2 tablespoon neutral-tasting cooking oil

3/4 teaspoon non-alcoholic lemon extract

Recipe



First, prepare your pie crust as follows: Grind coarsely 2-2 1/2 cups of your favorite granola (best if it does not contain fruit pieces), add to it 2 Tbs. wheat germ. Place this dry mix in a pie plate and mix in 1/3 cup of water in which you have dissolved 1 Tbs. of lemonade from concentrate. Mix until granola-wheat germ mix is evenly moistened. Press unto the plate, shaping edges carefully. Pre-heat oven at 350º 5-10 min. Set aside.

Prepare your cheesecake as follows: Combine all ingredients in a bowl. Place half of the mixture in a blender and blend till very smooth, dump into pie crust, repeat with other half. When pie is full, smooth top. Can substitute lemon for orange juice, rind and extract.
