Vegan Mozzarella Cheese Recipe
Meltable Vegan Mozzarella Cheese
Prep Time
10 mins
 

Gooey, melty & mild, with just 5 ingredients!

Course: Side Dish
Keywords: Meltable Vegan Cheese, Vegan Cheese Recipe, Vegan Mozzarella
Servings: 400 grams
Ingredients
  • 2/3 cup cashews soaked for at least 3 hours prior
  • 1/2 tsp fine salt
  • 2 tsp nutritional yeast
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1.5 tbsp psyllium powder
  • 3/4+1/2 cups water
Instructions
  1. Line a bowl with a piece of baking paper big enough to cover the side of the bowl.

  2. Add the cashews, lemon juice, salt, nutritional yeast and 3/4 cup of the water to a blender or bullet and process until very smooth (1-4 minutes depending on blender).

  3. Add the remaining 1/2 cup of water, followed by the psyllium husks then blend immediately* until smooth. This should only take around 10 seconds.

  4. Scoop the thick cheese mixture into your prepared bowl then fold the excess paper down to press it into the bowl.

  5. Freeze for approximately 4 hours, then it's ready to grate (See Hot Tips above for grating)!

Recipe Notes

*Psyllium powder will start to thicken the moment it comes in contact with the water so it's important to do the second blend immediately after adding it!
