Keto Sahlab Recipe

A warm and creamy low-carb version of the traditional Middle Eastern drink. This Keto Sahlab is thick, comforting, and made with simple ingredients like almond milk, coconut flour, and glucomannan. Perfect for cold nights or sweet cravings on the keto diet.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups unsweetened almond milk

  • 2 tablespoons heavy cream

  • 1 ½ teaspoons coconut flour

  • ½ teaspoon glucomannan powder (or xanthan gum)

  • 1 to 2 teaspoons powdered erythritol or monk fruit sweetener

  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

  • Pinch of cinnamon

  • Pinch of salt

  • Optional toppings: crushed pistachios, extra cinnamon, shredded coconut

Instructions

  • Pour almond milk and heavy cream into a small pot. Warm over medium heat until steaming, not boiling.

  • Stir in sweetener, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt. Mix well.

  • Slowly sprinkle in coconut flour and glucomannan while whisking constantly to avoid lumps.

  • Stir for 3 to 5 minutes until the drink thickens. Taste and adjust sweetness or thickness as needed.

  • Pour into a mug and let sit for 1 minute. Top with crushed pistachios or extra cinnamon if you like. Serve warm.

Notes

  • Drink thickens more as it cools. Add a splash of almond milk if it gets too thick.

  • For added flavor, try a drop of rose water or orange blossom water.

  • Store leftovers in the fridge up to 3 days. Reheat gently and stir before serving.
