Vegan Sour Cream

Just like its dairy-filled counterpart, this vegan sour cream is thick, creamy, tangy, and deliciously satisfying!

Vegan Sour Cream
Yield: 2-3 cups

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups raw cashews, soaked in water overnight
• 3/4 cup water
• 2 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
• 1 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
• 1/2 tsp salt
• OPTIONAL: 1 cup unsweetened non-dairy yogurt

Directions

1. Drain water from cashews and add to high powered blender (such as Nutri Ninja). Add 3/4 cup fresh water, apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, and salt. Blend until very smooth. (I run multiple blend cycles on my Ninja to reach the perfect consistency.)
2. Pour cashew mixture into a bowl and stir in yogurt. This is optional, but it elevates the sour cream to another level in terms of texture and flavor!
3. Use sour cream immediately, or transfer to a small covered container and refrigerate for up to a week. (It also freezes well.) Enjoy!
