Question:

Do you have a recipe for vegan (faux) "whipped cream"?

— Dr K Kimmel

Answer:

There are a few. I do a coconut whipped cream or aquafaba whipped cream, or I use vegan whipping cream or vegan heavy cream and whip it. There are many recipes actually, or a couple that I know that really work to make vegan whipped cream. But they often, the two that I'm thinking of are based on cashew and then loads of coconut oil and they do whip like whipped cream. But I'm not personally a fan of that, of using that much coconut oil, so I don't do it.
