keto "nog"

I'm still working on this.

Heavy cream is considered keto because it's low-glycemic and has very little in the way of carbs. But because it's fatty, it's highly caloric, so ideally, you're not supposed to have more than 100-200 calories' worth at a pop, which really isn't very much (about 60 ml). I often find I can't restrain myself to drinking that little cream, but a thought did occur to me: Can I make a sort of keto egg nog?

Here's what I have thus far: I pour myself a mug of heavy cream. That's the base. In my quick-heating electric kettle, I put in a little water; it'll boil in a minute. Meanwhile, I put about 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon and a tablespoon of BochaSweet into a different mug, plus a splash of vanilla extract (I've also sometimes used banana extract, which I like). I pour a little of the boiling water into the cinnamon-Bocha-vanilla mixture and stir—enough to melt the BochaSweet granules and distribute the cinnamon with getting too many lumps. I then pour that little bit of water into the heavy cream and stir. Voilà—a nog-like "nog."

You'll notice there's no egg. The point of making nog this way, though, is to avoid all of the heartache that comes of separating whites and yolks, then making an almost-custard, then tempering the eggs... it's a lot of procedural nonsense that I'd rather avoid.

What I do have, though, is powdered yolk and powdered whites. (These end up in keto-bread recipes.) I'm casting about for nog recipes that use some proportion of powdered egg to see whether I can make a noggier-tasting nog. So there might be updates on this. Sit tight.
