Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Heavy cream
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened almond milk (or any low-carb milk alternative)
- 3 large Egg yolks
- 0.25 cup Powdered erythritol (or another low-carb sweetener)
- 1 teaspoon Unflavored gelatin powder
- 1.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 pinch Salt
Instructions
In a small bowl, sprinkle the unflavored gelatin powder over 2 tablespoons of the almond milk. Let it bloom for 5 minutes while you prepare the other ingredients.
In a medium saucepan, whisk together the egg yolks, the rest of the almond milk, and powdered erythritol until smooth.
Place the saucepan over medium-low heat and stir continuously until the mixture thickens slightly, about 5-7 minutes. Do not let it boil.
Once thickened, remove the saucepan from heat and immediately stir in the bloomed gelatin until it dissolves completely.
Stir in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt. Let the mixture cool for about 10 minutes at room temperature.
While the mixture cools, whip the heavy cream in a large mixing bowl using a hand mixer or stand mixer until it forms stiff peaks.
Gently fold the cooled egg mixture into the whipped cream, being careful not to deflate the whipped cream.
Transfer the Bavarian cream into individual serving dishes or use as filling for pastries. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours until firm.
Serve cold and enjoy!
