Raw Cashew Cream (Paleo/ Vegan/ Dairy Free)

I’ve been making cashew cream for approximately four years. I absolutely love it! It is so versatile in the dairy free diet! I have used it as a sour cream, cream cheese and dip.

 

Raw Cashew Cream (Paleo/ Vegan/ Dairy Free)

1 c. raw cashews

4 Tbsp. lemon juice
1 tsp. sea salt

Add nuts to food processor or blender. Add remaining ingredients.Puree until smooth. Good used as in place of sour cream, cheese or veggie dip.

  1. My husband has a cashew allergy and I have both a dairy and gluten allergy. Can you suggest an alternative nut to use for the cashew cream?

    1. Sorry, no. I will be publishing my coconut cream dip soon. You could give that a try.

    1. Sorry,I used to use an herbed sea salt that had little bits of onion and garlic in them. Now I just use sea salt. I have updated the recipe.
