Ingredients
Just cashew pieces and nothing else.
Recipe
Soaked and blended cashews make the most amazing cream filling for pies or flans, and it's suitable for vegans and those avoiding dairy foods. Here is a recipe for the cashews blended with banana and citrus fruits, but you can blend it with so many other things too.
Citrus, banana, cashew cream filling
makes enough for a 10 inch deep pie crust, maybe more.
120g cashews, soaked 6-8 hours
2 bananas, peeled and broken into chunks
8 dates, pitted*
1 whole orange, zest and juice
Half a lemon, zest and juice (start with 1/2)
Half a lime, zest and juice (start with 1/2)
2 teaspoons vanilla, or vanilla pod
water, as needed
Place soaked and drained cashews in a food processor or blender and process into a paste. Add remaining ingredients (except water), and blend thoroughly, scraping down the sides as needed, until as creamy and smooth as possible. Add water as needed to adjust thickness (how much juice you get out of your fruits will affect this too). This may take 5 minutes depending on the strength of the processor/blender. Taste and add more zest if desired. Use as a pudding or pie/tart filling with fresh fruit. Serve chilled.
*the dates do darken the cream up a bit, so you can use agave to taste if you prefer, or leave it out if you just want to bring out the banana taste.
Thanks Swell Vegan for the recipe.Vegetarian

Delicious, healthy snack straight from the packet, or great in cooking, such as vegetable curries, stir fries or nut roasts. Also make a lovely topping for crumbles when crushed and combined with xylitol/sugar and flour.
