Keto Strawberry Sauce

Low Carb Strawberry Sauce Recipe

Strawberries are one of the few approved berries to consume on the ketogenic diet. The fruit is an excellent source of fiber, potassium, and Vitamin C. This scrumptious sauce is the perfect way to add some extra nutrients into your desserts or sweet breakfast recipes. Many store-bought keto simple syrup brands boast added ingredients to aid the consistency or extend the sauce’s shelf life. Some recipes even include Soluble Corn Fiber which does not contribute any net carbs to the syrup but may upset sensitive stomachs. Other homemade strawberry syrup recipes use xanthan gum as a thickener. This recipe doesn’t require xanthan gum to make a thick sauce. Thus, it is so much easier and healthier to whip up your own version to enjoy with your favorite chaffle recipe or  keto-friendly pancakes.

Make It Thinner Or Thicker

The texture of this sauce is entirely up to your personal preference. If you would like a thinner consistency, add a little bit of water to dilute it. A lighter syrup consistency is excellent to use as a topping for pancakes or waffles.

For a thicker consistency, allow the sauce to cook thoroughly until all the excess liquid has evaporated. The sauce also thickens when stored at cool temperatures, so you can also toss the sauce into the refrigerator. We recommend using this type as a glaze for delicious cheesecake recipes.

What To Use This Syrup On?

This delicious keto strawberry syrup is fantastic because it is incredibly versatile. Serve alone as a dipping sauce or topping for desserts or breakfast meals. We love to drown our morning pancakes with this syrup, especially these tasty keto buttermilk pancakes. It also makes an excellent topping for fluffy keto-friendly waffles or French toast.

You may also incorporate keto strawberry sauce into a myriad of desserts such as cheesecake, milkshakes, vanilla ice cream, and yogurt parfaits. It is the perfect healthy alternative for sweet chocolate syrup as an ice cream sundae topping.

Storage Suggestions

Keto strawberry sauce can last in the refrigerator for up to five days in a tightly sealed container. You may freeze the syrup for up to two months if you intend to use it on a later day. In addition, the sauce will begin to thicken over time when kept at cold temperatures.
