Keto Hazelnut Mocha Smoothie is a creamy, nutty and chocolaty smoothie that provides the right balance of energy without adding to your carb count. The richness of coffee, nuttiness of hazelnuts and the creamy smoothness of almond milk combine to create a low carb coffee smoothie that tastes like something special but is perfect for keto diets. It’s a fantastic choice for the harried morning rush, post-workout refueling or taking that mid-afternoon slump head on. This smoothie on the other hand is sweetened with low carb natural sweeteners and unsweetened cocoa, and includes healthy fats as well, so you can feel good about eating this while also being left feeling satisfied!
The hazelnuts give such lovely depth of flavour as well as being a great source of fiber, healthy fats and combined with the coffee help to boost your energy and focus. If you’re searching for a yummy way to enjoy the taste of coffee and chocolate but still be in ketosis, this smoothie is perfect for you. The Keto Hazelnut Mocha Smoothie is also conveniently customisable whether that be with protein powder, extra nut butter, or even some whipped cream to make it an indulgent treat.

Ingredients
Equipment
Method
- Brew Coffee: Begin by brewing a strong shot of espresso or black coffee and cool it to room temperature. Cooled coffee is used in order to avoid the smoothie turning watery.
- Add the base ingredients: Add almond milk, cooled espresso, hazelnut butter, cocoa powder, heavy cream and your preferred keto sweetener of choice to a blender.
- Add Ice: Toss in a few ice cubes to add refreshing thickness and cold texture to the smoothie.
- Blend Until Smooth: Blend the mixture on high speed until it turns creamy, frothy, and lump-free. This step ensures that all ingredients are well combined.
- Serve and Enjoy: Divide the sugar free hazelnut mocha low carb smoothie between two glasses, add whipped cream or a dusting of cocoa powder on top, and sip your tasty Keto Hazelnut Mocha Smoothie at once.
Notes
- And use cold espresso, in order to not dilute your breakfast smoothie.
- If you lightly toast the hazelnuts first, they will have a much fuller taste.
- Add protein powder for a full meal replacement.
- If it’s not sweet enough, add some more sugar to taste.
- To make a dairy free version, substitute heavy cream with coconut cream.
