Greek Yogurt Cheesecake - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    Crust:
    2 cups chopped almonds
    1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
    5 dried figs
    1 teaspoon sea salt
    Cheesecake:
    2 lemons, juiced
    2 teaspoons unflavored gelatin
    2 cups Greek yogurt
    1 (15 ounce) can cream of coconut
    2/3 cup honey
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1 vanilla bean
    Berry Topping:
    2 cups frozen blueberries
    1 lemon, zested and juiced
    1 tablespoon honey
    1 tablespoon arrowroot powder
Preparation
    Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Spread almonds onto a baking sheet.
    Bake almonds in the preheated oven until roasted and fragrant, 10 to 15 minutes.
    Combine almonds, coconut oil, figs, and sea salt in a food processor; pulse until well combined. Press almond mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan; refrigerate until cooled, at least 30 minutes.
    Heat juice from 2 lemons and gelatin in the top of a double boiler over simmering water until gelatin is dissolved, about 5 minutes.
    Process yogurt, cream of coconut, 2/3 cup honey, vanilla extract, salt, and vanilla bean together in a food processor until well combined, about 1 minute. Drizzle gelatin mixture through the feeding tube of the food processor while it is still running and process until incorporated, about 30 seconds. Pour yogurt mixture over the cooled crust; cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate, 8 hours to overnight.
    Heat blueberries, zest and juice from 1 lemon, 1 tablespoon honey, and arrowroot powder together in a small saucepan over medium heat until thickened, 5 to 10 minutes. Pour mixture into a blender and blend until smooth. Pour topping over chilled cheesecake.
