Prepare your keto-friendly pasta according to package instructions if using shirataki noodles, or cook your homemade almond flour pasta to desired doneness. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter.
Mince the garlic cloves and add them to the melted butter. SautΓ© the garlic until fragrant, about 2 minutes, ensuring it does not burn.
Pour in the heavy cream and stir to combine with the garlic butter. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Once the cream is simmering, reduce heat to low and gradually whisk in the grated Parmesan cheese until the sauce is smooth and thick.
Season the sauce with salt and ground black pepper, stirring well to distribute the seasoning evenly.
Add the cooked keto-friendly pasta to the skillet, tossing to coat the noodles thoroughly with the Alfredo sauce.
Continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes until the noodles are heated through.
Serve immediately, garnishing with freshly chopped parsley for an added touch of freshness and color.
