Ingredients

• 200 grams firm tofu
• 50 grams raw cashews
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 small garlic clove
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 2 tablespoons water

Directions

Step 1

Drain the tofu and wrap it in a clean kitchen towel. Press it gently to remove excess moisture.

Step 2

Place the raw cashews in a heatproof bowl. Boil a small pot of water and pour it over the cashews to soak them for 5 minutes to soften.

Step 3

Peel the garlic clove and chop it into smaller pieces for easy blending.

Step 4

In a food processor or high-speed blender, add the pressed tofu, soaked and drained cashews, honey, lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, salt, cinnamon, and water.

Step 5

Blend the mixture on high speed for 1–2 minutes or until it forms a smooth, creamy texture. Scrape down the sides as needed to ensure everything is well incorporated.

Step 6

Taste the spread and adjust the seasoning, adding more honey for sweetness, lemon juice for tanginess, or salt if desired.

Step 7

Transfer the Honey Nut Tofu Spread to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.

Step 8

Serve chilled or at room temperature with crackers, bread, or fresh vegetables.
