- 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
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!
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.
