Easy Dairy Free Holiday Desserts: Your Ultimate Guide

Alright, listen up, y’all! We’re gonna talk ’bout them fancy desserts, the kind you eat on holidays, but without all that milk and cream stuff. You know, for folks who can’t stomach it, or just don’t want it. We’re makin’ dairy free holiday desserts, that’s what we’re doin’.

First off, let’s tackle that pumpkin pie. Every holiday needs a pumpkin pie, right? But this ain’t your grandma’s pie, unless your grandma was hip to this no-dairy stuff. We’re gonna make a vegan gluten-free pumpkin pie. Yeah, you heard that right, no eggs or wheat neither! You get yourself a can of pumpkin, not the pie filling stuff, just the plain pumpkin. Then you need some sugar, some spices, you know, cinnamon, ginger, that kinda thing. And instead of milk, we’ll use coconut milk, the thick kind. It makes it real creamy, you won’t even miss the regular milk, I swear! For the crust, you can buy a gluten-free one, or if you’re feeling fancy, you can make your own with almond flour or somethin’. Mix it all up, pour it in the crust, and bake it till it’s set. Easy peasy!

Now, let’s move on to somethin’ a little different. How ’bout some dairy free chocolate avocado mousse? Don’t go scrunchin’ up your face, it ain’t as weird as it sounds. You take a couple of ripe avocados, the soft kind, and scoop ’em out into a bowl. Add some cocoa powder, some sugar or maple syrup, if you like, and a little bit of vanilla. You can even throw in a pinch of salt, it makes the chocolate taste better, don’t ask me why, it just does. Blend it all up until it’s smooth and creamy. You can chill it in the fridge for a bit, makes it taste even better. It’s so rich and chocolatey, nobody will ever guess there’s avocado in it, unless you tell ‘em, which you probably shouldn’t, unless you want them to make that face again.

  • Another good one is dairy-free apple crisp. Apples, you know, the kind you get at the store, or maybe you even got a tree in your yard. Peel ‘em, chop ‘em up, and toss ‘em with some sugar and cinnamon. For the topping, you can use oats, some flour, some brown sugar, and some vegan butter. Mix it all up, sprinkle it over the apples, and bake it till it’s bubbly and golden brown. It’s warm, it’s comforting, and it’s perfect for a chilly holiday evening.
  • And if you’re really wantin’ to impress folks, try makin’ some dairy free peppermint bark. It’s so easy, and it looks so fancy. You just melt some dairy-free chocolate chips, spread it out on a piece of parchment paper, then melt some white chocolate chips, the dairy free kind, of course, and drizzle it over the dark chocolate. Sprinkle some crushed candy canes on top, let it harden, and then break it into pieces. It’s festive, it’s minty, and it’s so good, you’ll want to eat the whole batch yourself, but maybe save some for the other folks, ya know, be polite.

So there you have it, a few ideas for dairy free Christmas desserts, or any holiday really. You don’t need milk and cream to make somethin’ delicious. Just a little bit of creativity and some good ingredients. And don’t you go worryin’ about it bein’ too hard, even an old woman like me can whip these up. So go on, give it a try. Your belly will thank you, and so will them folks who can’t eat all that dairy stuff. They’ll be so happy to have somethin’ sweet to enjoy, just like everyone else.

And remember, baking ain’t an exact science, it’s more like, you know, a feelin’. If it looks too thick, add a little more liquid, if it looks too thin, add a little more dry stuff. Just keep tastin’ it and adjustin’ it till it tastes right. That’s how my mama taught me, and her mama taught her. And if you mess it up, well, nobody’s perfect. Just try again, or eat it anyway, nobody’s gonna judge, especially if it tastes good, even if it looks a little wonky.

These dairy free treats ain’t just for holidays neither. You can make them anytime you want a little somethin’ sweet. And who says you can’t have dessert every day? I ain’t gonna tell nobody if you do. Life’s too short to not enjoy a little sweetness now and then, especially when it’s good for you, well, maybe not good for you, but good for your soul, or somethin’ like that.

So go on, get in that kitchen and start bakin’. You got this! And remember, the most important ingredient is love. Yeah, I know it sounds corny, but it’s true. When you bake with love, it always tastes better. So put a little love in your desserts, and they’ll be the best darn dairy-free desserts anybody’s ever tasted. You’ll see.
