A simple vegan whipped cream made with coconut. Great for topping on desserts and cupcakes. Makes approximately 1 - 1 ½ cups of whipped cream
Ingredients
- 1 can of full fat coconut milk, buy chilled
- or 400ml of homemade coconut milk, chilled
- 3 tbsp maple syrup
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- After full-fat coconut milk is chilled, the fat (the cream) will float to the top of the can. Simply scoop the cream out of the can and leave the watery milk in the can and save it for adding to curry or another recipe.
- To whip the cream, simply use an electric whisk or mixer to whip the coconut cream. Start by whisking it for a few minutes until thickened and then add the maple syrup and vanilla extract, whisk again until well combined. You should be left with a thick and creamy, but light whipped cream!
- Regrigerate in a bowl, covered with cling film for up to 3 days or use immediately.
- For a professional result, spoon the whipped cream into an icing bag fitted with a large star-shaped nozzle and pipe a swirl shape for a classic finish.
