Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 0.5 cup Erythritol
- 1 cup Full-fat coconut milk
- 2 tablespoons Ghee (clarified butter)
- 0.5 teaspoon Cardamom powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Rose water
- 2 tablespoons Sliced almonds
- 2 tablespoons Desiccated coconut
- 1 pinch Salt
Instructions
In a medium-sized bowl, combine the almond flour and a pinch of salt. Set aside.
In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the erythritol and coconut milk. Stir continuously until the erythritol is completely dissolved.
Add the ghee to the saucepan and mix well. Allow the mixture to come to a gentle simmer.
Gradually add the almond flour mixture to the saucepan, stirring continuously to avoid any lumps.
Continue cooking the mixture over low heat, stirring often, until it thickens and starts to pull away from the sides of the pan. This should take about 10-15 minutes.
Add the cardamom powder and rose water to the mixture and stir thoroughly.
Remove the saucepan from heat and let the mixture cool slightly.
Once cool enough to handle, divide the mixture into 8 equal portions. Roll each portion into a smooth oval shape.
Spread the sliced almonds and desiccated coconut on a plate. Roll each shaped Chum Chum into the mixture to coat them evenly with the almonds and coconut.
Transfer the Keto Chum Chum to a plate and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to set.
Serve cold and enjoy your delightful keto-friendly sweet treat!
