Keto Gingerbread Hot Chocolate
This creamy and delicious drink definitely smells like Christmas and the holiday season. It’s warm with deep flavors you’ll love, but also completely Keto-friendly minus any unnecessary carbs. Adding some heavy whipping cream to the recipe will make this Keto gingerbread hot chocolate very creamy and will work perfectly with the remaining ingredients. Keto semi-sweet chocolate chips will melt perfectly and enhance the richness of this hot drink. If you don’t have Keto chocolate chips, you can easily replace them with any other unsweetened chocolate you regularly use on your Keto diet. A great idea would be to add a few drops of orange juice or use orange-flavored chocolate instead.
How to Make It
Step 1
In a small bowl, combine sweetener, cinnamon, allspice, and ginger. Mix well. Optionally, adjust the amount of spices according to your taste.
Step 2
Now, add the cocoa powder. Mix well again, making sure to break any lumps. The mixture should be smooth and fully incorporated.
Step 3
Add almond milk and heavy whipping cream to a small saucepan. Stir well and add the cocoa mixture, chocolate chips, and vanilla extract. Heat the mixture over medium heat until hot but not boiling.
Step 4
Transfer the Keto gingerbread hot chocolate to your favorite mugs. Optionally, garnish with some more chocolate chips. Serve warm.
