Dairy Free Caramel Cream

I wanted to make something delectable to have with our leftover Banana Oat & Almond Pikelets this morning, so I whipped up this sweet and fluffy Dairy Free Caramel Cream. It’s absolutely heaven and it would be criminal of me not to share the recipe.

It’s as easy as pie and takes only moments to prepare. The only catch is that you’ll need a food processor or powerful blender.

The ingredients ooze ‘health’ – there’s no sugar, dairy or gluten and there’s no cooking required either.

So what’s in it? Just four simple ingredients – dates, coconut cream, cashews and vanilla. That’s it!

Enjoy this Caramel Cream atop:
