Description
Keto Kiwi-Coconut Mousse Cups: A Creamy Delight!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup coconut milk (unsweetened)
- 1/4 cup erythritol powder (or any keto-friendly sweetener)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
- 1/2 teaspoon gelatin (optional, for a creamier texture)
- 2 ripe kiwis, chopped
- 1/4 cup unsweetened coconut flakes (for topping)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, mix together the heavy cream, coconut milk, erythritol, and vanilla essence. If you choose to use gelatin, dissolve it in a tablespoon of warm water and stir it into the mixture.
- With an electric mixer, beat the mixture on medium-high until it reaches a fluffy consistency, about 3-5 minutes, ensuring you stop before it becomes too stiff.
- Carefully incorporate the chopped kiwis into the whipped cream mixture, folding gently to maintain the airy texture.
- Distribute the mousse evenly into small cups or bowls for serving.
- Place the cups in the refrigerator for a minimum of 1 hour to allow the mousse to firm up.
- Just before serving, sprinkle the tops with coconut flakes and add a few extra kiwi pieces for a decorative touch.
Notes
- For a chocolate flavor, mix in 1-2 tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa powder before whipping.
- Swap out kiwis for other low-carb fruits like strawberries or blackberries for a refreshing twist.
