Healthy Blueberry "Whipped Cream"
Healthy Blueberry Whipped Cream (sugar free, low carb, low fat, high protein, gluten free). Airy, fluffy, and melts in your mouth like whipped cream!
Ingredients
- 260g (2 cups) Frozen Blueberries
- 1½ cups Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk
- 32g (1 scoop) Chocolate Whey Protein Powder (or Vanilla)
- ¾ tsp Liquid Stevia Extract
- 1 tsp Xanthan Gum (divided)
Instructions
- In a high speed blender, add the frozen blueberries, almond milk, protein powder, stevia and ½ tsp of xanthan gum. Puree until completely smooth (I used the smoothie program preset on my Vitamix twice). It should double in size.
- Pour the entire mixture in a stand mixer bowl. Place the bowl in the freezer for 15 minutes.
- Fit the bowl onto the stand mixer with a whisk attachment and whip on high speed for 10 minutes.
- Turn off the mixer and sprinkle in the remaining ½ tsp of xanthan gum. Whip on high speed for 8 minutes. Mixture should be very fluffy and should have increased in volume again.
- Detach the whisk attachment from the stand mixer and place inside the blueberry mixture. Place the bowl in the freezer again for another 15 minutes.
- Reattach the whisk attachment and bowl to the stand mixer. Turn on high speed and whip for 7 minutes. Enjoy!
