Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients

  

• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 cu unsweetened almond milk
• ¼ cup erythritol or preferred keto sweetener
• 2 tbsp egg yolks
• 2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder (for chocolate version)
• 1 tbsp vanilla extract
• Pinch of salt
• 1 tbsp chia seeds for thickening or texture

Equipment

• 1 Medium Saucepan
• 1 Whisk
• 1 Mixing Bowl
• 1 Measuring cups and spoons
• 1 Plastic wrap or airtight container
• 1 Serving bowls

Method

 

1. Heat the Base: In a saucepan, add heavy cream, almond milk, and sweetener. Heat over medium, stirring occasionally, until it is hot but not boiling.
2. Temper the Egg Yolks: In another bowl, beat the egg yolks. “Temper” the yolks by very slowly whisking in a small amount of the hot mixture at a time.
3. Combine and Thicken: Return the tempered yolks to the pan. Stir in cocoa powder (if using for chocolate) and whisk it continuously for 3 to 4 minutes or until pudding gets thick.
4. Add Flavour: Remove from heat. Add vanilla and a pinch of salt.
5. Chill and Serve: Divide among bowls; cover with plastic wrap (directly on surface of porridge to prevent skin). Refirm until ready to serve, at least 30 minutes

Notes

• Never pour the hot milk (or whatever you are using) into the eggs, and always tempered them, slowly, so that they do not curdle.
• Stir chia seeds or gelatin for a slightly firmer pudding.
• Substitute coconut milk for almond milk if you like even more richness.
• Keep stirring all the time so that lumps do not form and the mixture does not get burnt at the bottom.
• You can also sprinkle some sugar-free whipped cream or crushed nuts on top.
