Keto Custard With Chocolate Recipe – How to make an easy low carb sugar free no bake dessert pudding that’s the perfect decadent sweet treat.
Keto Custard With Chocolate
This keto custard with chocolate makes a wonderful way to enjoy the old fashioned dessert that will satisfy your sweet tooth and chocolate cravings.
The best part is that the easy recipe comes together really quickly and you can enjoy the creamy dessert warm straight from the stove or allow to chill and then indulge over the next couple of days.
I love experimenting with low carb desserts and I’ve been enjoying adapting different types of custards lately to be ketogenic friendly. This easy version is pure chocolatey goodness and makes a welcome change to a vanilla custard that you may be used to.
You can serve the whole thing from one serving bowl or move to smaller ramekins or custard cups for the perfect individual dessert that you could serve at a special occasion or even Valentine’s Day.
Essential Ingredients For The Easy Dessert
Here are the simple ingredients that you’ll need to create the easy keto custard recipe:
Almond Milk – use unsweetened almond milk to ensure that the recipe is low carb diet friendly. You can feel free to swap for unsweetened coconut milk, cashew milk or any other keto friendly milk that you usually include in your diet.
Heavy Cream – use heavy cream to create a rich custard mixture. You can feel free to swap for heavy whipping cream, double cream or any other whole milk cream you like. Or, swap to coconut cream or another dairy-free option to make the traditional custard a dairy free dessert.
Stevia – is my keto diet sweetener of choice that I like to include in my main ingredients. Feel free to swap for monk fruit sweetener or any other sweetener options you usually include in your keto lifestyle.
Cocoa Powder – yes there are two chocolate ingredients in this recipe, each bringing rich chocolatey goodness to the creamy custard. In this instance, you can use cocoa powder or cacao powder, depending on what you have in your pantry.
You can also feel free to add in half a teaspoon of vanilla extract or a pinch of sea salt to further enhance the flavor of the dessert.
Eggs – whole eggs are whisked into the dessert mixture, making it really easy so that you don’t even have fuss with separating egg yolks from egg whites.
Dark Chocolate – use decadent 85% or 90% dark chocolate to make sure that the low carb custard recipe is as low in sugar and net carbs as possible.
Unsalted Butter – butter is added to create a silky smooth texture and add richness to the best keto custard. Make is dairy free by using a dairy free butter alternative.
