Shavuot: Cashew Cream

Vegan cashew cream with berries

There’s no need to skip on all of the treats of Shavuot because they can be made with non-dairy options! One magic ingredient that can be used to swap out a lot of dairy is cashew cream. It’s a delicious, versatile recipe to use in both sweet and savory dishes. It can be added to soups, used to make vegan cheeses, dips, sour cream, as a replacement for whip cream, added to salad dressings and so much more. I like to make a big batch of it and add it to different recipes throughout the week. I made a simple fruit salad dish with cashew cream whip cream for Shavuot.

Cashew Cream Fruit Salad

Ingredients:
1. 1 cup raw cashews
2. 1/2 cup non dairy milk (I used almond)
3. 3 cups chopped fruit

Preparation:

1. Soak the cashews overnight in 1 cup water
2. Drain the cashew. Add to a blender with the non-dairy milk. Adjust the amount of liquid depending on how thick you want your cashew cream.
3. Once it is creamy and thick, remove from blender.
4. If you want to use it in sweet dishes, add vanilla when blending.
5. Add chopped fruit and top with a dollop of the cashew cream. Optional sprinkle with coconut, mint, cacao nibs or a drizzle of date syrup.
