Make Artichoke Dip Dairy Free for a Plant-Based Version
This dairy free artichoke dip is a fantastic take on the classic without all the dairy. I’m all about making recipes plant-based and dairy free when I can. Dairy-free cooking does NOT have to be bland, boring, or flavorless… It’s quite the opposite when done right. You can achieve total richness and creaminess with some simple swaps.
By building meals around vegan pantry staples and swapping in a few plant-based ingredients you can make better meals for you and your family. These easy and tasty recipes are fantastic meatless and dairy free meals for your table.
What’s In This Artichoke Dip Recipe?
Be sure to visit the recipe card below for full ingredient amounts and recipe instructions!
- Artichoke Hearts – I love stocking up on these giant jars of Mediterranean Artichoke Hearts. They add so much flavor to this dish.
- Vegan Mayonnaise: I like to use a egg & dairy free mayo to keep this recipe plant-based, but you can use whatever mayo that you would normally use in recipes. If you don’t normally like mayo, try my dairy free recipe... it’s creamy but still plant based.
- 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.
- Apple Cider Vinegar, which gives this dip a little extra tang which is really fantastic! I love using apple cider vinegar with the mother which has a great flavor. I think it gives a nice extra sweetness and depth.
- fresh garlic cloves
- fresh lemon juice
- Nutritional Yeast: not to be confused with bread baking yeast, nutritional yeast has a cheesy nutty umami flavor which is great in all kinds of dishes – I even sprinkle it on fresh popped pop corn and WOW! Also great in soups and sauces of all kinds.
- sea salt & black pepper

I omitted the canned artichokes, doubled down on the garlic, added a teaspoon of dijon mustard and didn´t put the dip in the oven but rather served it cold as a dip sauce with fresh cooked artichokes. Brilliant! My daughter is not particularly fond of artichokes but this dip is a game changer.
