10 Days of Keto Thanksgiving: {Day 6}: Sugar Free Eggnog
The holiday season means eggnog is being in the grocery stores. I love it but the sugars are high and just too heavy for me. This recipe is sugar free and yummy. I hope you like too!
Sugar Free Eggnog
Ingredients
4 large eggs
2 large egg yolk
1/2 cup granular Swerve Sweetener (or 1/4 cup Swerve and 1/4 tsp liquid stevia extract)
1/4 tsp salt
4 cups unsweetened almond milk use hemp milk for a nut-free version
2 1/2 tsp vanilla extract divided
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
1/2 cup whipping cream use coconut whipped cream for dairy-free
1 tbsp powdered Swerve Sweetener
Whiskey rum, or brandy, if desired (you can also use rum extract)
Instructions
Whisk eggs, yolks, sweetener, and salt together in a large saucepan. Slowly whisk in almond milk until well combined. Using a candy thermometer, cook mixture over low heat while stirring constantly, until it becomes thick enough to coat the back of a spoon and registers 165F (this can take up to 15 minutes).
Stir in 2 tsp vanilla and nutmeg. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and chill for at least three hours and up to 2 days.
Just before serving, whip cream with powdered sweetener and remaining vanilla into soft peaks and gently fold into the egg mixture. Add 1 oz liquor or liqueur to each glass and pour eggnog over. Stir gently and sprinkle with grated nutmeg.
Recipe Notes
Use coconut whipped cream in place of the whipping cream for a dairy-free version.
Use hemp milk for nut-free version
