Cashew Cardamom Cream
Catherine Barclay
This Cashew Cardamom Cream is a luscious vegan dessert topping featuring the rich creaminess of cashews blended with the exotic warmth of cardamom and cinnamon. Perfectly sweetened and irresistibly smooth, this indulgent treat adds a touch of luxury to any dish, with its delicate balance of nutty richness and aromatic spice.
- 1 cup raw cashew nuts
- ¼ cup maple syrup
- 1 tsp lemon juice
- ⅛ tsp ground cinnamon
- ⅛ tsp ground cardamom
- ¼ cup soy milk
- ½ vanilla bean
Place the cashews in hot water and set aside.
If the vanilla bean is dried, soak it in boiling water for at least 15 minutes to soften.
Drain the vanilla bean and cashews, cut the bean in half and add half to a blender along with the cashews and all the other ingredients.
Blend until creamy and smooth. Store the cashew cream in a sealed container in the fridge for 3-4 days ... if it lasts that long.
