this recipe.

Allergy Friendly Maple Bacon No-Bake Cheesecake
Our kids LOVE bacon, and I can totally see where they’re coming from on that. If you’re vegan, there are several vegan bacon options. However, if you’re vegan with food allergies, you may need to make your own at home. All of the commercial options that I’ve been able to find each contain major allergens, especially coconut.

Allergy Friendly Vanilla No-Bake Cheesecake
Vanilla – a true classic indeed. This is the most basic of all of the No-Bake Cheesecakes we’ve shared with you. It’s a great way for you to learn the foundation of the No-Bake cheesecake making, and of course, is an awesome choice if you like all things vanilla. What I personally love about it is that I was able to jazz these up with frosting from our Bakery. Vanilla pairs well with everything, making it the cheesecake of choice to try this with.

Allergy Friendly Lemon Saffron No-Bake Cheesecake
I have to share several things with you about this cheesecake. First, I love the color. It’s naturally a light golden-yellow… I just love how elegant it looks. During the creation of this cheesecake, we learned an important lesson – we don’t like saffron. Now, it could be the brand that I purchased, however, we weren’t enlightened like I thought we would be. As someone who has a dream of creating Michelin quality dishes, saffron is simply a must. I just knew that we would all somehow understand the world better, have this ah-ha moment, and just love saffron. With all the hype I had going into this, you can only imagine my let down. However, if you like saffron, you’ll love this recipe. You can also leave it out and go with Lemon Maple instead. Either way, the texture is good, and everyone still ate all of the cheesecakes (laughing emoji). What I did enjoy about this however – I crafted it with our Low/No Sugar kid in mind, and he really did enjoy it.

Allergy Friendly Rose No-Bake Cheesecake
This is the cheesecake that taught me quite a lesson. The cream cheese to liquid ratio is a delicate balance that you can’t disrupt. However, what if you simply use less liquid? In theory young jedi that should work. However, in practice, you end up with something that as the kids say, “tastes like you’re just eating cream cheese”. So you see, you need liquid, so in this recipe, you’ll see that extra cream cheese had to be used to save the filling from the dreaded droop. Droop will happen in the fridge if there’s too much liquid and the cheesecake is unable to stand on its own. Don’t let this stop you from experimenting though. I personally have enjoyed every lesson learned in the journey of cheesecake making.
If you’ve been reading through all of the cheesecake posts, you may wonder why on earth I made so many. Simple, to give everyone with food allergies and special diets something to choose from. In this case, our Allergy Kid absolutely loves all things rose.

Allergy Friendly Peach No-Bake Cheesecake
This recipe calls for jam, and this is where we may all go in a different direction. Depending on the jam you use, you may or may not need as much oat flour, and may be able to leave it out all together. Our particular jam in this case is imported (Alce Nero), and special as it’s pectin/binder free. Inna Jam is another AMAZING jam choice.

Allergy Friendly Light Egg Nog No-Bake Cheesecake
Egg Nog? Yes! Cheesecake? Absolutely! One of my favorite things to do is combine desserts because why on earth should we have to choose.
