Ingredients

6 egg yolks
1 cup sugar substitute see notes
1 cup water
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup pumpkin puree
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 whole cloves
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 cup unsweetened almond milk
1 cup light rum optional, see notes
1 teaspoons vanilla extract

Instructions

Prepare a straining station beside your work area by placing a deep glass bowl on the counter. Then, set a strainer on top of the bowl.
In a small bowl, whisk these together egg yolks & sugar substitute until combined. Set aside.
In a small bowl mix together the pumpkin puree, cinnamon and nutmeg. Mixing the spices into the pumpkin simply helps them distribute evenly throughout your keto eggnog.
In a medium saucepan, combine water, heavy cream, pumpkin puree mixture, and cloves. Bring this mixture to a boil over medium heat.
Turn off heat and temper the cream mixture into the egg-sugar mixture.
Then, add the tempered egg mixture back into the saucepan, stirring constantly.
Stirring constantly, cook on low heat for a few minutes but do NOT allow to boil. You want to bring the mixture up to 160 degrees without cooking the eggs in the mixture. If you start seeing floating egg chunks, immediately remove from heat and strain.
Remove from heat, strain into the container you prepared earlier.
Then mix in unsweetened almond milk, light rum (see notes for substitutes), and vanilla extract.
For the best flavor, chill 24 hours before serving. Store in your refrigerator in a tightly sealed container for up to three days.

Nutrition Facts

*Nutrition facts are provided as estimates only and are calculated using erythritol.

One half-cup serving contains approximately 21.7 Total Carbs, .2 g fiber, 20 g sugar alcohol, which comes to 1.5 g NET CARB.

Sugar Substitute Notes

Our favorite sugar substitutes for our keto eggnog includes BochaSweet, Lakanto's monk fruit blend, allulose, erythritol, and liquid stevia. BochaSweet has the closest taste to sugar. When using allulose, it is only about 70% as sweet as sugar, so we add liquid stevia drops until we are happy with the sweetness level.

Substitute for Almond Milk

You can use any milk alternative you would like, such as unsweetened almond milk, unsweetened coconut milk, or unsweetened macadamia nut milk. Check the nutrition facts on the container to be sure you have a low-carb milk option. Other options are to mix a half cup of water with a half-cup heavy cream or use the same strategy with full-fat coconut milk.

Substitute for Light Rum

If you want your keto eggnog to be non-alcoholic, you have a few options. You can substitute the cup of alcohol for a cup of water or any low carb milk alternative.
