Why make homemade coffee creamer with coconut milk?
Not only does coconut milk creamer add a touch of nutty flavor, but it is a way to create a diary free coffee creamer. This Vegan Coffee Creamer is thick and indulgent thanks to coconut milk. The cinnamon and vanilla add natural flavor that will perk up your cup of coffee.
How To Make Homemade Creamer?
Step 1: Choose your base, in this case it is coconut milk. But you can use almond milk, oat milk, cream or milk.
Step 2: Add the flavors and sweetness. This recipe uses maple syrup to sweeten which is why it is Paleo and Vegan. But you can also use honey or omit the maple syrup to create a Whole 30 friendly coffee creamer.
Step 3: Heat ingredients on the stovetop until they begin to steam. Then let cool, transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate. Depending on the consistency of your coconut milk it may thicken in the refrigerator. I store my creamer in a lidded glass jar so I can shake it up before use if necessary.

How many ounces of coconut milk do you use? 2 typical cans would be 28 ounces and that just seems like a lot
I use 2 cans, approximately 13 ounces each. You can always make a half batch 🙂
Can you use vanilla extract instead of vanilla bean?
Absolutely 🙂
How long will this store in the fridge for usually?
I store mine for about a week. Just be warned that the full fat coconut milk with solidify a bit in the fridge. I either take it out 10 minutes before I need it or run the jar under warm water to melt it a little. Then just shake 🙂
