This is a great dessert topper, or a side for many breakfast dishes such as crepes, waffles or pancakes. I like to serve mine on my Sourdough Pancakes. Don't let the appearance throw you off. It's not entirely white because it's sweetened with Powdered Coconut Sugar and flavoured with cinnamon, making it slightly more off-white than typical whipped cream, but trust me, it's even more delicious! If you've never used Powdered Coconut Sugar before, click on the highlighted words for a link to how I make it.
Here's how it's done...
Scoop the coconut cream off the top of one can of full fat coconut milk (which should typically yield approximately 3/4 cup - 1 cup of coconut cream. I buy Thai Kitchen brand). Measure out your cinnamon and Powdered Coconut Sugar as well.
Place the coconut cream in a mixing bowl and mix with a hand mixer. You may find it mixes nice and creamy right from the get-go, but if it's been sitting in the fridge for a while (like mine was in the above photo) you may end up with something kind of lumpy, in which case you'll want to add about one tablespoon of plant based milk to cream it up a bit.
Next add in the Powdered Coconut Sugar & cinnamon and mix again.
Voila! It's done! Easy peasy.
Now go put it on something delicious and savour every bite. I'll be here, so happy for you, and waiting for you to tell me how delicious it was!
Enjoy!
