I've been meaning to come up with a great recipe for vegan egg nog for years now, and I finally got down to it this morning. I already knew the basic ingredients I wanted to use, and as I'd hoped, they came together beautifully. This is very sweet, not unlike traditional egg nog, which also made my recipe co-tester (my 8-year-old daughter) very happy! Enjoy.
1/4 cup raw cashews
1 large banana, very ripe (I use frozen banana)
2 cups almond milk (plain and unsweetened)
1/4 cup maple syrup
1 tablespoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg (plus more for garnish)
1/8 teaspoon EACH: sea salt and cinnamon
In a good blender, combine the cashews, banana, and just enough of the milk to blend. Process until creamy and then add the remaining ingredients. Blend until completely smooth and emulsified. Serve with a little extra nutmeg sprinkled on top. Happy holidays! : )
Makes 6-8 servings
