    Ingredients

    • 2 tablespoon olive oil divided
    • ½ cup onion chopped
    • 4 cloves garlic finely minced
    • ½ cup chopped fresh basil preferably organic
    • 1 tablespoon gluten-free brown rice flour
    • 2 cups unsweetened almond milk plus more to thin sauce if needed
    • ½ cup raw cashews
    • ½ teaspoon sea salt more to taste
    • 1 lb. gluten-free spaghetti noodles cooked according to pkg directions

    Instructions

    • In a small saucepan over medium-high heat, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil, adding the onion and garlic once hot. Stirring often, cook until the onion is soft and fragrant, about 5 minutes.
    • Add fresh basil and cook until it is wilted and bright green, about 2 minutes more. Transfer to a small bowl and set aside.
    • In the same saucepan, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Whisk in the flour using a wire wisk and cook for a little less than 1 minute, or until the flour smells slightly toasted but is not burned.
    • Gradually add almond milk, stirring constantly, until the mixture is thickened. Add basil mixture to the pan, stirring until well combined. Remove from heat and set aside.
    • In a blender (or food processor), process the raw cashews until they are like fine, powdery crumbs.
    • Add the basil mixture and sea salt and process until creamy. Return to the saucepan and heat until desired temperature and consistency, adding more almond milk or sea salt to taste.
    • Add cooked pasta to the sauce, tossing to coat the noodles. Serve immediately.
