Keto Alfredo Sauce Recipe With 3 Ingredients – How to make the best easy homemade Low Carb Alfredo Sauce with Zoodles and without cream cheese.
Keto Alfredo Sauce Recipe
I like to refer to this homemade keto alfredo sauce recipe as my version of 2 minute noodles – but call is 2 minute zoodles and will help you stay on plan and achieve your own personal health and weight loss goals.
This low carb diet dish comes together so quickly and this creamy keto alfredo sauce has only 3 simple ingredients, yet tastes completely authentic and way better than store-bought alfredo sauces.
How To Make Keto Homemade Alfredo With Zoodles
The sauce has 3 core ingredients – heavy cream, fresh garlic and parmesan cheese. You can create a tasty low-carb diet friendly alfredo with just those 3 ingredients, and below there are some suggestions for adaptations to suit your tastes.
Start by getting all of your keto-friendly ingredients prepped. Spiralize zucchini into zucchini noodles, (You’ll need a spiralizer for that, here’s a selection of spiralizers on Amazon.)
Then, get out the parmesan cheese and grate it if it’s not already grated. Peel the garlic and get it ready and waiting in the garlic crusher to crush over the dish when needed.
Once you’re all prepped and ready, heat the zoodles in coconut oil or butter for about 30 seconds. Crush the garlic over the zoodles and give it a toss through.
Then pour over as much heavy cream as you’d like, Allow to bubble for a further 30 seconds, add the parmesan to create a cheesy gooey cream sauce to taste. Once done it can look like keto fettuccine alfredo. You can also add in an egg yolk or two to add another high fat ingredient to the pasta sauce.
There are loads of adaptations to this recipe. You could add chicken breast, use garlic salt or already crushed garlic, mix up the cheese options and add in any cheese you like for the cheesy flavor and even swap the zucchini noodles for cabbage noodles, Shirataki noodles or your favorite low carb noodle, low carb pasta or keto pasta of choice.
You could also swap the cream for coconut milk or almond milk and use dairy free alternatives for the parmesan to create a dairy free low carb alfredo sauce recipe made with basic ingredients that’s low in grams of net carbs.
There isn’t one best way to create your easy keto alfredo sauce. I haven’t specified the amount of cream or parmesan cheese, because it really depends on how creamy and cheesy you’d like your traditional alfredo sauce.
