This dairy-free cashew sour cream is the best all-around topping. It goes great on chili, baked potatoes, or quesadillas. Sour cream was one of the things I missed the most when making the switch to vegan and this stuff is a staple.
This cashew sour cream is versatile and can be used in recipes, soups, or as a topping. Try it on this spicy chili, these tofu and veggie stuffed pancakes, or on your favorite dish!
Keep it in the fridge for up to 5 days. Sadly I have never frozen this, but if you do, let us know how it went in the comments!
Instructions
- Soak your cashews in boiling water for at least 5 minutes, but I recommend soaking them for 30 minutes to an hour to soften them and make them creamier.
- In a blender or food processor, blend all ingredients until smooth and no solid pieces remain.
- Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Enjoy fresh and keep it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
