Ingredients

  • ½ cup raw cashews soaked for 15-20 minutes in hot water
  • ¼ cup dairy-free milk
  • 1 medium-size banana
  • 2 tablespoons honey or pure maple syrup
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • pinch of fine sea salt

Instructions

  • First step: soak cashews in hot water for 15-20 minutes. Strain excess water.
  • To a high speed blender, add the soaked cashews, banana, milk, honey, vanilla and salt. Blend until smooth and creamy. You may need to scrape down the sides in between blending.
  • Taste test to see if you prefer more sweetness, salt, or would like a thinner consistency (add more milk) and adjust accordingly. Note: the texture will thicken slightly during refrigeration (if prepping in advance).
  • Serve immediately layered with coconut whipped cream and vanilla wafers (optional), and enjoy!

Notes

If making recipe as listed, a smaller blender like the NutriBullet works best. For larger batches, I recommend using a Vitamix or similar large capacity high speed blender.
Nutrition facts are assuming 2 servings and do not include whipped cream or vanilla wafers.
