Ingredients:
For the coconut whipped cream:
- 800 ml full-fat coconut milk
- 2,5 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon BAM vanilla paste
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest
- 1-2 tablespoons lemon juice (if desired, depending on the thickness of the cream)
Whipped coconut cream is a happy substitute for regular whipped cream. It is light, fluffy and dairy-free, making it perfect as a topping for cakes, pies, crumbles or any dessert that would benefit from a touch of whipped cream.
In most grocery stores you will find 3 canned coconut products: light coconut milk, full-fat coconut milk and coconut cream. Coconut and water are the primary ingredients in all three, but each has a different concentration of coconut. Canned coconut cream has the highest percentage of coconut, which means it also has the highest fat content and the thickest texture. Full-fat coconut milk comes second, and light coconut milk comes last. We used full-fat coconut milk.
The coconut cream can then be used as a cake icing, as a pie filling or to decorate your muffins. For extra flavour, BAM vanilla paste will do the trick .
