Maple whipped cream is a decadant and delicious sugar free whipped cream! Use it to top apple crisp, apple pie, or your favorite hot chocolate!

- 3 Tablespoons real maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Beat the heavy whipping cream in a large bowl with a hand mixer or in the bowl of a standing mixer until it doubles in size.
- Add the maple syrup and vanilla extract and continue beating until soft peaks form and it is light and fluffy.
- Use immediately or cover and store in the fridge until ready to use.
Notes
Chilling your mixing bowl or the bowl of your standing mixer will help in keeping the cream cool while you are mixing it!
To make vegan maple whipped cream, use coconut milk instead of heavy cream. The night before or at least several hours before you plan to use the maple whipped cream, place a can of coconut milk in the fridge to chill.
Remove the can from the fridge carefully so as not to shake or turn it. Carefully, remove the lid and scoop out the solidified "cream" at the top of the can and transfer it to a mixing bowl. Add the maple syrup and vanilla extract and mix light and airy. You may need to allow the cream to warm up slightly if it is lumpy.
