Equipment
- 1 Blender or immersion blender
Ingredients
- 1 cup walnut pieces
- ¾ cup unsweetened nondairy milk (almond milk, soy milk, oat milk, or milk of choice)
- 3 Medjool dates or Deglet Noor dates, pitted
- 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
- ¾ teaspoon cinnamon
Instructions
- Combine: Add the walnut pieces, nondairy milk, dates, vanilla, and cinnamon to a clean blender.
- Blend until completely smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed.
- Adjust milk: Add more milk, one tablespoon at a time, or as needed, until the desired creaminess.
Notes
Milk: For a thicker cream, use slightly less milk. For a pourable sauce, add an extra splash of milk.
For serving: Delicious over berries, sliced apples, oatmeal, or baked pears. Or use as a healthy frosting for cake or muffins.
