Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Full-fat heavy cream
- 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 0.5 cup Powdered erythritol (or preferred keto sweetener)
- 0.5 cup Almond flour
- 2 tablespoons Coconut flour
- 3 tablespoons Ghee or unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Cardamom powder
- 2 tablespoons Pistachios or almonds (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the heavy cream and unsweetened almond milk over medium heat. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Add the powdered erythritol to the saucepan and whisk it in until it dissolves completely.
Lower the heat to medium-low and slowly add in the almond flour and coconut flour while stirring continuously to avoid lumps.
Add the ghee or unsalted butter to the mixture and continue to stir, ensuring it melts and combines thoroughly with the mixture.
Cook the mixture, stirring continuously, until it thickens and begins to pull away from the sides of the pan. This process should take approximately 15 minutes.
Once the mixture has thickened, stir in the vanilla extract and cardamom powder for flavor. Mix well.
Transfer the mixture to a greased 8x8-inch pan or a similarly sized dish and spread it out evenly.
Allow the mixture to cool for about 10 minutes. Optionally, garnish the top with chopped pistachios or almonds for added texture and flavor.
Refrigerate the dish for at least 1 hour or until completely set.
Cut the milk cake into squares or desired shapes before serving. Enjoy this keto-friendly treat!
