This versatile, vegan cream cheese substitute can be used in sweet desserts, as a savoury spread on bagels, or as a general replacement for regular cream cheese.
Method
- Place all ingredients into the Vitamix container in the order listed and secure the lid.
- Run the smoothie program or start the blender on its lowest speed, then quickly increase it to its highest speed.
- Blend for 40-50 seconds, using the tamper to push ingredients towards the blades. Chill for 6-8 hours before using.
Chef Notes:
Make this a day ahead of time to significantly thicken the mixture. A great non-dairy alternative to traditional cream cheese. Opting for a cashew-based cream cheese means you’re swapping out saturated fat for healthy fat.
