Delightfully creamy and irresistibly refreshing, this Strawberry Tofu Mousse is a plant-based dessert that’s as healthy as it is indulgent. Made with just five simple ingredients—fresh strawberries, silken tofu, maple syrup, lemon juice, and vanilla extract—this recipe blends together in under 10 minutes, making it perfect for busy weeknights or last-minute entertaining. The silky tofu creates an ultra-smooth texture, while the naturally sweet strawberries and aromatic vanilla add a burst of flavor to every spoonful. This no-cook, dairy-free dessert is also low in sugar, thanks to the natural sweetness of the fruit and a touch of maple syrup. Serve it chilled in individual bowls, and garnish with a sprig of fresh mint or an extra strawberry slice for an elegant touch. Whether you’re vegan, lactose intolerant, or simply craving something light and luscious, this Strawberry Tofu Mousse is sure to impress!
Rinse the strawberries under cold water and gently pat them dry with a kitchen towel.
Hull the strawberries by removing the green tops, and then slice them into halves.
In a blender or food processor, combine the silken tofu, halved strawberries, maple syrup, lemon juice, and vanilla extract.
Blend the mixture until it becomes completely smooth and creamy. Scrape down the sides of the blender as needed to ensure everything is evenly mixed.
Taste the mousse and, if needed, add additional maple syrup to adjust the sweetness to your liking.
Transfer the mousse into 4 small serving bowls or glasses.
Chill the mousse in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to allow it to set and develop its flavors.
Before serving, optionally garnish each bowl with a fresh mint leaf or a small strawberry slice for added presentation.
Serve cold and enjoy your Strawberry Tofu Mousse!
