Raspberry Cream Pie Recipe

Whether you call this a Raspberry Cheesecake, a Raspberry Cream Pie or a Raspberry Cream Cheese Tart – one thing we can all agree on, this recipe is gluten-free decadence at it’s best!

A rich toasted almond crust serves as the base for this tart, bright and creamy raspberry cheesecake with the perfect zip of lemon tang.

It’s make-ahead, no-bake and built for real life.

No oven, no stress, no sacrificing flavor despite being super easy.

While we recommend toasting the almonds for both flavor and to give the crust more structure, you can toast them in advance, purchase them roasted or simply leave them raw, if you simply don’t want to fire up the oven or if the oven is busy with other recipes.
