Cashews are one of the most versatile ingredients in the plantbased kitchen. You can use them in everything from ice cream and raw cheesecake to creamy curries and vegan cheese.

Cashew cream cheese is one of my absolute favorites, and can be made both sweet and savory. I personally prefer the savory types, and the cheese is even more delicious when it’s slightly warm from the oven…yum!

These crostinis are a perfect treat to serve at a party, but I also like to make the cheese on the weekend to use as a spread on toast during the weekdays when I have less time to cook.

Enjoy!
