Brandy Butter

About

This deliciously sweet and festive butter is our low carb take on a classic brandy butter. Our Keto Christmas recipe is prepared from unsalted butter blended with powdered low carb sweetener, brandy, and a hint of festive orange to create a rich and sweet Keto dessert topping. Perfect dolloped on top of warm mince pies or with a slice of low carb Christmas fruit cake!

Is Brandy Keto?

Pure spirits are a great option on a Keto diet as they contain zero carbs and spirits such as brandy can be enjoyed on occasion without the worry of knocking you out of Ketosis. As well as being a great zero carb beverage, pure spirits such as brandy and rum can be a great way to add warmth and flavor to your Keto cooking. Perfect for adding to Keto Christmas cakes, bakes, and festive butters!

Do I Have to Use Orange?

We have added orange juice to our low carb butter to add extra festive flavor to our Christmas Keto recipe. If you would like to omit the orange, then you can do so. You can omit entirely, or you can substitute for a little extra brandy in its place. Please be sure to adjust your macros to account for any changes made to the recipe.

Ingredients

5 ounce butter, unsalted
2 tablespoon brandy
2 tablespoon orange juice
⅓ cup 100% pure erythritol by now
½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

Add the butter, erythritol and vanilla to a food processor. Blend the mixture together well to combine. The butter should be soft and creamy.
Add the orange juice a tablespoon at a time and blend into the butter. Add the brandy a tablespoon at a time and blend again until smooth and well combined. The butter will be soft and slightly runny at this stage. Taste and add more brandy, orange or sweetener as desired.
Transfer the butter mixture to a bowl. Cover and place in the fridge for 4 hours or until firmed. Use the butter as a topping for your favorite Keto Christmas dessert recipes.
