HOW TO MAKE VEGAN COFFEE CREAMER
Most creamy sauces in vegan diet start with cashews. Same goes for the coffee creamer. You need cashew nuts soaked in water for at least 4 hours. I leave mine overnight and make the creamer in the morning. Drain and rinse the cashews and place them in a blender. Add 1/2 cup of water, brown sugar ( or sweetener of choice ) and pure vanilla OR almond extract. Blend until smooth and creamy. Add more water to reach the desired consistency. I like to use 2/3 cup in total. Store in a glass bottle with lid for up to 1 week, in your fridge. Enjoy with coffee or tea and make a homemade latter right in your kitchen!

Does this creamer separate overnight? Also I see that there are five servings in the recipe — about how many tablespoons is in one serving?
GK says
I am in search of a non dairy homemade coffee creamer. I’ve tried other recipes but I felt ill after drinking the creamer and now I think I know why….too many cashews in other recipes.
I can’t wait to try your recipe and see if less cashews will do the trick!
thanks for sharing 😉
