Vegan cheesecake. Is there such a thing? Yep. This Maple Cheesecake with Glazed Apples is just what you need.
Picture an elegant, beautifully decorated cheesecake. Now, imagine telling everyone you made it. Can you hear the ooh-and-ah from your mother-in-law? The way your boss smiles in admiration? Yep, it’s all for your stunning Maple Cheesecake with Glazed Apples. I can almost hear the applause. And here’s the best part – you really can do it. We’re going to tell you how.
Cheesecakes are often considered to be tricky or advanced desserts, but truth be told, it’s not because of the techniques required. It’s because most people can’t follow the directions and rush some portion of the process. Perfect cheesecake is about taking your time. You must start with all room temperature ingredients. For real. It’s crucial you don’t skip this step. And next, you must mix gradually and thoroughly. Finally – stay with me – you absolutely positively must let the cooling process happen very, very slowly. If you don’t, the cheesecake may not set up properly or may grow a big crack down the middle.
So, if you can follow directions, this Maple Cheesecake with Glazed Apples recipe is for you. It will elevate you to rock star status at gatherings this holiday season and leave everyone guessing as to when you took cooking classes.
To make this cake, you will need a 10-inch Springform pan. As written, this recipe is vegan and gluten-free. It serves about 12 people, unless you cut huge portions – which can happen!
