Ingredients
Basic Vegan Creamer Ingredients
- 1 cup soy milk or any plant-based milk
- 2 tablespoons vegan sugar or agave, maple syrup or any sweetener of choice
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract or any other flavored extract
- 1/2 teaspoon tapioca starch
For the full-fat version
- 1 tablespoon refined coconut oil or any neutral flavored oil
- 1/2 teaspoon lecithin
Instructions
- Measure out cold soy milk or another plant-based milk, extract, the flavor of choice, lecithin, sweetener, some tapioca starch, and oil (if desired). Combine all in a saucepan.
- Mix the starch into the milk before turning on the heat.
- Turn the heat to medium and stir frequently until it comes to a slow boil.
- Let it boil for a few seconds while stirring constantly. Then turn off the heat.
- Store in an airtight jar or bottle for up to 5 days.
Notes
- You can also use coffee syrups to flavor the creamer. For this method, use 2 tbsp of syrup and omit the extract and sugar.
- If using the added-fat method, stir the oil and lecithin well to emulsify them.
- Put into an airtight jar while still warm. If you let it sit and cool, a film will form at the top of your creamer.
