Recipe: Vegan Egg Nog

Uh.... I think I accidentally found the holy grail of vegan eggnogs! This is thick, creamy, and foamy. It's so thick that it basically requires booze to thin it down to a drinkable consistency. It's pretty easy to put together and does not require much in the way of speciality ingredients.  

This is an eggnog for true nog lovers!  

5 tablespoons flour
1 cup water
1/3 cup almond milk
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 tablespoons icing sugar
1/3 cup aquafaba (liquid from unsalted canned chickpeas)
ground nutmeg
booze of choice

Combine flour and water in a pan over medium high heat. Stir constantly to remove lumps. This mixture will smell like toasting flour and then start to clump together in clear-ish blobs. Stir consistently until mixture forms one sticky ball then remove from heat. Remove mixture from hot pan.

Combine 2 tablespoons of flour mixture with milk, sugar, and vanilla and blend together in a blender. Once combined set aside. 

Combine icing sugar and aquafaba in a stand mixer and mix until soft peaks form which will take anywhere from 7-15 minutes. 

Combine two mixtures in a mug and top with ground nutmeg and booze of choice. 

This recipe makes one serving but the extra portions of flour mixture which will keep for a few days in the fridge. 

I might work on this recipe a bit more and maybe try using some chickpea flour in the flour mixture to make the color a bit more 'eggy'.
