Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Strong brewed coffee or espresso
- 2 yolks Egg yolks (from large eggs)
- 1 tablespoon Erythritol or monk fruit sweetener
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon Unsweetened almond milk (optional for thinning the foam)
Instructions
Brew 1 cup of strong coffee or espresso and set it aside to stay warm.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine 2 egg yolks, 1 tablespoon of erythritol or monk fruit sweetener, and 0.5 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
Using an electric hand mixer (or a whisk if mixing by hand), beat the egg yolk mixture on high speed for about 2-3 minutes until it becomes pale, thick, and creamy.
Add 2 tablespoons of heavy cream to the egg mixture and continue beating for another 1-2 minutes until the mixture has a mousse-like consistency. If you prefer a thinner foam, add 1 tablespoon of unsweetened almond milk and mix until incorporated.
Pour the brewed coffee or espresso into a serving glass or cup.
Gently spoon the creamy egg foam on top of the coffee, creating a thick, luscious layer.
Serve immediately. Stir the egg foam into the coffee as you drink for a rich, creamy flavor.
