Prep Time 5 minutes

Ingredients

  • 3/4 c filtered water
  • 1/4 c cashews
  • 1/4 c macadamias
  • 1 tbsp chia seeds
  • 2 tsp coconut nectar
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla powder
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon (optional)
  • Pinch sea salt

Instructions

  • Soak nuts for at least 2 hours.
  • Drain and rinse nuts, then blend with remaining ingredients in a high-speed blender for a few minutes until silky smooth, scraping down the sides in between if needed.
  • Chill at least 1hr before serving or preferably overnight – the cream will thicken in the fridge.
