3 Ingredient Strawberry Mousse
This sweet, light and addicting dessert is sure to satisfy your sweet tooth! Can even be made into a paleo mousse recipe with a few simple tweaks. Have to try this!
This 3 Ingredient Strawberry Mousse can be made with numerous substitutions to make it compliant to almost any diet out there. I made 3 versions and they all turned out great. On the first one I went with traditional cream, organic pure cane sugar and fresh strawberries. It was heavenly, although not paleo compliant.
The next batch I made I used full fat coconut cream, sage honey and fresh strawberries. Holy cow! It was just as delicious! It had a slightly different taste than the first one mainly because of the honey. I happen to LOVE honey, especially sage honey, but if you are not a fan of honey, definitely go with the organic cane sugar or maple syrup for a more traditionally sweet taste.
The last batch I tried I used pure maple syrup, coconut cream and fresh strawberries. This was by far my favorite combination! The maple syrup and strawberries combined in a way that left my taste-buds begging for more.
This is such a simple dessert to whip up when you are craving something sweet and because it uses simple, fresh ingredients, it’s pretty healthy too.
