Combine the drained cashews, nutritional yeast, lemon juice, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and water in a food processor. Process for 2–3 minutes, scraping down the sides as needed, until the mixture is smooth and thick enough to hold its shape when spooned — it should resemble a soft cream cheese.
