Place the raw almonds into a food processor or high-powered blender. If desired, peel the almonds for a smoother texture, but this step is optional.
Add the nutritional yeast, garlic powder, and salt to the food processor with the almonds.
Pulse the mixture in short bursts, stopping to scrape down the sides as needed, until the consistency resembles a coarse powder. Be careful not to over-process, as this can turn the mixture into almond butter.
Taste and adjust seasoning, adding more salt or nutritional yeast if desired for a cheesier flavor.
Transfer the vegan parmesan into an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks.
Sprinkle Almesan Vegan Parmesan on your favorite dishes such as pasta, pizza, or roasted vegetables for a delicious, cheesy flavor.
