Vegan Coffee Coconut Jelly

Vegan Coffee Coconut Jelly. Light, tasty and refreshing! This is a dessert that originates from Thailand. In Thailand, coconut milk is often used in their desserts.

This is one my favourite coffee desserts because it’s not heavy and it’s very cooling especially for this hot summer! 

My coffee and coconut cream jelly is made with 5 ingredients!  You can even pour condensed milk overtop and there are some vegan versions available that are made with Vegan Condensed Coconut milk.

This coffee coconut jelly recipe is easy to make despite how it looks. And I share how to get the exact layers below.

Tips

• Always whisk your agar agar powder into the liquid before you heat it. This allows for the agar agar powder to mix in with the ingredients well to prevent any clumps.
• Use a whisk! This ensure even distribution of your liquids. A fork does not cut it.
• Make sure to monitor your jelly liquid and do not over boil. Once it hits a boil, lower it to a very low simmer.
• Always keep your jelly liquid over very low heat before pouring into the mold. This ensures your jelly stays as a liquid. If you remove it off the heat source, it will solidify very quickly.
• Pour your hot liquid over the back of a spoon when pouring over another jelly layer. This prevents the first layer from being broken from the heat of the liquid

Benefits of Coconut Milk

Did you know coconut milk is actually very healthy? It’s full of important nutrients like manganese. Manganese may be beneficial for bone health and may help decrease inflammation.  Other benefits of coconut milk also may include: lowering inflammation, decreasing stomach ulcer size and fighting viruses and bacteria.

For my dessert, I’ve partnered with Kitchen Stuff Plus.  They have kindly sponsored this recipe and gifted me with all the kitchen tools that you see here in this post.  I wanted to created a healthy dessert recipe to showcase their stylish, affordable and dependable kitchen and coffee tools.

To make this vegan coffee and coconut jelly, I first used KSP Kava Manual Coffee Grinder to grind fresh coffee beans for best taste.  You may also use espresso for a stronger coffee taste and for that I recommend the Bialetti Venus Stovetop Espresso Maker.

I then transferred the ground coffee into KSP Milano ‘Double Wall’ French Coffee Press and filled it with hot boiling water pressing out the hot java.  I poured the coffee into a small pot, whisking in oat milk, agar agar powder and maple syrup measured out by KSP Omni Measuring Spoons and KSP Omni Measuring Cups.

I brought this mixture to a boil and then on a low simmer, while stirring constantly. I allowed it to rest on the stove over low heat to prevent the mixture from forming into a solid jelly.

In another small pot, I whisked together my coconut milk, agar agar powder, maple syrup and water.  Bringing it to a boil and then a low simmer, stirring constantly.  I allowed this to sit on low heat to also prevent it from solidifying.

Then in a square glass resealable container, I measured out ½ cup of the coffee mixture and gently poured it into the base of the container allowing it to set and solidify. Once it set, then I measured out ½ cup of coconut milk and poured it over top of my coffee jelly. I repeated this process until I filled the container.  Allow your coffee jelly with coconut milk to set in the fridge for at least an hour or overnight.  Slice and enjoy!
