Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 1 cup Full-fat coconut milk
- 3 tablespoons Maple syrup (or honey)
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon (optional, for spiced flavor)
- 1 tablespoon Cacao powder (optional, for mocha flavor)
- 2 tablespoons Pumpkin puree (optional, for pumpkin spice flavor)
- 0.5 teaspoon Pumpkin spice blend (optional, for pumpkin spice flavor)
- 0.5 teaspoon Peppermint extract (optional, for peppermint mocha flavor)
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the unsweetened almond milk and full-fat coconut milk.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir gently until the mixture begins to warm, but do not boil.
Add the maple syrup (or honey) and vanilla extract. Stir well to incorporate.
If using optional flavors, add them now: cinnamon for a spiced flavor, cacao powder for mocha flavor, pumpkin puree and pumpkin spice for pumpkin spice flavor, or peppermint extract for peppermint mocha flavor.
Continue stirring until the creamer is fully combined and heated through (about 5–7 minutes). Remove the saucepan from heat.
Allow the creamer to cool for a few minutes before transferring it to a clean glass jar or bottle with a tight-fitting lid.
Store in the refrigerator for up to 7 days. Shake well before each use.
Add 1–2 tablespoons (or more, based on preference) to your coffee and enjoy!
