Let’s talk about blackberries and raspberries!
Many fruits are high in carbs and don’t fit into a low carb keto plan. But the good news is that berries, such as blackberries and raspberries, are awesome keto fruit options. One cup of blackberries contains about 6 net grams of carbs and one cup of raspberries contains about 7 net grams of carbs. Both these fruits are low-calorie and low carb fruits which contain some very important nutrients. These fruits provide a source of folate, iron, magnesium, manganese, potassium, and vitamins C, E, and K. They are also a good source of fiber. It’s easy to incorporate berries into your day; and this smoothie is a delicious way to do this!
What other ingredients go into this keto blackberry raspberry smoothie?
The base of our smoothie is a combination of unsweetened almond milk and heavy whipping cream. This makes our smoothie rich and creamy while keeping the carb count down. You could substitute unsweetened coconut milk if you’d like. Just make sure it’s the kind from a carton, not a can. I use unsweetened almond milk that contains just 1 net gram of carbs per cup. We then add some ice to our smoothie. I used the Swerve brand of sugar for my smoothie. It contains zero calories and zero net carbs. It also tastes great! The addition of vanilla and salt round out our smoothie perfectly. Making this smoothie couldn’t be easier. Simply place all ingredients into a blender and blend until smooth. This makes about 7 cups so watch out as it may fill your blender to the top!😊
How do I make my own keto whipped cream to top this keto blackberry raspberry smoothie with?
It is incredibly easy to make your own keto whipped cream. And, once you taste it, you’ll never want anything else! When you make your own whipped cream, you can be assured it doesn’t contain any unwanted ingredients. You can also add more keto sugar if you’d like a sweeter whipped cream. I recommend chilling your bowl and beaters in the freezer for about 15-20 minutes before using. Then to the chilled bowl, add 1 cup of heavy whipping cream, 2 tablespoons of keto powdered sugar, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla. Beat your mixture until stiff peaks form. Stiff peaks mean when you remove the beaters, the whipped cream forms a peak and it completely holds its shape. If you’d like, you can also easily double this recipe.
