Creamy Homemade Keto Eggnog (Cooked)
Nothing says Christmas to me like some creamy, boozy eggnog and I am so happy I get to have this deliciousness during the season even while staying keto.
This version is cooked because I don’t trust raw eggs and it doesn’t list booze as an ingredient because everyone in my family loves keto eggnog. All you’ve got to do to take this up a notch is add a cup of bourbon or your favorite dark liquor.
I make big batches of this because I also like to use some in my keto eggnog cheesecake recipe.
Cozy up to the rich creamy taste of classic eggnog without the added sugar.

Keto Eggnog
To make this recipe you’ll need:
- 12 eggs
- 1¼ c. monk fruit sweetener ( I prefer to use the golden kind for a deeper flavor)
- 4 c. coconut milk (a rich almond milk works too)
- 2 t. vanilla extract
- 1 t. ground nutmeg
- 3 c. heavy cream
Optional Garnish:
- Fresh whipped cream
- Cinnamon sticks
- Dash nutmeg
This makes 10 -12 cups depending on the size of your eggs and if you add any alcohol to the mix.

Keto Eggnog
Rich creamy, classic eggnog, without any added sugar.
Ingredients
- 12 eggs
- 1¼ c. golden brown monk fruit sweetener
- 4 c. coconut milk
- 2 t. vanilla extract
- 1 t. ground nutmeg
- 3 c. heavy cream
- Optional Garnish:
- Fresh whipped cream
- Cinnamon sticks
- Dash nutmeg
Instructions
Combine eggs and sweetener in a medium bowl and whisk until thoroughly combined. Transfer to a saucepan and stir in coconut milk, vanilla extract, and ground nutmeg.
Heat egg mixture over medium-low heat while stirring constantly to prevent the milk from scorching. When mixture reaches 160 degrees on a candy thermometer, remove from heat and slowly whisk in heavy cream.
Cool slightly before tasting. Add more sweetener or nutmeg, if desired, before transferring to an airtight container. Refrigerate overnight or until thoroughly chilled. Serve in mugs and garnish with whipped cream, cinnamon sticks, and/or a dash of nutmeg, if desired. Enjoy!
