Creamy Homemade Keto Eggnog – Four Ways to Make
1. Classic Eggnog
My preferred way to make keto eggnog is with cooked egg yolks making it super creamy (see recipe and video below for details).
2. Five-Minute Eggnog
Process all of the ingredients in a blender (whole eggs for creamy or just egg yolks). Serve chilled or with ice. It’s not as creamy as the cooked method but 100% fuss-free!
3. Classic Eggnog with Egg Whites
Follow the “Classic Method” as shown in the video below, or use the “5-Minute Eggnog” method explained above. When the eggnog is chilled, whisk the egg whites until they create soft peaks. Gently mix the fluffy egg whites into the chilled eggnog until frothy and well combined.
4. Alcohol-Free Eggnog
Simply use rum extract (to taste) and add 3/4 cup more almond milk or cashew milk.

If a recipe calls for raw eggs and you are concerned about the potential risk of Salmonella, you can make it safe by using pasteurized eggs. To pasteurize eggs at home, simply pour enough water in a saucepan to cover the eggs. Heat to about 60 °C/ 140 °F.Creamy Homemade Keto Eggnog
Ingredients
Instructions
Add the granulated Erythritol and whisk until creamy and frothy. Set aside.
Pour the almond milk into a sauce pan. Add the cream, nutmeg and cinnamon.
Bring to a boil over a high heat. Once foam starts to form, take off the heat.
While the milk is still hot, use a ladle to gradually temper the hot almond milk and cream mixture into the egg yolk and erythritol mixture.
When you have added about half of the almond and cream mixture, return everything into the pot with the remaining almond and cream mixture and cook until it reaches 70 C/ 160 degrees F (this will take 6-8 minutes).
Remove from the heat and pour into a medium mixing bowl (Optionally, strain through a fine mesh sieve to remove any pieces of cooked eggs and spices). Add the vanilla extract and dark rum.
Set in the refrigerator to chill. Store refrigerated for up to 3 days.
Enjoy!!!Notes
Using a spoon, slowly place the eggs into the saucepan. Keep the eggs in the water for about 3 minutes. This should be enough to pasteurize the eggs and kill any potential bacteria. Let the eggs cool down and store in the fridge for 6-8 weeks.Nutrition Information:
