Creton (Dairy Free)

Creton

I LOVE LOVE LOVE creton! My father used to make it often and it just makes my mouth happy. Spread it on raisin toast with mustard and do you have a treat!! (for the more boring option, omit the raisin toast).


Traditional creton uses dairy milk. This one uses rice milk or unsweetened coconut milk (by SO Delicious).

1 lb ground pork
3/4 cup water
1 small onion
1/8 tsp all spice or cinnamon and cloves
salt and pepper to taste

3/4 cold unsweetened non-vanilla rice milk or coconut milk


Combine first 5 ingredients and simmer in frying pan or pot until there is no more juice. Stir often.

Take pot off burner and add 3/4 cup cold rice or coconut milk. Using a hand mixer, blend until meat is broken up like a thick gravy (rice milk does not get that thick). Put in container and let cool before sealing. Cooling will help with the thickening.

Eat with Free Of toast!

  2. Taking out the onion and you are losing a lot of flavor. It cooks long enough the spices don't give much onion flavor.
    Making this as I write.
