  • ¼ cup currants

  1. Place all ingredients, except currants, into a medium sized mixing bowl.
  2. Whisk until blended.

Notes

  • I find this to set up rather quickly. I refrigerate it because I prefer it chilled.
  • The coconut milk is much easier to stir if you use a room temperature can of milk.
  • If you get distracted like I do in the kitchen and you leave it sitting while you are doing 3 other things, it will set up in the mixing vessel. For more ease (and tidiness) in storage, pour it immediately into storage container. 
  • This recipe is very versatile.  Adding a scoop of grass-fed collagen (NOT gelatin, there is a difference), hemp hearts or extract flavor variations gives you extra nutrient density and flavor.
