  • 1 teaspoon vanilla

Instructions

  • Combine all ingredients in a mixing bowl, and using the whisk attachment, mix on high for about 14-16 minutes.

  • For the first while, it will appear that nothing is happening, until about 10 minutes in. Then you will see that it's starting to thicken. You can taste it at this point to adjust vanilla and sweetener levels according to your taste.

Notes

  • Nutrition values here are for 1/2 of the recipe. Adjust as needed for your serving size. 
  • You can use the liquid from any kind of white beans. Garbanzo beans or great northern beans both work perfectly. It's best to use beans without any added salt. 
  • Be patient! It can take up to 10 minutes, or even longer for the mixture to turn into fluffy whipped topping.
