No cashews? No time? No problem!
Nearly every sour cream alternative recipe calls for cashews to be soaked and blended, but not everyone has time for that! This yogurt based vegan sour cream does tend to be a little more runny than its cashew counterparts, so try to find a thicker yogurt if possible. If not, oh well!
Hard to get much easier than that, ha. Sometimes I make it as a last minute decision when i realize something would be plated more attractively with a white drizzle.
Gather all the ingredients together.
Substitutions?
I do not have white pepper! Can I substitute it with black? Do not substitute the white pepper! If you don't have any, no problem! Just leave it out. The sour cream will be missing a little depth of flavor, but is otherwise still worthy for all intents and purposes.
What kind of yogurt can I use? I generally use soy yogurt for this recipe because that is what I usually have on-hand, but ultimately as long as it is plain, unsweetened, and a substitute you love then it should work fine!
After measuring all your ingredients together give them a mix and your sour cream alternative is ready!
