Keto Egg Fast Café Custard

Make this dessert for one and meet your egg fasting needs! This Keto egg fast custard is hardly any different from traditional baked custard, except for the Keto-friendly sweetener substitution. A sweetened vanilla custard gets a hint of coffee for a French café flavor. If you like a stronger coffee taste, you can either brew an extra-strong coffee or add a drop of coffee-flavored extract. You may chill the custard overnight if you prefer a cool Keto dessert, but this recipe is best to prepare at the same time you want to enjoy it. Since the custard is high in fat, make sure you’re not going over your fat macros while on the egg fast diet. However, remember that fat is what fuels you on the Keto diet, so high-fat recipes are important in transitioning your metabolism to ketosis.

Special Note About The Coffee

It’s very important to make sure the coffee is cooled before including it in your custard mix. If the coffee is hot, it will begin to cook the egg. This results in little pieces of cooked egg in the custard instead of a smooth, creamy dessert. Stirring the custard mixture as your pour the coffee in will also help prevent the eggs from cooking.

What Is A Ramekin?

A ramekin is usually made of porcelain or ceramic stoneware so it can cook in your oven. Ramekins are made for single-servings of baked items, like custards and souffles. If you don’t own a ramekin, they can be purchased online or in kitchen and bakeware stores. If you own other porcelain or ceramic dishes, you may use these to bake your custard so long as they state they are oven-safe.
