    Coconut Whipped Cream

    Have you ever heard of coconut whipped cream? It's a delicious whipped cream made from full-fat coconut milk. It has the same texture and consistency as traditional whipped cream but it's lighter and totally dairy-free and vegan-friendly.

    Step 1: find the right coconut milk

    When it comes to coconut whipped cream it's crucial to find the right coconut milk. We want to use a milk that's full fat, smooth and creamy.

    Step 2: Chill the can/carton overnight

    If you want your whipped cream to be fluffy and light you need to chill the coconut milk in the fridge overnight. The same applies to the bowl you're going to whip the cream in, chill it in the freezer for 15-20 minutes before you start making your whipped cream.

    Step 3 (optional): use a whipped cream stabilizer

    If you want to be 100% sure to get a perfectly fluffy whipped cream add a whipped cream stabilizer to your coconut milk before you start whipping it.

    Step 4: whip it with a hand mixer

    Whip it until stiff peaks form (5-10 minutes).

    Step 5 (optional): place in the fridge

    If you want your whipped cream to be extra firm place it in the fridge for 1-2 hours before serving it.

    Step 5: Buon appetito!

    Use it as a topping for cakes, chocolate mousse, pudding, fruits etc.

        Hola Catalina, yo que tú no utilizaría agar agar porque tendrías que cocer la leche. Con xanthan puede que funcione aunque nunca lo he intentado. Dejame saber come te ha quedado 🙂
