Ingredients for Gluten-Free Coconut and Lime Mousse
- 250 ml dairy or plant-based milk
- 20g gluten-free rice flour @magnatera
- 20g gluten-free coconut flour
- 25g sugar
- 1 lime
Fresh coconut cubes for garnish (optional)
How to Make Gluten-Free Coconut and Lime Mousse
First, mix the flours, sugar, and the zest of one lime.
Note that the coconut flour we’re talking about is not the classic shredded coconut flakes, but a real 100% coconut flour (now easily found in both physical and online organic stores).
If you can’t find it, however, you can opt to use 40g of rice flour and use coconut milk as the liquid.
At this point, bring the milk to a boil, add some vanilla extract (a vanilla pod works too), and gradually pour in the flour while continuously whisking to prevent lumps. Lower the heat and continue stirring until you see the mixture thicken.
Turn off the heat and pour the cream into small glasses, garnish the desserts with lime zest and coconut cubes or shredded coconut flakes, and refrigerate for at least 3 hours.
Enjoy this refreshing dessert as a snack or for a light and cool breakfast.
