Gluten Free Dairy Free Egg Nog


Do you know that eggnog can be raw, paleo, sugar free and vegan...AND TASTE GOOD!


 This gluten free and dairy free egg nog recipe is free from gluten and dairy products and filled with a delicious blend of vanilla, almond milk and cashews. A twist of cloves and nutmeg greatly enhances this healthy eggnog’s flavors.

 Preparation Time: 10 Minutes 
 Cooking Time: 2 Minutes 
 Serves: 2 Cups 

Ingredients


• Raw cashews: ½ cup
• Unsweetened almond milk: 1 ½ cups (You can take any other nut based milk if required}
• Medjool dates, washed and pitted: 5-6
• Pure vanilla extract: 1 tsp
• Nutmeg: ¼ tsp (With some additional quantity for sprinkling)
• Cloves: ⅛ tsp
• Salt: ⅛ tsp

 Directions :


1. Take a glass bowl and pour into it hot water. Soak raw cashews in hot water for 10 minutes. Strain cashews and set aside. You can pre-soak raw cashews before starting this recipe.
2. If dates are hard, you can make them soft in the same way you soften cashews.
3. Now put all ingredients in a blender and blend them well to get a smooth and consistent mixture.
4. Pour eggnog into serving glasses or mugs and sprinkle some nutmeg over it.
5. You can make a chilled version of this gluten free and dairy free eggnog by adding ice cubes in the blender in step 3.
6. It is 100% healthy and nutritious.

  1. Can I make this recipe using something other than cashews? I have a peanut allergy, and as such, cannot eat any legums. Thanks!
