Vegan Sour cream is an easy recipe that’s made with only 6 ingredients and in 5 minutes. It’s thick, creamy, tangy and perfect to use in any dish where sour cream is required.
I have tried to make this sour cream with healthy ingredients so as to make it low in calories and also low in carbohydrates too.
It is so perfect and versatile that goes well in any Mexican-inspired dish. It’s an excellent substitute for regular dairy sour cream and wonderfully works on baked potatoes.
Ingredients for Vegan Sour Cream

How to make this Vegan Sour Cream
- It’s a one step recipe. So, first and the only step is to combine all the ingredients in a food processor/blender and blend it until its smooth and creamy.
- Lastly, now, spoon it out in a glass jar to refrigerate and use when needed.
I love to make my own food. It gives me a lot of flexibility to use the ingredients that I want and the type of ingredients. Therefore, I end up using the freshest and the healthiest ones.
Expert tips:
- Most importantly, use a powerful blender or a food processor for this so that the sour cream becomes smooth and creamy.
- Another important thing is that I have used the twin pack of extra firm tofu. Therefore, it was easy to measure tofu, since I used the exact half of the twin pack. Rather, you may use the regular big pack of 15 ounce and subsequently divide it in two halves.
- For this recipe, there is no need to press tofu. Therefore, simply drain the excess water that comes with the package.
- I have used whole raw cashew nuts in this recipe but chopped unsalted cashew nuts also work here.
- I have used almond milk to keep it low in calories but feel free to use any dairy free milk.
