Paleo & Vegan Snickers Coffee Creamer

7 Nov

Pop quiz – why is coffee’s favorite time of year NOW? Because all the stylish creamers come out, ready to give coffee a major flavor makeover. I’ve been craving a sweet and tasty creamer that doesn’t have the typical junk of ingredients. So that’s why this coffee lover created a paleo & vegan Snickers coffee creamer.

Pin It!

Say goodbye to conventional coffee creamers because THIS 4 ingredient vegan & paleo Snickers creamer is your new go-to!

I be roaming through Target like a boss, giving rows and rows of processed creamers the ‘WHATEVER’ hand gesture (yes, Clueless was my guilty vice in 7th grade). ‘Cause momma created something better, something simple, something so decadently delicious without the impossible-to-pronounce stuff. And although all the holiday flavors kind of give me those giddy heart palipiations in anticipation for my favorite time of year, Snickers is year-round. So you can enjoy this treat 365 days. BOOM.

You might have to buy 365 cans of coconut milk because if you’re like me, you’ll plow through the entire 16 ounces in one sitting. I mean, who really NEEDS coffee anyway – just chug this creamer without the Joe! And at roughly $2 per can of coconut milk, that’s a good $730 a year that you should probably set aside when you become addicted to the paleo & vegan Snickers coffee creamer. Now close that other tab you have open – I know you’re shopping online for shoes…

An amazing coffee creamer that is clean and healthy. Made with simple ingredients and takes only 5 minutes to whip up! Snickers coffee creamer

Creamer can be a HARD thing to give up if you’re trying to go dairy-free or follow a paleo lifestyle. Black coffee is great and all, but flavored creamer makes every morning rainbows and butterflies. This paleo & vegan Snickers coffee creamer even makes Monday mornings great. Like jump-out-of-bed-Christmas-morning style because you are soooooo excited.

This Snickers inspired coffee creamer is paleo, vegan, and soooo easy to make at home. A creamer without the processed junk.

WHAT’S EVEN MORE AMAZING (making me type in all caps) is making this creamer in less than 5 minutes, with a few simple ingredients. That is snick-tactic if you ask me. Then store in the refrigerator 7-10 days. You’ll never ever ever have to go without a nummy coffee booster again! It kinda makes me want to bust out my inner Alicia Silverstone and give black coffee a big ‘whatever’ hand gesture too.

All you need to make this paleo & vegan Snickers coffee creamer are medjool dates, cocoa powder, almond extract, and coconut milk. I know what you’re thinking, “crazy woman, Snickers is made is caramel and peanuts.” I knoooooow silly, but we are improvising a bit. The dates act as a sweetener and make up a paleo version of caramel, while the almond extract adds a touch of nuttiness, in lieu of non-paleo compliant peanut. The coconut milk makes this creamer extra extra creamy – because no one wants thin, runny creamer. No bueno.

Four ingredients and five minutes, that's all you need to make this paleo & vegan Snickers coffee creamer

A healthy version of dessert coffee creamers - you HAVE to try this Snickers coffee creamer! Dairy-free and naturally sweetened.

Do yourself a favor and ditch that store-bought junk and try this paleo & vegan Snickers coffee creamer asap! Serve it in your morning coffee alongside this paleo apple bread with caramel maple glaze or this caramelized onion and butternut squash crustless quiche!

      It’s a ‘version’ 🙂 Like I said, I used almond extract in lieu of the ‘peanuts’ to keep this paleo-compliant. But I’m sure you’ll love it anyway Candy!

    I stopped using coffee creamer a few years ago because of all the sugar and unpronounceable ingredients, however my morning cup of coffee has never been the same. UNTIL NOW. I tried this two weeks ago and am now on my second batch. I have been jumping out of bed each morning thinking about my morning cup of coffee with a splash of pure deliciousness. I didn’t even have to go to the store to buy the few ingredients as they are all staples at my house and it is so easy and quick to make. Thank you Chrissa!

    When I first made it, it was a liquid and smelled so good. I had made it the night before so I could have it for morning. I put it in a jar and into the fridge. In the morning I pulled out what appeared to be pudding. Even after allowing it to come to room temperature, it was still thick and pudding-like. I tried putting it in my coffee anyways and it didn’t really dissolve.

    Followed the recipe to a “T”.

      Hi Melissa – full fat coconut milk will solidify when chilled, that’s totally normal and explains why it was pudding-like. I put it in my coffee every morning and it’s the same state you are referring too, but if you stir it in there for 30 seconds, it will dissolve and give you the most creamy, dreamy coffee ever. But you must stir it well. If the consistency bothers you, try this recipe with lite coconut milk or almond milk – that won’t thicken once chilled like full-fat coconut milk does.
