Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 large Baguette
- 1 cup Cashews
- 3 tablespoons Nutritional Yeast
- 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion Powder
- 2 tablespoons Lemon Juice
- 3 tablespoons Water
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon Olive Oil
- 0.25 cup Fresh Basil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Slice the baguette into 1-inch thick slices on a diagonal, creating enough pieces to evenly spread the cheese mixture over each slice.
In a bowl, soak the cashews in hot water for at least 10 minutes to soften.
Drain the cashews and place them in a food processor.
Add nutritional yeast, garlic powder, onion powder, lemon juice, water, and salt to the food processor.
Blend the ingredients together until smooth, scraping down the sides as needed, to create the vegan cheese spread.
Spread approximately one tablespoon of the vegan cheese on each slice of baguette.
Arrange the slices on a baking sheet and drizzle lightly with olive oil.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes or until the edges of the bread are golden and crispy.
Remove from the oven, and garnish with fresh basil leaves before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy your vegan cheese baguette!
