Making Vanilla Cashew Cream is super easy!
INGREDIENTS
1 cup raw good quality - unsalted cashews- soak for 2 - 12 hours
1/2 cup (120ml) filtered water - you can add more to taste
2 tablespoons pure maple syrup - you can add more to taste
(substitute agave syrup, date syrup, or soaked medjool date or stevia)1 teaspoon natural vanilla extract - you can add more to taste
a small pinch of sea salt
INSTRUCTIONS
Drain the cashews, and discard the water they were in -The longer you soak the cashews, the creamier your cashew cream will be! The cashews are ready when they break apart when pressed between two fingers.
Pour the fresh 1/2 cup filtered water into the blender, and add the soaked cashews with the maple syrup, vanilla, and salt - use a blender over a food processor - the cashew cream will be more silky and smooth.
Blast on high for 30 to 60 seconds, until smooth and creamy. Tweak water, sweetener and vanilla to taste - be sure to stop the blender and scrape down the sides at least once while blending.
Transfer to a sealed container in the fridge, and chill for a few hours to thicken.
Add to pie or muffins or cupcakes! Yummy! 😋🤗
The cream will keep in the fridge for about 5 days.
