Creamy Strawberry Cashew Yogurt

Thick, tangy cashew yogurt blended with fresh strawberries and a hint of vanilla—simple fermented goodness for make-ahead breakfasts and snacks.

Preparation:  20 mins
Servings:  6

Instructions

Step 1: Quick-soak the cashews

Place cashews in a heatproof bowl and cover with freshly boiled water. Let soak for 1 hour, then drain and rinse well.

Step 2: Blend the base

Add soaked cashews to a blender with lemon juice, sea salt and water. Blend on high until completely smooth and silky.

Step 3: Inoculate with probiotics

Transfer the cashew mixture to a clean glass bowl. Open the probiotic capsules and sprinkle the contents over the mixture. Stir gently with a silicone spatula or wooden spoon (avoid metal).

Step 4: Ferment the yogurt

Cover the bowl with cheesecloth or a clean tea towel secured with a rubber band. Set in a cool, dark spot for at least 12 hours and up to 24 hours, until slightly tangy and thick.

Step 5: Blend in strawberries

Scoop the cultured cashew yogurt back into the blender. Add strawberries, vanilla extract and maple syrup. Blend until smooth and creamy.

Step 6: Chill and serve

Taste and adjust sweetness if needed. Spoon into jars, cover and refrigerate until cold. Serve with fruit, granola or nuts.
