Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups raw cashews
- 1.5 cups water
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon coconut aminos
- 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
Place the raw cashews in a medium-sized bowl and cover them with 1.5 cups of water. Let them soak for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to soften.
After soaking, drain the cashews and rinse them under cold water.
In a blender or food processor, combine the drained cashews, lemon juice, coconut aminos, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
Add 0.5 cup of water to the blender or food processor.
Blend the mixture on high speed for about 2-3 minutes, or until the mixture is smooth and creamy. You may need to stop and scrape down the sides occasionally.
Taste the spread and adjust the seasoning if desired by adding more salt or lemon juice to preference.
Transfer the creamy cashew spread to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve chilled, and enjoy this versatile spread on veggies, Whole30-approved crackers, or as a dip.
