Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup Almond flour
- 2 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon Baking powder
- 1/4 cup Granulated erythritol
- 1/4 cup Butter
- 1/2 cup Water
- 2 large Eggs
- 1/2 cup Heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 3 ounces Sugar-free dark chocolate
- 3 tablespoons Unsweetened almond milk
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium saucepan, combine the butter, water, and granulated erythritol over medium heat, stirring until the butter is melted.
Reduce heat to low, add almond flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder, stirring until the mixture becomes a thick dough and pulls away from the sides of the pan.
Remove from heat and allow to cool for a few minutes. Beat in eggs one at a time until fully incorporated, resulting in a smooth, thick batter.
Transfer the batter to a piping bag fitted with a large round nozzle and pipe 3-inch logs onto the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the eclairs are puffed and firm to touch. Let them cool completely on a wire rack.
For the cream filling, whip heavy cream with vanilla extract until soft peaks form. Carefully slice each eclair down the middle without cutting all the way through, and pipe or spoon the whipped cream into each eclair.
For the chocolate glaze, melt sugar-free dark chocolate with unsweetened almond milk in a microwave or over a double boiler until smooth.
Dip the top of each eclair into the chocolate glaze, or drizzle it over the top using a spoon. Let the chocolate set before serving.
Enjoy your exquisite low carb mini eclairs, perfect for any occasion!
