Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
- 1 cup full-fat coconut milk
- 3 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoon ground ginger
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the pumpkin puree and coconut milk. Whisk together over medium heat until smooth and heated through, about 5 minutes.
Add the maple syrup, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ground ginger, and salt. Stir well to combine all ingredients.
Continue to cook the mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until it thickens slightly. This should take about 5 more minutes.
Once the mixture is thickened and well-combined, remove the saucepan from the heat and let it cool slightly.
Transfer the mixture to a blender and blend on high speed for about 1 minute until the cream is very smooth and has a creamy texture.
Allow the vegan pumpkin cream to cool completely. Transfer it to a container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before using.
Serve chilled over desserts, coffee, or as a dip for fruit.
