Keto Virgin Eggnog

You’ll find this Keto virgin eggnog recipe extremely easy to make and even easier to gulp down. What is more comforting than a glass of warm eggnog by a fire to heat up cold fingers and toes? Despite a couple of ingredient changes to make your eggnog Keto-friendly, the recipe is surprisingly very similar to classic eggnog you may have had before. You’ll be happy to make a big batch of this eggnog for a crowd, then serve the recipe to the kids and add alcohol later for the adults (if desired). The eggnog includes hints of nutmeg, clove, vanilla, and an optional rum flavoring. The texture is thick and velvety. Make sure you don’t leave yourself with an eggnog mustache!

Easily virgin or non-virgin

This eggnog recipe is easy to make in batches and serve to non-alcohol drinkers. However, you can just as easily add your favorite rum or bourbon to the recipe for those who do like their eggnog with a little heat. That’s right, this Keto eggnog recipe is just like any eggnog simply minus the alcohol. It can’t get easier than that, right?

Are he eggs cooked?

Technically, the eggs are cooked because they are heated at multiple points in the recipe. You don’t see any cooked eggs because you temper the eggs with hot liquids. This means small amounts of hot liquid are added to your egg yolks while they’re continually stirred so they never scramble. If you see or smell scrambled eggs, you’ve heated them too far.

Please note, consuming raw or undercooked meats, poultry, seafood, shellfish, or eggs may increase your risk of foodborne illness, especially if you have increased susceptibility (i.e., elderly, children, pregnant women, immunocompromised individuals).

Recipe Steps

steps 3

15 min

  • Step 1

    Make sure your egg yolks are clean of any whites before adding them to a mixing bowl fitted with a whisk attachment. Whip the egg yolks at a high speed for several minutes; perhaps 5-7 minutes. Look for light pale yellow and thickened yolks. Then, whip the powdered erythritol into the egg yolks, continuing until the sweetener dissolves and the eggs are again thick and pale.
    Step 1
  • Step 2

    Add almond milk and heavy cream to a medium-sized pot and begin heating it on the stove. Once the milk reaches a simmer, immediately take it off the heat. Turn your stand mixer back on to whip the egg yolks at a slow speed while you temper the eggs with the hot liquid. Pour a small amount of hot milk and cream into the eggs while they’re whipping, then gradually add more until all the liquid is poured in.
    Step 2
  • Step 3

    Whip the hot liquid to release some of the steam. Then, pour all of the liquid back into your pot. Return the pot of eggnog to the stove, and season the eggnog with salt, nutmeg, clove, vanilla extract, and rum extract. If you want to leave out the rum taste entirely, omit the rum extract. Continually stir and heat the eggnog over medium heat until the beverage reaches 150 degrees Fahrenheit, then set the eggnog aside to cool for drinking.
