This peanut butter mousse is rich, smooth, and full of flavour. Made with silken tofu and natural peanut butter, it’s high in plant-based protein and has a light, creamy texture. Maple syrup and vanilla bean paste add sweetness and warmth, while coconut oil helps it set just right in the fridge.

It’s an easy dessert that tastes indulgent but uses simple, good-quality ingredients. Spoon it into jars, add a few toppings, and enjoy it as an after-dinner treat.

It also keeps well in the fridge, making it perfect for make-ahead desserts or packed lunches. Whether you’re after something sweet for dessert or a midday snack with staying power, this mousse covers all bases without relying on refined sugars or dairy.
