- 1 cup walnuts (or pecans)
- 1 cup almond flour (or regular flour)
- 1/4 cup white sugar (or coconut sugar)
- 1/2 cup salted butter (or unsalted butter, melted)
- 1 can pumpkin puree (must be 100% pure)
- 3 large eggs (or egg replacements)
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin spice (or a mix of cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger)
- 1/2 cup brown sugar (or white sugar)
- 1 cup oats (gluten-free oats can be used)
- 1/2 cup flour (or gluten-free all-purpose flour)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, combine walnuts, almond flour, white sugar, and melted butter. Mix until crumbly and press into the bottom of the dish.
- Bake this crust for 10 minutes until slightly golden and fragrant, then set aside to cool.
- Blend cream cheese and sugar together until smooth. Beat in the eggs one at a time.
- Pour three-quarters of the cream cheese mixture over the cooled walnut crust and spread evenly.
- Mix the remaining cream cheese mixture with pumpkin puree and pumpkin spice until smooth.
- Spoon the pumpkin mixture over the white cheesecake layer and smooth out.
- Combine oats, sugars, flour, and vanilla extract for streusel topping. Blend until it resembles crumbles.
- Sprinkle streusel topping over the pumpkin layer and bake for 60-70 minutes until edges are set.
- Cool for 15 minutes, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours before slicing into squares.
