Dairy-free Caramelized French Onion Dip
Rich and creamy caramalized french onion dip made with cashews instead of dairy
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp butter I used dairy-free
- 3 medium yellow onions very thinly sliced
- 2 tsp salt
- 2 tsp coconut sugar or regular
- 1/4 cup broth or wine
Cashew Base
- 2 1/2 cups soaked cashews soaked overnight
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp Worcestershire sauce optional
- 1/4-1/2 cup water
- 1/3-1/2 cup chives finely diced
- parsley
- garlic chips
Instructions
- Peel and slice onions very thinly
- Melt butter in a medium saucepan or dutch oven. Add onions, salt, and coconut sugar. Mix well. Sauté 10-15 minutes over medium heat, stir frequently. Stir in splash of wine or broth to deglaze pan. Let sizzle out. Repeat. After about 30 minutes onions should be done.
- In a large high powered blender, blend cashews, lemon juice, apple cider vinegar, salt, optional Worcestershire sauce and water. Start with 1/4 cup of water and add up to 1/2 cup (total) if needed. Less water with result in thicker consistency but add more if your blender needs it to blend smoothly.
- Pour into a bowl. Mix in most of the cooled onions. Top with parsley, chives, garlic chips and reserved onions. Chill 1-2 hours for thicker texture and more flavor. Enjoy!
