Coconut Oat Vanilla Nut Creamer is flavorful, easy, unique, fast and tasty! Try a new creamer that makes the morning just right!
Look what I found! A recipe for Coconut Oat Vanilla Nut Creamer in the new cookbook from Kathy Hester titled OATrageous Oatmeals.
I had quite a time trying to decide on which recipe I wanted to showcase for this post. There are so many good recipes but the reason I choose this nut creamer was because the combination of ingredients are so unique and the results are perfect.
I use ‘creamer’ daily and now I have a new addition that is slightly sweet and very flavorful.
If you are looking for healthier meals with lots of flavor you have got to pick up this cookbook. I already have mine splattered with ingredients from multiple recipes.
There are homemade staples such as Do It Yourself Golden Gravy Mix, a variety of oatmeals and pancakes like Caramel Delight Oatmeal, smoothies, granolas, bars, soups, lunch and dinner specialities and … more! Mini Raspberry Cakes sound darn good too.
I cann’t wait to try the Oat-chata. So clever. Just the photography will have you drooling.
Without further ado here is the talented Kathy’s recipe for Coconut Oat Vanilla Nut Creamer.
Coconut Oat Vanilla Nut Creamer
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup rolled oats
- 1/4 cup finely shredded coconut
- 1 cup water
- 1 tablespoon agave nectar (or sweetener of choice to taste)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon almond extract - 1/4 teaspoon to 1/2 teaspoon to taste
Instructions
- Break the oats and coconut into tiny pieces with your blender. Add the water and let soak for 10 minutes.
- Blend again for about 3 minutes or until smooth, then run the creamer through a fine mesh strainer over a small bowl to strain out the oat pieces.
- Put the liquid, sweetener and extracts back in the blender and blend until the sweetener is incorporated and dissolved.
Notes
Nutrition
This creamer gives you the same fun flavor without all the fillers. You can play with the extracts you use to change flavors.

I love oat milk and I hadn’t thought of trying to make a creamer out of oats. Thank you for sharing this fantastic recipe!
Yes, I would refrigerate for safety. Mine always disappears before a week so I would suggest that it keeps, safely, for five days.
Do you have to refrigerate it? Also, how long can you store it?
Love this! I’ve never thought of making my own creamer.
What a great option for your morning coffee!
That’s just all kinds of awesome. From time to time, I make a chai latte (usually drink my tea black) and I don’t put the fake gunk in it. It’d be fun to try this good stuff!
Kathy is SO creative!! Her new book is awesome!
You are very welcome Christine!
That is great Lauren! It is very different but also tasty!
Wonderful Alissa!
Kathy is so wonderful and her book looks great! This is such an awesome, wholesome alternative for non-dairy creamer.
This book is on my list! Oh, I just HAVE to try this creamer. If I could have coconut for every meal I would. Now I can have it in my coffee! It’s the island girl in me.
How interesting! That combination of coconut, oats, and vanilla would be fantastic in my morning coffee.
I had no idea that you could make creamer from oats! How awesome!
I love this recipe, I love Kathy and her book, and I love you for supporting Kathy’s book.
I have to get this book. I honestly do not like fake creamers and now I just want to try this interesting idea…love it!
I always love to have a dairy free alternative. This is very interesting. Thanks for sharing.
This looks really great – I’ve also been looking for a good dairy free creamer! Can’t wait to try it!
I love this recipe! I will share this with all of my dairy-free clients 🙂
Fantastic Heather! I had it this morning 🙂
Great cat!
Sounds like a great cookbook!! Love the homemade creamer.
I’ve been looking for a really good dairy-free creamer recipe. Glad you picked this recipe to share – I’m definitely going to give it a try 🙂
Oh yes, I have this one bookmarked to make in the book! Now I need to get on it sooner rather than later, it sounds great.
Hi Heather – store in the fridge up to one week.
This looks great–I’m going to try it this week!
How long do you think that this would keep in the fridge?
