Jen's Gone Paleo: Coconut Milk Coffee Creamer
Coconut Milk Coffee Creamer (makes 6-8 servings)
1 Can Full-Fat Coconut Milk
3-4 Medjol Dates (pit removed)
1 Vanilla Bean*, scraped (you're using the seeds from inside the pod)
*Use 1T. Vanilla Extract (free of sugar, glycerin, or other junk), if you're using alcohol
Optional Add-Ins:
-Cinnamon
-Pumkin Pie Spice
-Orange Zest
-Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
- Add the dates, vanilla bean seeds/scrapings plus 1T. hot water to a blender and puree until smooth(ish).
- Add 1/4 of the can of coconut milk and blend until smooth (it's near impossible to create a completely smooth puree, so just be ok with the speckles of date).
- Add the remaining 3/4 can of coconut milk and blend.
- Transfer mixture to a container and transfer to the fridge until ready to use.
