Vegan “eggnog” no sugar

Uncategorized

To celebrate that our cookbook is officially out, finally.  We will be posting a few festive recipes to wet your appetite, and what drink is more festive this time of year than eggnog. This “Neggnog” recipe is our version of a vegan Eggnog, that the whole family can enjoy.  Yummy goodness without all the cholesterol, and it’s sweetened with dates and stevia, what could be better?

I personally never really liked eggnog, but for my husband it was a totally different story.  He loved the stuff and drank his share over the years; so come this time of year, he feels like he is missing out on something since becoming vegan.  So last winter he started hinted that it would be so nice if I could come up with a vegan version.  I thought well the simpler thing to do since eggnog wasn’t really my thing anyway, would just be to find a good recipe online and make it for him, but he wasn’t satisfied with the ones I tried (now I am not saying I exhausted all the recipes out there, I am sure eventually I would have found a winner) but I was beginning to think perhaps it might be easier to start from scratch.  We had already made a millet milk for the cookbook and I was already experimenting with aqua faba, so it seemed like a good place to start.  After a little tweaking we ended up with a recipe that the whole family likes.  The recipe makes a serving for two, so increase the amounts as necessary.

We have had it twice already this in the past few days and already I am wanting to make more, I can’t wait to here what you think and how it might be made better, so please leave a comment below, and let me know your feedback.

NegNog

Ingredients

  • 1/2 c. hot cooked millet
  • 1 1/2 c. water
  • 1/8- 1/4 tsp. ground lecithin granuals
  • 3/4 tsp.vanilla extract
  • 1/8 tsp. Now better stevia powder

  • 2 drops almond extract
  • 3 dates, pitted
  • 1-2 Tbsp. Aquafaba

Instructions

  1. Place all ingredients in the blender and blend on high until silky smooth.
  2. Then you can either pour it through a nut milk bag, or a really fine sieve (personally I find if I have taken the time to blend it enough, I can skip this, but I am using a vitamix).
  3. Pour into glasses and sprinkle with a little more Ceylon cinnamon.
  4. Optionally you can fold in a little whipped egg white substitute, like aquafaba before serving.
  5. Enjoy!
