I dare you not to love this recipe. It’s better than the dairy version, and ready in 5 minutes!
When I was a child, my mom used to make Julia Child’s hollandaise sauce and pour it over just about anything – and I’d eat it, vegetable or not, just for the sauce.
So I decided to create a healthy, raw vegan hollandaise sauce. Yeah!
Best of all, I think even Julia would approve. So let’s see if you do.
Vegan hollandaise sauce recipe
Makes 1 1/2 cups/360ml of hollandaise.
You will need:
A blender or hand blender
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup/70g cashews, soaked and then drained (soak overnight for creamiest texture)
- 2 tablespoons avocado oil or flax oil (I prefer avocado oil for the taste)
- 12 tablespoons of water
- 4 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon cider vinegar
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 teaspoon mustard powder
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon xylitol, coconut palm sugar or other liquid sweetener
- Pinch of cayenne pepper
How you do it
OK this is really hard. Are you ready?
Blend all the ingredients and pour into a bowl.
Ha! You’re done!
Rocking Raw Chef tips
- Vegan hollandaise sauce will keep in the refrigerator in a glass jar for about three to four days.
- For a ‘green’ hollandaise (why not, right?), pop in some cucumber peels.
- For a purple hollandaise, pop in a small piece of beetroot. Easy!
- Your vegan hollandaise sauce will be delicious poured over just about anything, but if you’d like suggestions, try having it with nut burgers, over mixed veggies, over cauliflower ‘rice’, as a dipping sauce for carrot sticks or sprouted crackers…basically with anything you can eat!
