What you need

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Raw Almonds, soaked overnight and peeled
  • 3 tbsp Unsweetened Almond Milk
  • 2 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
  • 1 tbsp Nutritional Yeast
  • 1/2 tsp Salt

Method

Instructions

  1. Drain and peel the soaked almonds — the skins slip off easily after soaking.
  2. Combine the peeled almonds, almond milk, lemon juice, nutritional yeast, and salt in a food processor.
  3. Process for 3 to 4 minutes, scraping down the sides often, until completely smooth and creamy.
  4. Adjust consistency with an extra teaspoon of almond milk if needed, one at a time.
  5. Transfer to a container and refrigerate; it will firm up further as it chills.
