Low-FODMAP Vanilla Bean Coconut Whipped Cream; Gluten-free, Vegan
November 10, 2017
Low-FODMAP Vanilla Bean Coconut Whipped Cream is the ideal topping for almost any dessert. Personally, I like it better than traditional whipping cream. Plus, it is vegan and has a wonderful (very subtle) hint of coconut.
I’m certain you will also love this low-FODMAP Vanilla Bean Coconut Whipped Cream. This recipe uses canned coconut cream, which can either be ‘skimmed’ off the top of a can of full-fat coconut milk, or (more recently) purchased in smaller cans of coconut cream.
Just be aware, not all canned coconut milk or creams are exactly alike. Some will be more white in color, and some (of the milk variety) will have a less thick creamy layer. If you buy the actual ‘coconut cream’, you will still have to drain a bit of liquid from the bottom as well. Most importantly, make sure to chill your cans in the refrigerator the night before…otherwise it may not whip. I had a few failures with my low-FODMAP Coconut Whipped Cream before I realized why!
