I think you either love eggnog or you hate it. I have always LOVED it. But it didn’t love me back. I created this super rich DAIRY-FREE eggnog for absolutely selfish reasons, but I’m so happy to share it with you 🙂 If you need me, I’ll be sitting by the fire, slowly sipping this.
Dairy-free Eggnog
dairy-free, refined-sugar free
Puree in the blender:
8 egg yolks
1 can of canned full-fat coconut milk
Pour into a mixing bowl and set aside.
Add to a medium/large sized pot:
3 cups unsweetened almond milk OR Tempt hemp milk
1 can of canned full-fat coconut milk
1/2 3/4 cup coconut sugar
1 tbsp vanilla extract
2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
1/8 tsp a pinch of allspice
Bring to simmer. Slowly ladle a little of the hot liquids into the egg yolk mixture, whisking constantly. After you have whisked in about a cup of the hot liquids, transfer the yolk mixture to the pot. Whisk while simmering for about three minutes. Remove from heat and serve or refrigerate for later.

This recipe comes from my new book, Easy Paleo Meals, which contains all my holiday recipes and meal plans!

What is hemp milk? I am completely grain free, dairy free, and legume free, and soy free, though I DO eat eggs. If hemp will create a sensitivity for me, what can I substitute for it?

I am DYING to try this now! It’s on our Christmas menu for sure. My kids are going to be so excited to have this treat. I think I might try subbing cashew milk for the hemp though. Thank you Kelly!

Hemp milk is amazing! It’s made out of hemp seeds. Definitely dairy-free and soy-free

Wow, $30 for Coconut sugar! Yikes. Can you substitute honey or agave? Looks delicious. Love your video’s and recipes.
Charis @ MannaTreats says
this looks delish!
Kelly says
Thanks guys!
Hemp is a seed, but cashew or almond would work fine too.
Nelle, The $30 is for 6 pounds of coconut sugar, but you could substitute any sweetener.

What a beautiful photo! I’ve never been a fan of eggnog, but your recipe has inspired me to try it again. 🙂
Meagan says
Eggnog is the BEST. I would use raw milk instead of hemp here.
