Preheat your oven to 210°C (410°F). Line a 7-inch springform pan with parchment paper, ensuring the paper reaches above the rim for easy removal later.
In a large mixing bowl, add vegan cream cheese and coconut cream. Use a hand mixer to blend until smooth and creamy.
Add erythritol, almond flour, vanilla extract, lemon juice, nutritional yeast, and salt. Continue mixing until all ingredients are thoroughly incorporated into a smooth batter.
Pour the cheesecake batter into the prepared springform pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 40-45 minutes or until the top is a deep golden brown and the center is still slightly jiggly.
Turn off the oven and crack the door open slightly, allowing the cheesecake to cool gradually in the oven for about 15 minutes.
Remove the cheesecake from the oven and let it cool to room temperature. Once cooled, refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, to allow it to set properly.
When ready to serve, remove the cheesecake from the springform pan and peel away the parchment paper. Slice and enjoy your creamy, keto-friendly vegan Basque cheesecake!
