This Strawberry Aquafaba Mousse is a light, airy vegan dessert made with whipped aquafaba, strawberries, and coconut cream. It’s smooth, fruity, and elegant—proof that dairy-free and egg-free desserts can be just as luxurious as traditional mousse.

Ingredients

For the Mousse:

2 cups fresh strawberries (or raspberries/blueberries)

3 tbsp maple syrup (or granulated sugar)

1 tsp vanilla extract (or seeds from half a vanilla bean)

1 cup coconut cream (scoop the thick part from refrigerated coconut milk)

1 tsp agar powder

1 cup aquafaba (liquid from canned chickpeas)

For Serving:

1 cup fresh berries (for garnish)

Fresh mint leaves (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Rinse and hull the strawberries, then blend them with maple syrup and vanilla until smooth.
  2. In a small saucepan, heat coconut cream and agar powder over medium heat until it starts to boil. Stir constantly until agar is fully dissolved, then let cool slightly.
  3. In a clean mixing bowl, whip aquafaba with a hand or stand mixer for about 5 minutes until stiff peaks form.
  4. Gently fold the strawberry puree and cooled coconut cream mixture into the whipped aquafaba, being careful not to deflate the air.
  5. Divide the mousse evenly into ramekins or serving glasses and refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or until set.
  6. Top with fresh berries and mint leaves before serving.

Notes

Use raspberries, blueberries, or mixed berries for variation.

Add lemon or orange zest for a citrusy twist.

Layer with vegan cookies or drizzle with dark chocolate for extra decadence.

Substitute cashew cream for coconut cream for a nuttier flavor.

Store covered in the refrigerator up to 3 days; do not freeze.
