Dairy- Free Whipped Cream
/Want a better alternative to the usual heavy whipped cream? This coconut whipped cream is the alternative for you!
There are many dairy- free whipped cream alternatives in grocery stores and I’ve tried many of them. However this homemade coconut whipped cream is the best tasting with it’s smooth and thick consistency. My favorite thing about this recipe is being able to control the sweetness/ sugar contents.
We use this dairy- free whipped cream on top of our oatmeal, acai bowls, fruits, cupcakes, pies, and etc.
