How To Make Vegan Parmesan Cheese

My go-to. I find it keeps forever in the fridge… or at least prettt long, given how frequently I use it. I’m WFPB. For pizza, I just do a crust plus tons of veggies – my 2 faves are spinach/roasted red pepper/ted onion and Marinsted artichoke hearts/sun dried tomatoes/sliced black olives — finish with a generous topping of this and OMG. (No need for fake cheeses with all their fat.)

Super quick and very good!!
I made it exactly as the recipe was written; can’t wait to try this on next pasta dish.

Truly, one of my favourite vegan recipes, I use and share it all the time, thank you!! 💖💖 I love watching the faces of skeptics taste this for the first time and are devastated by the umi bomb! … tbh, I replace half the sea salt with SMOKED sea salt, makes all the difference…

Love this recipe for vegan Parmesan. It is easy, tasty and simple! I also love putting this on popcorn! Thanks for always sharing the best recipes!

Delicious! You might just want to add a note to be careful not to overblend it because then it starts to clump together. Thanks!

Awesome parmesan vegan substitute. It goes well with risotto.

Wow this recipe is SO good. I seem to modify most recipes I make in some way – but this one I made exactly as is and I think it’s perfect. Thank you so much for the recipe!!! I’m going to put it on popcorn tonight!

I made this, but I find cashews make a sweet product. I use the more meaty walnut, and it comes out delicious. I will try hazelnuts next time. Also I roast them first for a smokier nutty flavor. Eat it with a spoon.

I have made this same basic recipe from other sources using almonds and Brazil nuts. By far, using raw cashews is my favorite.

I’m trying to go vegan and one of my favorite foods is popcorn with permesean cheese, and nutritional yeast, now I’ll only have to add a tad bit of nutritional yeast, thanks to you! 😁

Tasty! Doesn’t taste like parmesan, of course, but it’s got that savory, fatty, salty goodness (that actually sounds non-delicious, but I’m not the food writer :-) ). Very easy and a great topping for Italian-y meals with vegans. Thank you!

This is very good and my teen dairy free son loves it. Thank you! How many weeks would you say it can keep and how would I know if it spoiled?

I made this recipe, however I didn’t have garlic powder and I used a clove of garlic instead. I do like the flavor, but I think I could’ve used a little less of the garlic (perhaps half of a clove?) and it would have been better. I will try again next time and see how it tastes. I am going to be adding this to my homemade pizza tomorrow!

I’ve been searching for a great vegan Parmesan for years. I’m happy to report that my search is over. So simple, everday ingredients and the cherry on the top is the great taste. Thanks for all your fabulous recipes and ideas

I never thought it was possible, but this vegan Parmesan Cheese tastes absolutely awesome! It has completely changed my perspective, and I doubt I’ll ever go back to ordinary Parmesan again. Moreover, the ingredients used are simple and basic, making it easy to have them on hand in your pantry if you follow a vegan lifestyle.

Amazing taste! why didn’t I make this so much sooner?
Very tasteful and so easy to make.

Thank you so much for this recipe.

This is an excellent recipe! I’ve used it on so many things. And it seems to keep really well in the fridge.
Thanks for sharing!

Wow!! I add some hemp hearts for nutrition & it’s FABULOUS. Thank you for this Vegan Parmigiana 💙💙

SO GOOD!

Love this. Just made it for the first time and it’s super easy and quick. I’ll definitely make this again. New to vegan, so happy to find options like these.

This is nicely “cheesy” and a great texture. I would have preferred less salt though, so next time I make it, I’ll start with about half a teaspoon.

I’ve used this recipe many times and it is fantastic, I love it on pretty much everything. Thank you for your help brilliant recipes.

I wasn’t expecting this to be so amazing but it is and soooo easy!

I’ve tried several versions of vegan parmesan cheese and this one is by far the best I’ve had and stores for weeks in the fridge!!! Thank you!!!

Absolutely delicious. This tastes so good I could cry. I’m new on this vegan journey and thought I was stuck eating the disgusting processed vegan Parmesan that doesn’t really taste like real Parmesan. Thank you!!!

This was really good! I added a fresh garlic clove onin addition to the garlic powder. Will definitely keep this on hand.

I did and I love it, so easy to make and SO DEELISH! I used it on our pasta and our salad. As always Dana, your recipes are AMAZING and so easy to prepare.
Thanks!

Love this recipe to cut down on dairy in my diet. I find it keeps a long, long time in the fridge. Great sprinkled over veggies, on all pasta, eggs, etc. And it’s adding healthy fats and vitamins!

Absolutely the most delicious parmesan I have ever tasted. I omitted the garlic, and it is still excellent

I am in love with this, could eat it by the spoonful, thank you!!

This turned out awesome. Definitely a 5 star recipe!!!

This turned out so delicious! Thank you for sharing!!!

This is good stuff. Great , useful recipe. Worth the 5 min effort to make. Try it. You’ll be hooked.
Divine on avo toast.

I’ve made this several times and people always love it! For my latest batch, I didn’t have cashews on hand but I had whole roasted almonds. The almonds worked great! Still delicious! Such a great garnish for salads, pasta, and soups.

This is a great recipe, I’ve made it many times for the spaghetti squash lasagna recipe as well as for other recipes. I’ve tried toasted and raw cashews. Both work but the result is better with raw for a baked dish. It’s pretty awesome that when I smell this toasting on top of the lasagna recipe I know when it’s done so I don’t need a timer.
