Almond Milk Hot Chocolate Recipe
This almond milk hot chocolate recipe is easy, creamy, quick to prepare and has only 3 ingredients that are low carb and keto friendly.
I’ve enjoyed hot chocolates almost daily through my keto journey, it’s the perfect treat to satisfy your sweet tooth, keep you full until your next meal and also add healthy fats to your day to help you meet your macros.
The 3 Simple Ingredients For The Easy Recipe
Here are the basic ingredients that you’ll need to for the easy keto recipe as well as plenty of ideas for ingredient variations to meet your own tastes and dietary requirements:
Almond Milk – essential for an almond milk hot chocolate is the almond milk itself! Make sure that you include unsweetened almond milk so that there aren’t any other added sugars.
Heavy Cream – I like to add in healthy fats by including a portion of heavy cream. If you’d prefer for the healthy hot chocolate to be dairy free then use coconut milk instead.
Dark Chocolate – include keto friendly hot chocolate such as 85% dark chocolate without any added sugar. You could also swap for sugar free chocolate chips if you’d prefer instead.
Extra Ingredients – you can go beyond the 3 ingredients by mixing a little stevia or your sweetener of choice through the hot chocolate for a sweeter hot chocolate or flavor with an extract such as a little bit of peppermint extract for a mint chocolate drink.
As for the toppings, you can choose to top your hot chocolate with an indulgent swirl of whipped cream or scoop of keto ice cream for an extra creamy, decadent comforting warm drink.
