Dr. Jill { 29 comments }

If you are following a dairy-free diet it can be challenging to find something creamy to use as filling or icing. Fear not! This coconut whipped cream recipe will solve that problem for sure. It may be used as a filling or as an icing. It comes out light, creamy and as smooth as diary cream.

Coconut Whipped Cream Filling

Ingredients

One or two cans of organic coconut milk (where to buy)
Put the cans of full fat coconut milk in the refrigerator to separate, and then collect the cream from the top
2 tablespoon raw honey (where to buy raw honey)
1 teaspoon vanilla
Note that the vanilla and honey amounts are based on approximately 1 cup of cream

Equipment

Electric hand beater (where to buy)
Bowl

Instructions

Put whipping utensils and bowl in the refrigerator to chill for 20 minutes
Open the cans and take the hard cream off the top, keeping the liquid for shakes
Add the cream to the bowl
Add the vanilla and honey
With hand mixer whip the cream for a few minutes
Refrigerate for 30 minutes to one hour to thicken

This looks great! If I decide to use the separated coconut milk, any suggestions for what to do with what remains after using the cream in the recipe?

Sorry I’m not farmiliar with the coconut products-yet-so this may be a dumb question:

Does the end result have the taste/flavor of coconut or is it more neutral like whipped cream from cows fat?

  I tried this recipe the other day, and it tasted EXACTLY like dairy whipped cream (at least from what I remember). I HIGHLY recommend this recipe!

Well, I am dairy free but this looks delicious anyway. I am about to place an order from that company for coconut flour and coconut oil, to try them out. You are making a believer out of me, though I am not quite ready for your 28 day challenge, which I didn’t read until last night…..so I am late anyway. I am going to really consider it and may start late. Great post for Tuesday’s Tasty Tidbits.

I made this for Thanksgiving and it was so great to have whipped cream on our pumpkin pie!
