Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Soak the Cashews: Place the raw cashews in a bowl and cover them with water. Let them soak for at least 2 hours or overnight. This step helps soften the cashews for a smooth and creamy texture.

  2. Drain and Rinse: Drain the soaked cashews and give them a quick rinse under cold water.

  3. Blend Cashews: In a food processor or high-speed blender, combine the soaked cashews, unsweetened almond milk, nutritional yeast, lemon juice, salt, and garlic powder.

  4. Blend Until Smooth: Blend the mixture on high speed until smooth and creamy. You may need to stop and scrape down the sides a few times to ensure everything is well combined.

  5. Adjust Consistency: If the mixture is too thick, you can add a splash more almond milk to reach the desired cottage cheese-like consistency.

  6. Taste and Adjust Seasoning: Give the dairy-free cottage cheese a taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. You can add more salt, lemon juice, or garlic powder to suit your preference.

  7. Chill and Serve: Transfer the dairy-free cottage cheese to a bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.

  8. Enjoy: Serve your Dairy-Free Cottage Cheese with your favorite crackers, fresh vegetables, or use it as a topping for salads or baked potatoes. Get creative with your pairings and savor the deliciousness!
