Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups Unsweetened almond milk (or any fat-free milk substitute)
- 2 whole Large eggs
- 2 large Egg whites
- 3 tablespoons Sugar-free sweetener (like stevia or erythritol)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
- 1 pinch Optional garnish: Ground nutmeg or cinnamon stick
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, egg whites, and sugar-free sweetener until well combined and slightly frothy.
In a medium saucepan over low heat, warm the almond milk while stirring occasionally. Do not let it boil.
Slowly add a small amount of the warm almond milk (about 1 cup) into the egg mixture while whisking continuously to temper the eggs.
Pour the tempered egg mixture back into the saucepan with the remaining milk, stirring constantly to prevent curdling.
Cook the mixture over low heat for about 12-15 minutes, stirring frequently, until it begins to thicken and coats the back of a spoon. Do not let it come to a boil.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and whisk in the vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and ground nutmeg.
Allow the eggnog to cool slightly, then transfer it to a bowl or pitcher. Cover and refrigerate for at least 3 hours or until chilled.
Before serving, stir the chilled eggnog and adjust sweetness or spice levels if desired. Pour into glasses and garnish with a pinch of ground nutmeg or a cinnamon stick for a festive touch.
