Ingredients
- 2 cups roasted cashews unsalted or lightly salted
- 1 tablespoon neutral oil or any nut oil
Instructions
- Place the roasted cashews in a food processor and process for 2-3 minutes until crumbly.
- Using a spatula scrape down the sides and process again at low speed for 2 minutes until cashew starts looking like a dough.
- Scrape down the sides again. The cashews should be gritty and start to get smooth by now. If it looks too dry you may add the oil now, but it may not be necessary. The oil will just help it get smoother and creamier.
- Process again at low speed for another 2-3 minutes until it has reached the desired consistency.
- Remove and store in an airtight container or mason jar and store in the pantry for up to 2 months, and store in the fridge for 3-6 months.
