Ingredients

  • 1 1 cup raw cashews soaked - see notes
  • 6 6 tablespoons water
  • 1 1 tablespoon white vinegar
  • 1 1 teaspoon nutritional yeast
  • 1 1 lemon juiced
  • ¼-½ ¼-½ teaspoon sea salt to taste

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Drain the cashews and then add them to your blender with water, vinegar, nutritional yeast, lemon, and ¼ teaspoon of salt. Blend on high speed until smooth. Taste and add an extra ¼ teaspoon of salt, if desired.
  2. Pour the cashew sour cream into a bowl. Serve immediately or store in a covered container in your fridge for up to a week. Note: this sour cream will thicken when it's chilled.

Notes

  • To soak the cashews, place them in a jar and fill the jar with water. Leave the jar in your fridge for 4-24 hours. If you have a high-powered blender (like a Vitamix), you can avoid soaking the cashews. If you have a regular blender, the cashew sour cream may not be perfectly smooth.
