Doesn't matter if it's sweltering our arctic outside, coffee is the morning ritual I can't live without. I've already discussed how I make it iced, with a jolt of protein from collagen (and why you should too), but one aspect of my coffee obsession I haven't yet shared with you is how to make the perfect Trim Healthy Mama coffee creamer.
It's a simple concept, really: cream, sweetener, and flavoring.
But getting it right?
Well that's a whole different ballgame.
Lucky for you, I've been working really hard on upping my coffee and creamer game, so I've got a Trim Healthy Mama coffee creamer recipe for you + 7 coffee creamer variations for you today. They're all simple to make, require ingredients you probably already have in your cupboard (because you're a Trim Healthy Mama) – and I've done the heavy experimental lifting for you!
If you haven't really started filling your cupboards with THM-friendly foods, I'll give you heads up on what you'll need to make these recipes:
6 Doonks Pure Stevia Extract (or ¼ cup Super Sweet Blend)
Instructions
Put all the ingredients in a jar and stir to combine.
DO NOT SHAKE as this will start to make whipped cream, not coffee creamer. Store in a jar with a tightly-fitted lid in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
Makes 36, 1 Tablespoon servings
Now for the fun part!
I've created 6 variations of Trim Healthy Mama coffee creamer just for you!
These versions are all THM:S, because that is my preference in the morning. As a bonus, add 2 scoops of collagen to your coffee + fun creamer for a meal in a coffee cup. It's a great way to start the day.
But if you prefer a THM:E or THM:FP for your morning, there are really easy substitutions. Sub Almond milk, or all fat free half & half to eliminate fat and carbs from the drinks, or fat free coconut milk (it's hard to find, but it's out there) instead of full-fat coconut milk.
Spices, Stevia, and Vanilla Extract are all Fuel Pulls, so substitute accordingly depending upon your needs!
I love me some coffee – and THM friendly coffee creamers are just the perfect icing on the cake!

To make soup creamy, simply swap heavy cream for unflavored coffee creamer by mixing it into the recipe or swirling it over top. If you happen to be out of milk when baking, use coffee creamer instead! Using a vanilla-flavored variety is a great way to add extra vanilla flavor to your favorite sweet treats.
Generally, Chobani's creamers provide both dairy and non-dairy options and this oat creamer stands out as the leanest choice, with 25 calories, 0.5 grams fat, and 4 grams added sugar per tablespoon, compared to their dairy counterparts with 35 calories, 1.5 grams fat, and 5 grams added sugar per tablespoon.
However, for an ingredient that can sweeten your favorite drinks, half-and-half may be the healthier option. It's not only lower in calories than coffee creamer but also less processed, contains healthier fats, and less likely to contain additives and extra sugar.
Adding heavy whipping cream to your coffee will cut through any bitterness and astringency to produce a velvety mouthfeel and a creamier taste. You can use heavy cream instead of creamer, and since it's a natural product, it will have fewer chemicals and preservatives, making it an arguably better choice.
Freezing coffee creamer is a great way to always have a creamer on hand for your own coffee or guests who use it. Coffee creamer can even be frozen in single servings, making it even easier to have at-the-ready with no need to defrost an entire container for single use.
Coffee with coconut creamer is a popular beverage choice among those with fatty liver disease. Coconut oil is rich in medium chain triglycerides (MCTs), which are thought to be beneficial for people with this condition.
COOL WHIP substitute Non-dairy Creamer [coffee creamer] can be whipped into topping like dream whip. I get the large jars at Sam's club & the directions are on them. It's 2 parts creamer to 1 part cold milk: sugar & vanilla to taste. It takes 5 - 7 minutes of whipping at high speed until stiff.
While any coffee creamer can be used to make coffee creamer ice cream, we recommend selecting a healthy coffee creamer made with all-natural ingredients. By selecting a creamer made without water or processed vegetable oil, you'll make a richer, creamier ice cream treat!
For example, popular coffee additives like flavored creamer and syrups are packed with added sugar, which can negatively affect health in several ways. Fortunately, healthy additives like collagen, cinnamon, cacao, ginger, and monk fruit can enhance the flavor and health benefits of your coffee.
In general, plant-based creamers are a healthier option than those made with dairy. Why? Plant-based and non-dairy creamers contain less cholesterol and saturated fat. However, not all plant-based creamers are created equal; some may contain high levels of added sugars and artificial additives.
