Heavy Cream Substitute without Dairy
We love cashews and we LOVE cashew cream. Add this to your coffee, chowders, sauces, overnight oats (just add more water to make it more milk like). It thickens up sauces and also works as a great cheese alternative in dishes like spaghetti sauce or mac and cheese.
Cashews are also very healthy for you and they are extremely easy on your digestive system compare to other nuts.
How to Make Cashew Cream
This cashew cream recipe is ridiculously easy.
First, get some RAW cashews, not roasted, and soak them in water for 2 hours.
Drain and rinse, then add the ingredients to a food processor or high speed blender and blend on high until completely smooth.
Add water as needed to reach desired consistency. So you can have a thicker cream or cashew milk.
