Let’s dive into how you can create this indulgent delight right in your own kitchen.
Why a Keto Version?
Regular caramel lattes are typically loaded with sugar, which can disrupt any efforts to maintain a state of ketosis. By using ingredients that are low in carbs and sugar-free, this recipe ensures you can enjoy the flavors you love without compromising your dietary needs.
Ingredients You’ll Need
- 1 cup of brewed espresso or strong coffee – The more robust, the better for that deep coffee flavor.
- 1 cup of unsweetened almond milk – Or any other low-carb milk alternative like coconut or cashew milk.
- 2 tablespoons of sugar-free caramel syrup – Look for a syrup that uses sweeteners like erythritol, stevia, or monk fruit.
- 1 tablespoon of heavy cream – This adds to the creamy texture without adding carbs.
- Whipped cream – Opt for a sugar-free version or make your own from heavy whipping cream.
- A pinch of salt – To enhance the caramel flavor.
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Prepare the Coffee
Brew one cup of strong coffee or espresso, depending on how robust you like your latte. Strong brewing will form the base of your drink and give it that necessary coffee kick.
- Warm and Flavor the Milk
In a small saucepan, gently heat the almond milk, but do not let it boil. Stir in the sugar-free caramel syrup and a pinch of salt. This combination will infuse your milk with a delicious caramel flavor that’s completely keto-friendly.
- Froth the Milk
Once your flavored milk is warm, use a milk frother to create a light, creamy froth. If you don’t have a frother, a blender or even a whisk can work, though you may need to put in a bit more effort to get the right texture.
- Assemble Your Latte
Pour the brewed coffee into a large mug. Gently add the frothed milk over the coffee, allowing it to blend naturally with the coffee while keeping some of the foam on top.
- Add Finishing Touches
Top with a dollop of whipped cream. Drizzle some additional sugar-free caramel syrup over the whipped cream for an extra touch of indulgence.
- Serve and Enjoy
Your Keto Caramel Latte is ready to be enjoyed! Sip this luxurious concoction and relish in the fact that it’s tailor-made for your keto regimen.
