Ingredients for tofu cheeasecake.
  • Cream Cheese

Let me show you how to make it. You can also watch this recipe video.

How to make tofu cheesecake step by step.

Before starting, bring cream cheese to room temperature, preheat an oven to 170C/338F, and set parchment paper in a cake pan.

  1. Put cream cheese in a large bowl and whisk until smooth.
  2. Add egg and whisk until smooth.
  3. Add tofu and whisk until smooth.
  4. Add sugar and whisk until smooth.
  5. Add flour and whisk until smooth.

Here you go! Look at this delicious golden brown cheesecake!

Please take out your cheesecake from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack. When it's cool enough, cover it and transfer it into the fridge.

You can eat it right away, but the best thing is to let it sit overnight in the fridge and eat it the next day!

Storage

Keep it in the fridge, and it will last for five days.

Helpful Tips

  • If you like an extra smooth texture, make tofu cream using a food processor or high-speed blender before adding it to a large bowl.
  • The texture is soft and light, but if you add lemon juice at the end, it will help make it richer.
  • A little bit of vanilla extract will add that sweet flavor.

Variations

It would be fun to try out some of these variations!

  • Matcha Tofu Baked Cheesecake: Add 1 teaspoon matcha powder
  • Chocolate Tofu Baked Cheesecake: Add 100g, Dark Chocolate
  • Strawberry Tofu Baked Cheesecake: Add 3 tablespoon strawberries puree
