Homemade Low Carb Keto Eggnog

Print Recipe

A delightful low carb, keto-friendly version of classic eggnog that’s rich, creamy, and perfect for the holiday season.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups unsweetened almond milk (or coconut milk)
  • 1 cup heavy cream (or canned coconut milk)
  • 4 large egg yolks
  • ½ cup sweetener
  • 1 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup brandy, bourbon, or dark rum (to taste)

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, add the egg yolks and sweetener. Whisk until completely dissolved.
  2. Place a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the almond milk, heavy cream, nutmeg, and cinnamon. Bring to a gentle boil while stirring occasionally.
  3. Remove the saucepan from heat. Slowly incorporate the whisked eggs into the hot milk, whisking constantly to prevent curdling.
  4. Return the mixture to the saucepan. Whisk until slightly thick and creamy.
  5. Stir in the vanilla extract and your choice of alcohol, adjusting to taste.
  6. Pour the eggnog into a glass container and refrigerate for at least 4 hours to chill.
  7. Serve cold, topped with whipped cream and a sprinkle of nutmeg and cinnamon.

Notes

Store leftovers in a sealed container in the refrigerator for 3 to 5 days. Can freeze for up to 2 months. Stir before serving.
