Prep and Assemble
  1. In a food processor, blend the blanched almonds, dried apricots, and sea salt until crumbly and sticky. Press into a lined 9" loaf pan. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Soak cashews in warm water for 30 minutes or use boiled water. Drain, then blend with vegan cream cheese, yogurt, melted coconut oil, peach preserves, lemon juice, vanilla extract, sugar, and cinnamon until smooth. Pour over chilled crust.
  3. Slice peaches and toss with brown sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Let sit for 20 minutes, then cook in a saucepan over medium heat for 5-7 minutes until softened but not mushy.
  4. Spread the peach topping over the set cheesecake. Chill for another 30-60 minutes before serving.
  5. Use a hot, wet knife to slice and serve chilled. Enjoy within 3 days or freeze individual slices for up to a month.
