Why make homemade coffee creamer with coconut milk?
Not only does coconut milk creamer add a touch of nutty flavor, but it is a way to create a diary free coffee creamer. This Vegan Coffee Creamer is thick and indulgent thanks to coconut milk. The cinnamon and vanilla add natural flavor that will perk up your cup of coffee.
How To Make Homemade Creamer?
Step 1: Chooseyour base, in this case it is coconut milk. But you can use almond milk, oat milk, cream or milk.
Step 2: Add the flavors and sweetness. This recipe uses maple syrup to sweeten which is why it is Paleo and Vegan. But you can also use honey oromit the maple syrup to create a Whole 30 friendly coffee creamer.
Step 3: Heat ingredients on the stovetop until they begin to steam. Then let cool, transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate. Depending on the consistency of your coconut milk it may thicken in the refrigerator. I store my creamer in a lidded glass jar so I can shake it up before use if necessary.

How many ounces of coconut milk do you use? 2 typical cans would be 28 ounces and that just seems like a lot

I use 2 cans, approximately 13 ounces each. You can always make a half batch 🙂

I store mine for about a week. Just be warned that the full fat coconut milk with solidify a bit in the fridge. I either take it out 10 minutes before I need it or run the jar under warm water to melt it a little. Then just shake 🙂
Some common options include plant-based milk such as almond, soy, oat, coconut, or hemp milk. There are also commercially available non-dairy creamers made from these plant-based alternatives that vegans often use to add creaminess to their coffee.
In fact, it's so great that there's an entire cheat sheet devoted to working with it. You can also get a different product called coconut cream that's even thicker and richer than ordinary coconut milk. This is perfect for coffee, soups, or Paleo “whipped cream” without dairy.
Oat milk: A calming, oaty flavour with its smooth and creamy texture makes it a fan favourite. Almond milk: A watery, almond flavour; a light and slightly creamy texture with hints of vanilla coming through. Soy milk: A high-protein dairy milk alternative to dairy milk with a mild taste.
What Do Vegans Use Instead of Heavy Cream? Fortunately, nearly any plant-based milk can be made into a heavy cream substitute. Nut milks, including hemp milk, oat milk, coconut milk and soy milk can all be used as the base for a heavy cream substitute with the addition of the right fats.
This creamer's main ingredients are water, coconut cream and almonds. I love that Nutpods has flavored varieties, such as Caramel, French Vanilla and Cinnamon Swirl, that contain no sweeteners whatsoever. Each tablespoon has no saturated fat and only 10 calories.
Oat milk is higher in most nutrients, including calories, carbs, fat, and fiber. However, almond milk is lower in carbs and calories, making it a better choice if you're looking to lose weight.
Of course, the type of plant-based creamer can be derived from any plant of choice: almond, macadamia, coconut, soy, oat or even pea. These will also affect consistency, texture and overall flavor, but for this week's taste test, we're sticking strictly to the latter.
The humble store's own-brand non-dairy coconut creamer is just slightly sweet, which makes it perfect for those who really enjoy the taste of coffee but need a little creaminess to mellow out the acidity. It also stirs in well, with no risk of curdling.
“Other alternatives include almond milk creamer, coconut milk, and coconut creamer, which are not usually fortified and not as nutritionally rich.” If you like sweeteners or sugar in your coffee, go for honey, coconut sugar, maple syrup, or stevia. A sprinkle of cinnamon in your coffee tastes great, too!
You're in luck, because numerous Paleo sweetener options work super well in coffee. Coconut sugar, raw honey, maple syrup, and date sugar all make perfect 1-for-1 substitutes for your usual refined sugar.
Product 1 is a dairy-free coffee creamer made from almond milk and coconut cream. It's unsweetened and contains no artificial flavors or colors, making it a safe choice for those on a low FODMAP diet. This creamer has a smooth and creamy texture, perfect for adding to your favorite cup of joe.
