Avocado Crema

5 / 5 (1 reviews)

Avocado crema is a thick, smooth avocado sauce made with sour cream, lime juice, garlic, and cilantro. It’s blended until silky and spoonable, making it perfect for tacos, burrito bowls, grilled chicken, and roasted vegetables. This recipe is tangy and cream, just like a restaurant, and only takes 5 minutes in the blender.

Chef's Notes

Texture Tip: Blend until thick and completely smooth. The crema should hold its shape on a spoon and spread easily without running.
Too Thick: Add 1 tablespoon water and blend again.
Too Thin: Blend in more avocado or 1 tablespoon sour cream.
Storage: Best within 2 days. Press plastic wrap directly onto the surface before sealing to reduce browning.
Greek Yogurt Option: Substitute plain Greek yogurt for sour cream for added protein.
Dairy-free option: swap the sour cream for a dairy-free sour cream or Greek yogurt.

Diane ★ 5.0/5

This creama could be eaten on almost anything. It's simple to make and delicious. I left out the honey, didn't see a reason to sweeten the avocado. I was lucky and found 3 perfectly ripe avocados. It was especially good on the tacos I made with roasted sweet potatoes and refried black beans and like dressed cabbage slaw.
