Prep: 5Total: 5 minutes
Servings: 8
Ingredients
- Coconut milk
- Ice cube trays
- Freezer safe storage container
Instructions
To Freeze in Ice Cube Trays:
- Pour the leftover coconut milk directly into an ice cube tray. I recommend using a silicone ice cube tray with a lid so that it’s easy to pop individual cubes out of the container.
- Cover the tray with a lid (if applicable) and place the tray in the freezer to set overnight.
- Remove the frozen coconut milk cubes out of the tray and place them in a sealable freezer-safe storage bag. You may find the coconut milk cubes pop out of the tray easier after the tray has been sitting at room temperature for 3-5 minutes. Label the bag with the date frozen so you know when to use it.
To Freeze in Containers:
- Pour leftover coconut milk into a sealable storage container. I like to use a sealable silicone zip top storage container or snap-tight glass storage container. Make sure to leave plenty of room as liquid expands when frozen.
- Label the container with the date so you know when to use it.
- Store it in the freezer.
Notes
- Ice cube tray sizes can vary, but standard trays typically hold about one ounce in each cube (or 2 tablespoons).
-
Always blend your thawed coconut milk. Use a standard blender or stick blender to blend the milk right in the container.
-
Don’t plan on drinking thawed coconut milk. Use it in recipes that have added liquid ingredients or baked goods.
