Classic praline
A source of healthy fats and fiber, almonds support heart health and blood sugar levels. Erythritol provides sweetness without calories, while vanilla adds a pleasant aroma. Perfect for a keto snack.
Praline is a sweet treat traditionally made from caramelized nuts and sugar.
In its classic form, praline includes roasted nuts (such as almonds, hazelnuts, or pecans) mixed with caramelized sugar, which are then ground into fine crumbs or paste. Praline is often used in pastries, to fill chocolates, or as an addition to desserts.
However, traditional praline contains a high amount of sugar, making it unsuitable for a keto diet. If you want to make a keto-friendly praline, you can substitute sugar with sweeteners like erythritol or stevia and use low-carb nuts such as almonds or hazelnuts.
Ingredients:
- Nuts (almonds or hazelnuts) (1 cup)
- Erythritol (1/2 cup)
- Water (1/4 cup)
- Vanilla extract (1 teaspoon)
- Pinch of salt
Instructions:
Roast the nuts in a dry skillet until golden brown, then set aside.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine erythritol (1/2 cup) and water (1/4 cup). Stir constantly until the erythritol is completely dissolved and the mixture starts to caramelize.
Add the vanilla extract (1 teaspoon) and a pinch of salt, continue stirring.
Add the roasted nuts to the caramel mixture and mix thoroughly to ensure the nuts are evenly coated.
Spread the nuts on parchment paper and let them cool.
Once cooled, grind the nuts in a blender into fine crumbs or paste, depending on your preference.
