Bold Bakers, when you don't have heavy
whipping cream to hand, I
am gonna show you the most
amazing whipped cream substitute that is
made using dry milk powder.
It is going to blow your mind.
Check this out, it is
really easy to make.
Into the bowl of a stand mixer, I'm going
to add in some ice
cold water, a little bit
of lemon juice, and some vanilla extract
to add flavor to our whipped cream.
So now we're going to add
in non-fat dry milk powder.
You can get this in supermarkets, I get
it in my local supermarket.
It usually can be
found in the baking aisle.
You can also order it online.
We're gonna turn on our
machine and let this combine.
Now go in with your spatula and just make
sure that it's all in the water, there's
no dry milk powder around the bowl.
We're gonna turn on our machine and this
is where the magic happens.
We're gonna whip this off on medium high
speeds for around 8 to 10 minutes or so.
Over time you're going to start to see it
get thicker and thicker and thicker.
So if you check this out now you can see
it's gotten much thicker.
That's why you want to hold your nerve a
little bit and keep on going.
So now here I have some
granulated sugar, some caster sugar.
We're going to just
sprinkle that in as it whips.
Just like the way you would with a
meringue, add it in bit by bit.
And this is really important.
Normally for a traditional whipped cream
I don't add in sugar,
but this is a whipped
cream substitute and it
does need that extra sweetness.
So we're adding in that bit of sugar.
Now let's see, okay.
Do you trust me enough?
Look at this.
Isn't that unbelievable?
Dried milk powder into whipped cream.
You'll notice that it's
nice and thick and billowy.
Similar and like airy to a meringue, but
does the job as a
whipped cream substitute.
This whipped cream substitute is best
used straight away
while it's still lovely and
airy and fluffy.
I like to serve it with
a variety of desserts.
It can go well with anything.
Today I'm going to serve it with a big
slice of pumpkin pie.
I will admit it probably sounds unusual
to make whipped cream
from dried milk powder,
but let me reassure you, this tastes
really great and it's just
as good as the real thing.
It is airy, it is soft, it is
sweet, it has vanilla in it.
It is really delicious.
And in a pinch it's
the perfect substitute.
It's a little bit like a hybrid of
meringue and whipped cream all in one.
This whipped cream substitute is fast,
it's easy to make and
the results are fantastic.
Thank you so much for watching.
