Ingredients

Basic Powdered Coffee Creamer Recipe

  • 3 cups Powdered milk, non-fat or full-fat You can also use powdered creamer to replace up to half of the powdered milk in the 3 cup measurement. Also, for a dairy-free alternative, you can use 3 cups of coconut milk powder.
  • 1 cup Whole sweetener such as Sucanat Optional whole sweeteners include coconut sugar, date sugar, or maple sugar. You can add an additional 1/8 cup of sweetener to this mix for a very sweet tasting creamer.

Optional Flavorings for Basic Powdered Coffee Creamer Recipe Above

    Vanilla Flavoring

    • 1 tbsp Vanilla powder or 1/2 vanilla bean pod Alternatively, you can use sugar that you have scented with 1 vanilla bean pod over a few weeks. Use the scented sugar in place of the vanilla powder or the 1/2 vanilla bean pod.

    Pumpkin Pie Flavoring

    • 1 tbsp Pumpkin Pie spice

    Apple Pie Flavoring

    • 1 tbsp Apple pie spice

    Cinnamon Flavoring

    • 1 tbsp Ground cinnamon

    Mocha Flavoring

    • 2 tbsp Unsweetened cocoa powder
    • 1 tsp Espresso powdered or freeze-dried coffee powder, optional This ingredient provides an intense mocha coffee flavor.

    Coconut Flavoring

    • 2 tbsp Coconut "milk" powder

    Mint Flavoring

    • 1 tsp Dried mint NOTE: Mix this with the sweetener first, then sift out any bits of dried mint that did not fully pulverize.

    Instructions

    • Add your sweetener of choice to a food processor, blender, or other electrical mixer, and pulverize the sweetener until it turns into a fine powder. This process can take up to 2 minutes, depending on the type of device you are using. (If you are using the small spice/coffee bean grinder, you will need to do this in multiple batches) (See video.)
    • Add your flavoring of choice to the powdered sweetener and pulverize for 30 seconds.
    • Add powdered milk of choice to sweetener mixture and blend for 60 seconds or until fully blended.
    • Transfer the mixture to an airtight jar and store in your pantry. This mixture has a shelf life of one year.
    • To use your powdered coffee creamer, add 1 tablespoon to an 8-12 ounce mug and pour in hot coffee. You can add more creamer if you want.) Stir and enjoy!
