The Z Natural Foods Berry Mousse is quite the decadent treat! It also makes the perfect Valentine's Day dessert -- especially for lovers of fine vegan and tasty vegetarian foods.
The three main components in this dairy-free, vegan mousse are:
Aquafaba -- the liquid from garbanzo beans- The Berry Blend -- a mixture of
high quality ZNF powders (see mixture directions below) - The Cashew Cream made with the soaked banana and toasted cashews, which is
flavored by the berry mix.
Berry Mousse Ingredients and Directions
Ingredients:
- 2 ¼ cup lightly toasted Cashews
- 1 cup Berry mix powder (see directions below)
- ½ cup of strawberry powder
- 1 tbsp Vanilla extract
- 2 tsp lemon juice powder
- 1 ¼ cups
aquafaba (The liquid from a can of Garbanzo beans) - 1 ½ cups soaked banana (very soft)
- 1 cups of banana water from soaking
- ¾ cups of plain water
- 1 plus ½ cup Coconut sugar (divided in
two-1 cup will be used in theaquafaba and the ½ cup will be used in the cashew cream) - 1 cup dried or fresh raspberries
The Berry Blend
This Berry Blend is a very versatile mixture that has a long shelf life (about 2 years if stored in a cool, dry, dark location).
- ⅛ cup Raspberry powder
- ¼ cup Acai powder
- ¼ cup Blueberry juice powder
- ¼ cup Maqui berry powder
- ⅛ cup Beet Root powder
- ¼ cup Strawberry powder
Directions for the Berry Blend: Mix and sift these six powders together into one final mixture which now becomes ‘the berry blend’. Use 1 cup
Directions for the Berry Mousse:
- In a separate bowl, beat the
aquafaba with the vanilla extract with a hand-beater until stiff peaks form (see image above). - Add 1 cup of the sugar gradually and 1 tbsp of lemon juice powder as you continue beating.
- If the peaks soften just continue beating until stiff peaks return as you cannot overbeat
aquafaba . - Do the
aquafaba first as any fat on your equipment will prevent the solution to form stable peaks. - Making the Cashew Cream is very simple. In a food processor blend the cashew, banana water and soaked banana until smooth. Once creamy, remove from processor and place in a bowl working with a hand beater; beat in the berry blend powder, strawberry powder, plain water and ½ cup of coconut sugar until light and fluffy.
- Gently fold in with a spatula the stiffly beaten
agau faba thoroughly. - Refrigerate overnight.
Makes 10-12 servings
