Eggnog, dairy-free, refined-sugar free


I was inspired to make homemade dairy-free eggnog by Sunny at And Love it Too. (Make sure you check out her great tips for separating eggs!) You may prefer Sunny's recipe, which has less coconut milk and more sweetness, but I thought I would share my version also.

Eggnog, dairy-free, refined-sugar free

Blend:
8 egg yolks
1 can of full-fat Thai Kitchen coconut milk
Pour into a mixing bowl and set aside.

Add to a medium/large sized pot:
3 cups unsweetened Tempt hemp milk
1 cans of full-fat Thai Kitchen coconut milk
1/2 cup coconut sugar, which is low glycemic index
1 tbsp vanilla extract
2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp ground nutmeg
1/8 tsp allspice

Bring to simmer.

Slowly ladle a little of the hot liquids into the egg yolk mixture, whisking constantly.
After you have whisked in about a cup of the hot liquids, transfer the yolk mixture to the pot.
Whisk while simmering for about three minutes.

Remove from heat and serve or refrigerate for later.

What is hemp milk? I am completely grain free, dairy free, and legume free, and soy free, though I DO eat eggs. If hemp will create a sensitivity for me, what can I substitute for it?

I am DYING to try this now! It's on our Christmas menu for sure. My kids are going to be so excited to have this treat. I think I might try subbing cashew milk for the hemp though. Thank you Kelly!

Hemp milk is amazing! It's made out of hemp seeds. Definitely dairy-free and soy-free

Wow, $30 for Coconut sugar! Yikes. Can you substitute honey or agave? Looks delicious. Love your video's and recipes.

this looks delish!

Kelly said...

Thanks guys!

Hemp is a seed, but cashew or almond would work fine too.

Nelle, The $30 is for 6 pounds of coconut sugar, but you could substitute any sweetener.

What a beautiful photo! I've never been a fan of eggnog, but your recipe has inspired me to try it again. :)

Meagan said...

Eggnog is the BEST. I would use raw milk instead of hemp here.
