Instructions
- Add your cashews to a glass bowl. Top with boiling water and let soak for 30 minutes.
- After you soak the cashews, drain and rinse with hot water.
- Combine all of the ingredients, except the starter cultures, in a blender and blend on high until smooth.

- Dispense the yogurt into jars and place the jars in a yogurt maker for 6-8 hours, then immediately refrigerate.

- OR you can dispense into jars, incubate at room temperature for 12 hours, then immediately refrigerate.
- Chill yogurt in the fridge for at least 4 hours to solidify.
- Top with some fresh fruit, and enjoy!
Notes
*For yogurt starter cultures you can use a starter culture packet OR sub for 3 Tablespoons already made vegan yogurt
*This yogurt should keep in the fridge for approximately 2 to 3 weeks.
