Keto Heavy Cream Recipes for Rich, Creamy Dishes

Heavy cream is in more of my recipes than I can count. It’s in my sauces, my soups, my desserts, and my morning coffee. Labels may round a small amount of carbohydrate down to zero, so use the carton serving when tracking; heavy cream still adds fat and richness with relatively little carbohydrate.

I buy heavy whipping cream (36%+ fat), not “whipping cream” or half-and-half. The higher the fat content, the better it whips, reduces, and thickens. For homemade whipped cream, I always chill everything first — cold bowl, cold beaters, cold cream.

These recipes all use heavy cream as a key ingredient — from creamy soups to decadent desserts.
