FAQ:
Q: Can I use a different type of sweetener?
A: Yes! If you prefer not to use honey or maple syrup, you can substitute with stevia, monk fruit sweetener, or another sweetener of your choice. Just be sure to adjust the amount to taste, as some sweeteners are more potent than others.
Q: Can I use regular cream instead of coconut cream?
A: While coconut cream is the base for this healthy version, you can use regular heavy cream if you prefer a non-dairy-free option. However, this will change the flavor profile and make the recipe less “healthy” as it will contain more saturated fats.
Q: How can I make this lemon cream thicker?
A: If you find the lemon cream too thin, you can add more cornstarch or arrowroot powder to thicken it. Mix the powder with a small amount of water and heat it with the lemon juice before adding it to the cream. Alternatively, you can also reduce the coconut cream by simmering it for a few minutes to achieve a thicker texture.
Q: Can I make this cream dairy-free?
A: Absolutely! This recipe is naturally dairy-free since it uses coconut cream, which makes it a great option for anyone following a dairy-free, vegan, or lactose-free diet.
Q: Can I freeze this lemon cream?
A: Freezing this lemon cream is not recommended, as the texture may change once thawed. Coconut cream can separate and become grainy, so it’s best enjoyed fresh or within a few days of making it.
