This east chia coconut pouring cream is a healthy vegan substitute for traditional dairy cream. This quick, gluten-free recipe is delicious served over Cinnamon Apple Crumble, Broiled Bananas, or used in a Chia Pudding Parfait.
Ingredients
- 3 cups (24 ounces) low-fat Califia Farms Almond Coconut Milk blend (or other plant-based milk)
- 1/2 cup (96 grams) chia seeds
- 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
How It’s Done
To make the Easy Vegan Coconut Chia “Cream”: Combine everything and stir well. Let sit for at least 10 minutes. It will thicken and become a pourable “cream”. Serve over warm baked fruit or refrigerate for up to 10 days.
Yields: About 4 cups
Chef Katie’s Tips:
Other Non-Dairy Milk: Use your favorite drinking non-dairy milk.
More Sweetness: If you want added sweetness, you can add date water (left from soaking dates in warm water), maple syrup, Stevia, or your preferred sweetener.
Play with Spices: Cinnamon is an easy go-to spice, but experiment with other sweet spices. Cardamom, nutmeg, ginger and even a Pumpkin Pie spice mix would all taste great!
