Ingredients

• 14 oz (drained weight) Canned artichoke hearts
• 1 cup Raw cashews
• 3 tablespoons Nutritional yeast
• 3 tablespoons Unsweetened almond milk
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 2 cloves Garlic cloves
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 0.5 medium (finely chopped) Yellow onion
• 0.25 cup Vegan mayonnaise
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 1 tablespoon (chopped) Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
• 1 optional Baguette slices, crackers, or vegetable sticks (for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Place the raw cashews in a bowl, cover them with boiling water, and let them soak for 10 minutes. Then drain and set aside.

Step 3

In a food processor, combine the soaked cashews, nutritional yeast, almond milk, lemon juice, garlic cloves, and 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Blend until smooth and creamy. Scrape down the sides as needed. This will serve as the creamy base of the dip.

Step 4

Roughly chop the canned artichoke hearts into small pieces and set them aside.

Step 5

Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and sauté for 3–4 minutes, until softened and translucent.

Step 6

In a large mixing bowl, combine the cashew cream, sautéed onions, chopped artichoke hearts, vegan mayonnaise, salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika. Mix until well combined.

Step 7

Transfer the mixture to a small oven-safe baking dish and spread it evenly.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 18–20 minutes, until the dip is hot and slightly golden on top.

Step 9

Remove from the oven, garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired, and serve warm with baguette slices, crackers, or vegetable sticks.
