Ingredients
- 1 cup raw cashews
- 2 cups frozen blueberries
- ½ cup full-fat coconut milk
- 3 tablespoons coconut oil
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For Serving
- Fresh blueberries
- Grated chocolate
How to Make Blueberry Mousse
1. Blend the creamy base.
Add the raw cashews, coconut milk, coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla extract to a high-speed blender or food processor. Blend for about 3 minutes, or until the mixture becomes very smooth and creamy.
2. Add the blueberries.
Add the frozen blueberries and blend for another minute. The frozen fruit will quickly transform the mixture into a thick, creamy blueberry mousse.
3. Serve immediately.
Spoon the mousse into serving glasses or bowls and top with fresh blueberries and a little grated chocolate.
A Quick Dessert With Big Flavor
This blueberry mousse is a great example of how a handful of simple ingredients can come together to create something special. There’s no oven, stovetop, or complicated preparation involved—just blend, serve, and enjoy.
For an extra-refreshing summer dessert, keep the blueberries frozen until you’re ready to blend them. You can also experiment with different fresh fruit toppings, such as sliced peaches, raspberries, or strawberries.
Tip: If the mousse is too thick for your blender to process easily, add a small amount of coconut milk at a time until it reaches the desired consistency.
