Dairy-free cashew sour cream made with five simple ingredients that's rich and creamy with a mild flavor. It makes a great sub for regular sour cream! Vegan + gluten-free.
Add cashews to a bowl and cover with water. Let cashews soak for 1-8 hours. Drain water.
Add soaked cashews, lemon juice, apple cider vinegar and 1/2 cup dairy-free milk into a high-speed blender. Blend on high until creamy, if the mixture seems really thick, add more milk, 1 Tablespoon at a time until the mixture is blending smoothly, but don’t add too much because you don’t want the cream to be too thin.
Once blended, pour sour cream into a dish and serve at room temp or place in the fridge. It will thicken as it chills. Cashew sour cream should last 3-4 days, up to a week in the fridge and up to 6 months if stored in the freezer.
