Vegan Raw Hollandaise Sauce

1 granny smith apple, cored if desired, and quartered
2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
1 tablespoon miso paste
a few pinches of chaat masala (optional)
1/2 cup of water

Add all ingredients to Blendtec and run on whole juice cycle once.

Yet another iteration on the savory apple-based sauce, I served this over some simple oven-roasted asparagus and really enjoyed the effect. Not sure if it really tastes like Hollandaise as I haven't had it in years, but I thought it paired well with the asparagus and had a rich, cheesy, slightly tangy flavor. This recipe probably made about 2 cups of sauce.
