Dairy-Free Coffee Creamer

Only 3 Main Ingredients Needed For This Recipe!

Only requiring 3-ingredients, this delicious and healthy coffee creamer is perfect to use when you’re avoiding dairy. Although I call it a coffee creamer, you can totally use it with teas and other beverages too. It’s super easy to make, though preparation of soaking the almonds/cashews will take at least 6 hours, so you’ll have to wait a little while before using it.

  • Raw Almonds – Or you can use cashews which is also delicious, though not as complementary to the flavors of coffee. 

  • Water

  • Full-Fat Coconut Milk

Tips & Tricks When Making Dairy-Free Coffee Creamer

  • Coconut Milk: If you don’t like the taste of coconut, you can simply omit the coconut milk in this recipe. If leaving out the coconut milk, blend nuts with 2 cups of water instead of 1.

  • Optional Add-Ins: Dates, cinnamon, vanilla extract or maple syrup are all perfectly great options to add to this dairy-free coffee creamer for added sweetness.

  • Switch vanilla extract for French vanilla extract if you prefer. You can also add a splash of hazelnut extract along with the vanilla extract for more flavor!
