Best 4 Pomegranate Cheesecake With Clementine Gelato Recipes

POMEGRANATE CHEESECAKE WITH CLEMENTINE GELATO RECIPE - (4.4/5)

Steps:

• BASE: First process cashews until they become fine as flour. Add remaining ingredients and process again. Press into the bottom of a 9″ springform pan and place in fridge whilst working on filling. FILLING: Blend all ingredients in a high speed blender under smooth. Pour on top of the base. Place in the freezer to set. Once it's set, the cheesecake can be moved to, and stored in, the fridge until ready to eat CLEMENTINE GELATO: Blend all ingredients in a high-speed blender until smooth. Taste for sweetness-you may need to add extra agave if your clementines weren't that sweet. Pour mixture into a rectangular container and place in the freezer to set. Once set, pass through a juicer with a homogenizing attachment on. Alternatively, you can pour the mixture (unfrozen) into an ice-cream maker.

CHEESECAKE WITH POMEGRANATE SAUCE

Steps:

• For the crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Wrap 3 layers of foil around the outside of a 9-inch-diameter springform pan with 3-inch-high sides. Butter the pan.
• Combine the graham crackers, sugar and salt in a food processor and pulse until crumbly. Add the butter and pulse until moistened. Press the crumb mixture evenly onto the bottom and 1 1/2 inches up the sides of the prepared pan. Bake just until golden brown, about 15 minutes. Let cool completely.
• Reduce the oven temperature to 325 degrees F.
• For the filling: In an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the cream cheese on medium speed until fluffy. Add the sugar and vanilla and beat until combined. Add the eggs 1 at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add the sour cream and mix until smooth, about 35 seconds. Pour the filling into the cooled crust.
• Set the cheesecake in a large baking pan. Add enough hot water to the baking pan to come 1 inch up the sides of the cheesecake pan. Bake until almost set (the center will move slightly when the pan is gently shaken) but not puffed, about 1 hour. Let cool at room temperature for 2 hours. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate until completely cooled, preferably overnight or for at least 6 hours.
• For the pomegranate sauce: Combine the pomegranate juice and sugar in a saucepan and cook over high heat until reduced to 1/2 cup, about 15 minutes. Let cool. Add the pomegranate seeds and mix to combine.
• Pour the pomegranate sauce on top of the cooled cheesecake and serve.
