I’ve been trying out a few more gorgeous creations lately because I just bought myself a Magic Bullet. I already have a Vitamix which is brilliant but it’s not so great for making really small batches of things such as this Coconut Cream.
So now that my baby boy is starting eating solid foods and I am trying something different to exclusive baby led weaning that I did with my little girl, I needed something to make him small batches of sloppy stuff.
So of course I’m taking advantage of my great new kitchen gadget and literally whipping up all sorts of things. There is actually a whipping attachment with this Magic Bullet and the container is so small that you don’t end up wasting any food which also makes it so quick to wash up. I LOVE it!
Anyway – this is a recipe that I rarely make but it’s going to start seeing more of an appearance in my house now.

You don’t actually need to use a blender for this recipe, you could quite easily use a hand mixer, just a hand whisk or even just eat the coconut cream as it is!
How to make Coconut Cream
This recipe is so simple and it’s only got one ingredient! Of course you can jazz it up with a variety of different flavours and I’ll give you a few suggestions in the recipe.
You can serve this cream anywhere you’d normally use cream. The simplest and healthiest is just to serve it with fruit. I actually made Chocolate Orange Puddings topped with this Whipped Coconut Cream. I’ll be sharing this gorgeous recipe with you in a couple of weeks so stay tuned for that.
How to make Coconut Cream with one ingredient (Paleo, Vegan, Gluten Free)
Ingredients
- 1 Can of Natural Coconut Milk like this
- OPTIONAL EXTRAS
- Juice from 1 Lemon plus the zest
- Juice from ½ Orange plus the zest
- ½ teaspoon Cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 1 tablespoon of Maple syrup or Raw honey like this
Instructions
- Leave the can of coconut milk in the fridge overnight. This allows the cream to separate from the coconut water.
- Either turn the can upside down, open it and pour off the water (keep and add it to a smoothie or drink it)
- Or open the can and spoon out the cream from the top of the can
- Now whip it either giving it a quick blend in a blender or use a hand mixer, whisk or just simply eat it as it is.
- Add in some of the optional extras for different flavoured cream.

Hi Katherine,I just wanted to tell you I completed the 7 day detox and I feel so great.
I have lost 6lbs, do not feel like I need more my morning coffee, the flushing of my facial skin from rosacea has dramatically reduced and I am so excited to wake up each morning and make a green thickie for breakfast!!
I am a stay at-home, homeschooling momma of 3 littles and at times so busy I would forget to feed myself!
I would go most of the day without eating and then snack on random things.
I gained 60 pounds the last 6 years during pregnancy.
I have lost 30lbs but recently plateaued and have felt so frustrated.
I’ve tried everything from paleo and keto to the point where I didn’t know what to eat or how much and felt like even eating fruit was bad for me which thankfully it’s not!
What a game changer for me. Thank you for sharing a simple but effective program.
I’m so excited to continue another week with this plan! Thankful Stephanie

Hi, I’m Katherine. I lost 56 pounds and recovered from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome by replacing meals with Green Thickies – my original smoothie concept.

I’m interested in your experience with the magic bullet. I too have a vitamix and I bought a magic bullet to make salad dressing because the vitamix is so big I had to either make a huge batch or make a small one which was a nightmare to get out of the bottom of the vitamix. But when I tried the bullet it just swirled my seeds around and didn’t blend them. So I returned it.
Katherine Natalia @ Green Thickies says
That’s a shame the magic bullet didn’t blend your seeds. I’ve not actually tried blending seeds just yet. I guess each one has got their own pros and cons. It’s hard to find one product that does everything isn’t it!
