- 0.25 cup coconut milk
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons onion powder

- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Cut the avocados in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a blender or food processor.
Step 2
Add the fresh lime juice to the blender to prevent the avocado from browning.
Step 3
Add the cilantro leaves. You can include some stems since they add flavor too.
Step 4
Carefully cut the jalapeño pepper in half, remove the seeds if you prefer less heat, and add it to the blender.
Step 5
Pour in the coconut milk to make the crema smooth and creamy.
Step 6
Add the garlic powder, onion powder, sea salt, and black pepper to the blender.
Step 7
Blend the ingredients until smooth and creamy. You may need to stop and scrape down the sides to ensure everything is well combined.
Step 8
Taste the crema and adjust the seasoning if necessary, adding more lime juice, salt, or pepper to taste.
Step 9
Transfer the avocado crema to a serving bowl and enjoy immediately, or store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2-3 days.
