Ingredients
  1. 1 cup cashews
  2. 1 cup water
  3. ¾ cup pumpkin purée (can substitute sweet potato or butternut squash purée)
  4. 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  5. 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  6. 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  7. ½ teaspoon dried ginger
  8. ½ teaspoon salt
  9. ⅛ teaspoon ground cloves
Instructions
  1. Soak the cashews in the water for 4 to 24 hours in the refrigerator. Note: If you have a highspeed blender you can soak them more briefly, but if you have a normal blender, soak overnight for best results.
  2. Drain the soaked cashews into a measuring cup and combine them in the blender with the pumpkin, maple syrup, lemon juice, cinnamon, ginger, salt, and cloves.
  3. Blend until smooth. You will have to stop and scrape down the sides. It helps if you use a slow speed first to begin to break up the cashews before moving up to the more intense speeds. If you have a blender that’s not very powerful and you need more liquid, add a tablespoon or two of the soaking water. Store in the refrigerator.
  4. *TIP: Make a savory variation by trading mashed avocado for the pumpkin purée and using your favorite savory herbs. Increase the lemon juice to 1½ tablespoons to keep it from browning.
Notes
  1. Makes 2 cups.
