Instructions
- Add all ingredients for cashew sour cream to a high-speed blender. Blend for at least 30 seconds or until smooth.
- Pour/scrape sour cream into a small bowl. Add onion flakes, onion powder, and garlic powder. Stir well to combine. (I also like to add chives.)
- Can serve immediately, but it's even better after it chills for a couple hours.
Notes
- *Soaking cashews: Before blending, soak the cashews in room temperature water for at least 4-6 hours or overnight. Then drain and rinse before using. Alternatively, you can "quick soak" the cashews: Place cashews in a heat-safe bowl and carefully add hot/boiling water until cashews are covered. Let sit for about 10-15 minutes. Then rinse and drain.

- Serving suggestions: Serve with crackers, carrots, tomatoes, cucumber, celery, bell pepper, ruffle chips, etc.
