Learn how to make vegan cream cheese at home

Hello!

There are many vegan cream cheese options in supermarkets these days. These options are highly processed, contain no fiber, and the amount of saturated fat is about the same as regular cream cheese. This recipe is simple and quick to make, it is also delicious, nutritious and that way you make sure that the ingredients are of high quality.

The ingredients you will need are:

1 cup cashews soaked for at least 2 hours

1/4 cup fresh lemon juice

2 tablespoons of olive oil

1/2 teaspoon sea salt

1/4 cup of water

You can add fresh herbs or spices to flavor the cheese if you like.

Once you have all your ingredients, follow these steps:

Drain and rinse the soaked cashews.

Place the cashews, lemon juice, olive oil, sea salt, and water in a blender and process until smooth and creamy.

At this time, you can add the herbs or spices to the cheese if you are going to use them and process for a few more seconds.

Serve the fresh cream cheese or store it in a covered container in the fridge for about 7 days.

And ready! Now you have your own vegan cream cheese at home, gluten-free and without refined sugar. This cheese is perfect for use in sandwiches, dips or cooking and is a healthy and sustainable option to replace traditional cheese. I hope you enjoy your homemade vegan cream cheese!
