Oh yes, my dearest when you eat clean you can whip clean too with this is clean eating whipped cream recipe. It tastes so lovely and can be made with only 1 or 2 ingredients, making it a clean eating dream come true.
Loads of you lovely readers keep asking me how to enjoy whipped cream while trying to eat clean and healthy. Easy! All you need is a tin of full-fat coconut milk. Get a good one though, nothing added if possible by which I mean no sugars, oils, e numbers or ingredients you struggle to pronounce. I personally like Biona or Coconut Merchant tinned milk.
Ok back to this clean eating whipped cream recipe. Once you have the tin of coconut milk, place it in your fridge and leave it there for a minimum of 24 hours. This simple trick uses the cold air in the fridge to make the coconut milk harden. Once the 24 hours is up, open the tin, gently scoop out the hardened coconut and pop it into your blender or food processor (a blender works much better).
If you want it sweeter, add a touch of maple syrup, but no more than a tablespoon, as coconut is naturally very sweet anyway.
All that is left is to do is to whizz it all up until smooth, scrape the cream into a bowl, let it set in the fridge for an hour or so and then devour on its own or with strawberries. I like to add a sprinkle of cinnamon.
Here's the clean eating whipped cream recipe

Hi! I'm making some of this tonight!
Thank you so so much by the way!
Just wondering...
Should I put it in an airtight container in the fridge if I don't use it all at once?
& if so, how long it will keep?
Hedi Hearts
