Fig Bruschetta

Check out this elegant appetizer for your next get together or holiday party. Made with a savory cashew butter instead of the traditional cheese, fresh figs, balsamic and herbs. Simple yet delicious!

INGREDIENTS

For bruschetta

• 1 crispy baguette, cit into ½ inch slices
• 8 fresh figs, cut into small wedges
• Fresh sprigs of rosemary or thyme
• 1 cup savory cashew butter
• Thick Balsamic vinegar to drizzle

For savory cashew butter

• 2 cups raw cashews (soaked overnight- optional)*
• 2 tbsp. nutritional yeast
• 1 tsp. roasted garlic (optional)
• 1/2 tbsp. fine sea salt (or to taste)
• 1/2 tsp freshly cracked black pepper (or to taste)

INSTRUCTIONS

• Prepare savory cashew butter
• Rinse and drain your soaked cashews. (*Soaking is optional. There is no need to soak cashews, the NutraMilk will break down these perfectly fine, but soaking results in a milder taste). Process cashews in the NutraMilk with nutritional yeast, garlic and salt and pepper until smooth.

• Assemble bruschetta
• Spread a generous amount of savory cashew butter on each slice of bread. Place a few fig wedges on top. Drizzle balsamic vinegar and top with herb of choice. Enjoy!
