Ingredients

  • 2 cups unsweetened almond milk
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup powdered erythritol or sweetener of choice
  • 4 large egg yolks
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon gelatin powder (optional for thicker texture)
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Heat the milk and cream: In a saucepan, combine the almond milk, heavy cream, and sweetener. Heat over medium heat until it’s warm but not boiling.
  2. Whisk the egg yolks: In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks until they are smooth. Slowly add a small amount of the warm milk mixture to the egg yolks to temper them, whisking continuously.
  3. Combine: Gradually whisk the tempered egg yolks back into the saucepan with the rest of the warm milk mixture. Add the vanilla extract and salt.
  4. Cook: Continue to cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and coats the back of a spoon (about 5-10 minutes). If using gelatin, sprinkle it over the mixture and stir until dissolved.
  5. Cool: Remove from heat and allow the custard to cool slightly. Pour the custard into individual cups or ramekins.
  6. Chill: Refrigerate for at least 2 hours until set. Serve cold, optionally topped with whipped cream or berries.
