About

This is a slightly, sweetened delicious creamer that can be made ahead of time to adorn your nice, strong cup of coffee in the mornings or as an afternoon pick-me-up. Full of healthy fats, this creamer will help you meet your goals throughout the day. Feel free to replace the coconut oil with MCT oil.

Why is this low-carb creamer better than store-bought options?

Well, first of all, you control the quality of the 5 ingredients you are using, while with store-bought, there is a long list of components, of which some may be unhealthy additives and preservatives. This coffee creamer is also budget-friendly and takes only a few minutes to prepare, probably faster than the time it takes to visit the coffee creamer aisle at the store.

Can you make this coffee creamer without dairy?

Yes, you can. Just swap the heavy cream for coconut milk and the butter for more coconut oil. The dairy-free creamer has a thinner consistency than that with dairy, but it is just as delicious. A downside to making this recipe using coconut milk is that the creamer is more likely to split if it's too cold and the coffee is too hot. Let the dairy-free creamer warm to room temperature before pouring it into hot coffee or use it in iced coffee.

How long will it last in the fridge?

This sugar-free coffee creamer will last for 4-5 days in the fridge. If you can't use all of it within that time, you can prepare half the recipe.

Ingredients

  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • ¼ cup the ultimate icing sugar replacement by swerve
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoon butter, salted
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil

Instructions

  1. Add the heavy cream, sweetener, vanilla extract, butter, and coconut oil to a blender cup. Blend with a stick blender (including a pinch of salt) until smooth and frothy. Alternatively, you can use a standing blender.
  2. Store in a glass bottle in the fridge. Pour a serving (2 T) into a regular sized hot cup of coffee and enjoy!
