from Sunflower Fig Oatmeal with Whipped Coconut Cream, the Week of June 3, 2012.
View the previous recipe for this meal.

This au natural vegan, dairy-free topping is beautifully fluffed up and perfect for replacing whipped cream. Use your preferred sweetener such as honey, maple syrup, agave, stevia or even organic sugar, just adjust to taste. While this takes just a few minutes to whip up, allowing the coconut milk to chill overnight or for at least 20 minutes is a key step.

Ingredients

  • 1 can coconut milk, do not shake the can
  • 1 tablespoon agave nectar, or honey, maple syrup, adjust to taste
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla

Preparation Instructions

Place the coconut milk in the fridge overnight or at least 20 minutes before you want to whip the cream. Also place the bowl and beaters you will be using in the fridge to chill and become cool.

Open the can and scoop off the cream topping. Reserve the liquid coconut milk for another use. Place the cream in the chilled bowl and beat with a wire whisk or electric beaters until thick and fluffed up with air. Add your preferred sweetener and the vanilla. Continue to beat into thicker fluffiness. Taste. Add more sweetener or vanilla as desired.

Chill until ready to use, although this is best served immediately.
