About

Traditionally rich with sugar, this take on the classic lemon syllabub uses keto friendly xylitol to sweeten this decadent dessert.

Rich and creamy with a twist of citrus, this low carb dessert is so simple to make. Perfect for dinner guests or just when you fancy a little indulgence!

The recipe has been produced to fill 3 large ramekins, however this would work perfectly for 4 smaller desserts.

Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cup, fluid (yields 2 cups whipped) heavy whipping cream
  • 5 tablespoon xylitol sweetener
  • 1 lemon yields lemon juice raw
  • 1 tablespoon lemon peel raw
  • 1 ounce flaked almonds by belbake

Instructions

  1. Add the cream and xylitol to a small saucepan and bring slowly to a very gentle boil. Simmer for 2 minutes, stirring the xylitol into the cream as it dissolves.
  2. Remove the pan from the heat and add the lemon juice and half the zest. Whisk to combine.
  3. Divide the mixture between individual serving dishes and place in the fridge to set for 3 hours.
  4. To serve, scatter with flaked almonds and the remaining zest.
