Don’t tell me that, as a kid, you didn’t enjoy eating bowls of plain whipped cream.
What? You didn’t? It was just me?
Especially around Thanksgiving, I could’ve done without the pies. Just give me the heavy cream and nobody’d get hurt. Therefore, I am head-over-heels in love with this recipe. It’s light, airy, and… creamy!
It’s the perfect substitute for heavy cream on top of pie, ice cream, or a parfait.
You can even try this in the Voluminous Oatmeal Recipe.
Or just eat the entire bowl straight-up, as I like to do!
Soy-Free Vegan Cream
(Makes 1 1/2 cups: one Katie-sized serving!)
- sweetener of choice
- 1/16th tsp salt
- 1 1/2 T water (20g)
- 1/2 serving agar base (see below)
- 3 drops coconut extract (Optional, but highly recommended)
- optional: cocoa or fruit (for flavored cream)
Instructions: First, make up the agar base. When it’s cooled, put half of it in a blender (or Magic Bullet) with all the other ingredients and blend away. Whip very well. I like to put it in the freezer for a few minutes prior to eating, so it’s super-cold. Optional: add fruit, cacao nibs, cocoa powder, or other add-ins.

Want a version without agar? Try this: Coconut Cool Whip.
Uses for the Vegan Cream: Pour over berries, pie (pumpkin pie?!), waffles, or you can even eat it plain.
Or try it over pancakes, such as my Strawberry Shortcake Pancakes.

Since our blender broke, I would use the MB to make smoothies!
Goodness this giveaway is exciting! I was actually going to go to Bed Bath and Beyond on Black Friday to buy a new blender because I broke my old blender trying to make almond butter (which, may I say, turned out into a horrendous mess). As for what I would make with a Magic Bullet, my first choice is homemade larabars! I tried making homemade larabars with my old blender but again, horrendous mess ;p Then of course I would have to go with classic smoothies, dips, vegan pudding, vegan cream, and some other recipes that I’m dying to experiment with!
Ha, I was thinking of how much I’d want a Magic Bullet to be able to make this Vegan Cream! I’ve made it once now in the blender, but it seems like som of it goes to waste because it gets stuck all over the big blenders blades and jar- not to mention I have to use the whole big thing trying to maneuver it and scrape every last bit off becuase I’d hate to see it go down the drain! *gasp*. I’d also try some blended grain reicipes and soups and a whole lot more! Mostly all that stops me from doing recipes is the thought of it getting stuck on the blender bottom and sides and not getting as much (wasting) out of the recipes no matter how much I spatula the sides!.. Speaking of which I just made a Vegan Chocolate Fudge Cake…Should I go and hug it? ;D
Yes!! lol 😉
I’d like to try your vegan soy-free whipped cream … and also some homemade blended soups!
If I had a magic bullet I would have to skip work one day and make every recipe I can. The first thing I would make is a smoothie. Then I go on to make the vegan cheesecake. Oh, and of course I would make some homemade nut butters. I want one sooooooo bad!!
Honestly I have no idea what I would make but I would definitely find every recipe I could and try it out!
I would make baby food.
I would definitely make more oatmeal pancakes, and cauliflower “rice”!
I would make so many different things if I had a Magic Bullet, haha. The closest thing I have to a food processor is a 20 year old blender.
I think the first thing I would make is the vegan cream. I mean, who can resist bowls and bowls of cream? 😀
If i had a magic bullet of my own, i’d make that whipped cream, smoothies, blended oatmeal, and your raw cheesecake. With that whipped cream, i’d top my oatmeal with it, my hot chocolate, and some pumpkin pie this weekend.
