You are still looking for a good dairy-free alternative to cream cheese? Then look no more - 'cause you can easily make it yourself! This plantbased, fermented cream cheese with cashews, chives and red onion is just as good as the original but much healthier.<\/em><\/p>\n If I had known that making vegan cream cheese is that easy, I could have saved a lot of time looking for a tasty store-bought planbased alternative. And compared to some of those \"cheese\" products out there, the ingredients in this recipe are much healthier. <\/p>\n In my non-vegan years, I was not really a big cheese-lover, but my boyfriend is. Making vegan cheese sauce is not a big deal anymore (there are tons of recipes out there). However, making vegan cheese slices, shreds or cream cheese is something I haven't mastered yet. And I think just blending up some cashews and adding some spices doesn't bring you the results that you would expect when thinking of cream cheese. It's missing this ... tangy flavor ... the \"cheesy-ness\"! It would definitely not satisfy your \"cheese\"-cravings - at least that's the case for me and my boyfriend.<\/p>\n This plantbased cream cheese recipe is different. Yes, there are cashews in this one as well but also a bunch of probiotics<\/strong> - and that's the game changer! The fermentation process makes the cashew cream a bit \"airy\" and still creamy and it brings out this \"tangy\" flavor of a real cream cheese. Add in chopped up chives, red onions and some salt and your are good to You might be thinking: \"Fermentation? That sounds too complicated!\" - don't fret! This recipe is actually pretty easy to make<\/strong> and requires just a few ingredients.<\/p>\n 1. Soak cashews in water for a few hours.<\/p>\n 2. Drain cashews and blend with filtered water and the contents of two probiotic capsulses.<\/p>\n 3. Transfer the mixtures into a clean class, cover with a clean cloth and wait for 24 h.<\/p>\n That's it. At the end you simply add a few herbs and spices, but as you can see, there is not much active \"cooking time\" involved. So, what are you waiting for?!<\/p>\n If you try this vegan fermented cream cheese, let me know in the comments below or rate the recipe. You can also show me your creation on instagram<\/a> (#veggiejam<\/strong>).<\/p>\n I'm gonna have breakfast now - whole grain bread with vegan cream cheese, yum!<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
