Coconut Whipped Cream:

Fruit Salad

- 2 cups ripe peaches pitted and chopped (2 peaches)
- 1 cup large ripe mango peeled and chopped (1 mango)
- Zest of 1 lemon or lime
- 3 leaves large fresh mint finely chopped
Instructions
- Add all of the ingredients for the coconut whipped cream to a stand mixer fitted with a whisk. Start mixer on low, then gradually work up to the highest speed. Whip until very thick and fluffy.
- Add all of the fruit to a large serving bowl, along with the zest and mint.
- Stir in the coconut whipped cream and toss until everything is well-coated. Taste the fruit salad and add more honey if desired. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
Notes
You only need the coconut flesh (also known as the coconut cream) from the can of coconut milk. Refrigerate the can of coconut milk for at least 3 hours (overnight is better). When you're ready to make the coconut whipped cream, scoop only the hardened cream out of the can, saving the coconut water for later use, such as a smoothie.
