What’s In This Egg Free Mayo with Cashews Recipe?
See the recipe card below for full ingredient amounts and recipe instructions!
- Cashews: I love raw unsalted cashews in this recipe – there’s no need to get roasted nuts, as the raw cashews make the perfect creamy addition to this recipe.
- Whole Grain Mustard – for a really nice flavor and texture. Using a really good mustard makes all the difference, so don’t use the basic yellow stuff for this recipe.
- Garlic or Garlic Powder: Also a major pantry staple ingredient that gets used in our house daily! I love this garlic powder and add it to a lot of recipes that I would use fresh garlic in too.
- Fresh Lemon Juice
- Sea salt and black pepper
- Water
Blending Sauces
For this cashew cream mayo recipe you can use either a blender or a food processor. I used a blender, which I found gave the sauce a wonderfully creamy texture!
I recommend using a good-quality high speed blender for this recipe. I have a fantastic Vitamix blender, which I have been using for years, and it gets daily use in our home.
Choose a blender that has a lot of power, and can pulverize even the toughest of ingredients. My blender can chop ice, dates, frozen fruits, make soups, and even blend nuts into homemade nut butter. Using a good high-speed blender will make perfectly creamy smoothies and sauces every time!
