Notes

  • Nut or Seed Options: I've made this recipe using both cashews and almonds and both have turned out great. The cashew version is a little creamier, but both are simply delicious.
  • I haven't tried the hemp version yet but I know it will taste great. It will likely be a little thicker since more hemp fits in a measuring cup (less air space) so I think adding just a little more water will be needed. 
  • Sweetener Options: Really any sweetener can be used for this recipe. Just make sure to use whatever amount is a 1:1 for sugar, otherwise you'll need to adjust for the difference.
  • Storage: Can be stored in the fridge in an airtight container for about a week. Stir leftovers before serving if separated. Freezing not recommended.
