Low Carb Trifle : Using Coconut Cream


Anne Aobadia says, this is a "fresh and flavorful dessert with avocado and coconut". I note she also says it's "7 grams of carbs per serving", so you may wish to consider using this dessert recipe in your LCHF menu plans! Hey, even if you are not LCHF I'm sure you will like this idea, why not give it a try!

Ingredients:
4 servings
1 avocado, ripe
½ banana, ripe
¾ cup (180 ml) unsweetened coconut cream*
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 pinch lime zest (only the green part)
1 tablespoon vanilla
3 – 4 oz. (100 g) raspberries, fresh or frozen
2 oz. (60 g) roasted nuts, preferably pecans

* You’ll find coconut cream next to the regular coconut milk in the grocery store. You can also buy coconut milk and discard the water. Go with the consistency that works for you.


Tip!
Add flavour to the coconut and avocado batter with some cinnamon, cardamom or perhaps cocoa and coffee powder.

  1. Hmm - I'd need to wrap my head round having avocado as a desert; but it LOOKS fabulous. And, anyway, I don't claim to know anything about preparing good food.. :-)
