    How do you like your coffee?  I am a cream and sugar kind of gal.    I love powdered creamer but I don’t like all the ugly ingredients that are listed on it so I have just actually just been using plain fat-free or 1% milk for years.

    Have you read what’s on the label of the store-bought powdered creamer?  Yuck!

    So I started doing some research and playing around with making my own and I am so happy with this 3 ingredient Homemade Coffee Creamer!!

    The coconut oil makes it extra creamy!

    Ingredients for this Homemade Coffee Creamer

    1 Cup Powdered Milk (or powdered coconut milk )

    ⅓ Cup Powdered Sugar

    1 tablespoon melted coconut oil

    If you like more flavored creamer then you can add a teaspoon of powdered vanilla or cocoa powder too 🙂

    How to Make Homemade Coffee Creamer

    1.  Mix together the powdered milk and powdered sugar.

    2.  Drizzle the melted coconut oil over the dry ingredients.

    3.  Pulse in a food processor for about 1 minute or until fine.   Or you can put it in your jar and shake vigorously.

    If there are any slightly bigger pieces, don’t worry.  They melt perfectly in your coffee. 🙂

    Store in a jar of your choice.

      I like my coffee with no sugar. Will the coconut oil blend in well enough without the sugar? Thank you

      I’m going to give this a try. I am currently big on coffee mate only because it has 0 sugar, my husband is type 2 diabetic. I have to agree with some of your comments due to creamer is getting expensive.
      Thank you for these recipes.

      I know there is a sugar-free sweetener that measures spoon for spoon like sugar. (The yellow one, or store brand knockoff. Cheapest at Walmart. I use it to make my own simple syrup.) That’ll work for the sweetener, but I’ve never seen instant dry milk. To the people that suggested this, and the vanilla powder, where did you find them?

        Non-fat dry milk powder can be found in most grocery stores. Its on the aisle where you find sugar, flour, baking soda, cake mixes, spices. Or you can buy it on Amazon.
