About the ingredient list
Raw Cashews: Plant-based cashew dips are some of the creamiest out there! Just be sure to let your raw cashews soak to soften.
Non-Dairy Milk: Feel free to use any plain unsweetened dairy free milk. I tend to use almond milk!
Tapioca Starch: You know that traditional stretchy spinach artichoke dip consistency? Tapioca starch is how we achieve that with this dip. If you don't have any, try using cornstarch or cassava flour instead.
Nutritional Yeast: Also lovingly referred to as nooch! This will give our bruschetta bites a slight cheesy and nutty flavor.
Easy Individual Appetizer
To make these spinach artichoke bruchettas, start by slicing a baguette into ½ inch slices. Then combine cashews, dairy-free milk, tapioca starch, nutritional yeast, lemon juice, olive oil, and salt to a blender. Blend until smooth then set aside.
In a large skillet, cook down onion and garlic, then season. Stir in blender mixture, toss in chopped artichoke hearts and baby spinach, then let everything come together.
Spread the spinach artichoke dip on top of the sliced baguettes. Broil for 3-4 minutes, until the edges are lightly browned and toppings are bubbly. Remove from oven and enjoy!
