Ingredients

• 1 cup raw almonds
• 1 cup water
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
• 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
• 2 large garlic cloves
• 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 1/2 teaspoon sea salt

Directions

Step 1

Start by measuring one cup of raw almonds. Place them in a bowl and cover them with water, letting them soak for at least 4 hours or overnight. This will help them soften and make them easier to blend.

Step 2

After soaking, drain and rinse the almonds thoroughly.

Step 3

In a high-speed blender, add the soaked almonds, fresh water, olive oil, lemon juice, nutritional yeast, apple cider vinegar, and garlic cloves.

Step 4

Add the spices: cayenne pepper, ground cumin, smoked paprika, and sea salt to the blender.

Step 5

Blend the mixture on high until it becomes smooth and creamy, stopping occasionally to scrape down the sides of the blender as needed. This should take about 2-3 minutes.

Step 6

Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning as needed by adding more salt or lemon juice to taste.

Step 7

Transfer the sauce into a bowl or airtight container. The sauce can be served immediately or stored in the refrigerator for up to a week.

Step 8

Enjoy this Paleo Bitchin' Sauce as a dip for veggies, a spread on wraps, or a topping for your favorite protein.
