    Easy Vegan Sour Cream

    This Easy Vegan Sour Cream is healthier, easy to make an alternative to store-bought dressings and dips. It is creamy, tangy, and rich in flavor, making it the perfect addition to nachos, tacos and so much more. Keep this sour cream in an airtight container in the fridge for ~1 week, and give it a stir before eating. Pretty perfect for meal prep, right?

    Easy Vegan Sour Cream

    Taco nights just aren’t complete without sour cream. We never have found that one particular brand of vegan sour cream that we’ve all loved. But to be honest, we haven’t looked that hard. I love any excuse to try making a staple like that from scratch. And it usually ends up being much cheaper, especially considering the large quantities we consume as a family of 5 (or 6 if you include the table scrap loving dog).

    But tacos aren’t the only food craving to be satisfied with Vegan Sour Cream. We haven’t even talked about baked potatoes yet. Ooooh, a soft, steaming hot baked potato fresh off the grill and ready to be stuffed with vegan sour cream, chives, coconut bacon bits and so much more… I think I know what we’re having for dinner tonight.

    Ingredients

    • 1 cup Cashews, soaked (measured raw) see notes for quick soak method

    • ¼ cup Olive oil
    • 4 tsp White wine vinegar
    • 1 tbsp Lemon juice
    • ½ tsp Granulated Garlic
    • ¼ tsp Sea Salt

    Instructions

    • Add all ingredients to a high powered blender or Vitamix beginning with the cashews. Blend on high until smooth and creamy. Use a tamper or stop to scrape down the sides as needed.

    Notes

    To Quick Soak Cashews – boil water in a kettle.  Pour the water over the cashews and let them soak for 20 minutes.  Then drain the water and use as called for in the recipe.  Can let them soak for an hour to increase softness, but 20 minutes will do if you’re tight on time.
