Cream Cheese Crème Fraîche Recipe

You can use crème fraîche in both savory and sweet dishes. It will keep in the refrigerator for seven to ten days.

Makes about 1 3/4 cups 

Ingredients

• 2 ounces (1/4 cup) vegan cream cheese, softened
• 4 ounces soft tofu
• 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
• 1/4 tsp. ground cinnamon (optional)
• 1 cup canola oil
• 1 tsp. white wine vinegar
• 
  

Directions

In a blender, combine the cream cheese, tofu, vanilla, and cinnamon. With the machine running, slowly pour in the oil so it emulsifies and slightly thickens. Pour the mixture into a medium bowl, whisk in the vinegar, and continue whisking until the crème has the consistency of heavy cream.
