Report
Avocado Crema is a creamy and versatile sauce that blends avocado, sour cream, lime, and garlic together. It’s easy to make and comes together in 5 minutes!
Share:
Ingredients
- 2 avocados, peeled and pitted
- 1/4 cup cilantro, optional
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt plus more to taste
- 1 1/2 limes juiced (about 3 tbsp)
- 1 clove garlic
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to a blender or food processor and blend until smooth, scraping sides down as needed.
- Transfer to a jar or a squeeze bottle and serve immediately, or refrigerate until ready to serve.
Notes
- Makes 1 1/2 cups total.
- If the crema is too thick, mix in 1 tablespoon of water at a time until it reaches your desired consistency.
- If the crema is too thin, blend in another half of an avocado, or a tablespoon of sour cream at a time until you reach the desired consistency.
- Storage: The leftover crema will last up to 5 days in the fridge. Keep it in a sealed jar, container, or squeeze bottle. If making the crema way ahead of time, store it in an airtight container with plastic wrap pressed directly to the surface to keep the avocado from browning (see photo in blog post).
