Here's a recipe for a healthier version of whipped cream that uses natural ingredients:

Ingredients:

• 1 can of full-fat coconut milk (refrigerated overnight)
• 1-2 tablespoons of sweetener (such as maple syrup, honey, or agave nectar)
• 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract (optional)

Instructions:

1. Place the can of coconut milk in the refrigerator overnight. This allows the coconut cream to separate and solidify.
2. Open the can of coconut milk without shaking it. Scoop out the solidified coconut cream that has risen to the top and transfer it to a mixing bowl.
3. Using an electric mixer or whisk, beat the coconut cream on medium-high speed until it becomes fluffy and resembles whipped cream. This may take a few minutes.
4. Add the sweetener of your choice, starting with 1 tablespoon, and the vanilla extract (if desired). Continue beating the mixture until well combined and the desired sweetness is achieved. Taste and adjust the sweetness as needed.
5. Once the whipped cream reaches a light and fluffy consistency, it is ready to be used as a healthier alternative to traditional whipped cream.
6. Serve immediately or refrigerate in an airtight container until ready to use. It will slightly firm up when refrigerated.

This homemade whipped cream variation provides a healthier alternative by using the natural sweetness of your chosen sweetener and the rich creaminess of coconut milk. It can be used as a topping for desserts, fruit, or any other treats you enjoy. Enjoy your guilt-free whipped cream!
