Posted by I can’t believe I just made this very successful Keto Cream Horns recipe! You don’t even understand how incredibly excited I am about this dessert! Last year, about this time, I made this non-Keto Easy Cream Horns recipe. I remember thinking how easy it was and how everyone loved it. Little did I know at this point in my life that just one month later from making that recipe I would be knee deep in my Ketogenic Diet research about to start my own journey!
Ok, don’t get weirded out by the way I made this recipe because I swear to you it’s amazing! I created a sweet version of the Keto Fat Head Dough recipe and used that as the base. I sweet dough mixed with a light, fluffy and sweet creamy center makes this recipe top notch! I promise!
Before I go on, I need to tell you that if you plan to make this recipe, you will need or order a set of stainless-steel cream horn molds. I could not find them anywhere local to me. Save the gas and the heartache. Order them online. I tried to create a frugal version by molding some foil in the same but it was a total failure. You might want to add disposable piping bags if your checkout if don’t have those too. The disposable ones make for easy cleanup!
INGREDIENTS
Crust
- 1 3/4 cup Mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 2 tablespoons Cream Cheese
- 3/4 cup Almond Flour
- 1 Egg
- 1/2 tsp Stevia Powder
- 1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract
Whipped Cream filling
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 Tbsp Stevia or Powdered Swerve
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- This recipe makes about 12 medium sized cream horns!
INSTRUCTIONS
- Start by placing 1 3/4 cups of Mozzarella cheese, Cream Cheese and Almond Flour in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat it on high for exactly 1 minute.
- Add one egg, stevia powder, and vanilla extract to the heated mixture and stir it until all the ingredients come together. The dough will be sticky.
- Allow the dough to cool for a couple of minutes before you handle it.
- Split the dough into two equal parts.
- Layout a huge sheet of parchment paper. This will create a nonstick surface for you to roll this dough out. Place one part of the dough onto the parchment paper.
- Lay another piece of parchment paper over the top of the other sheet of parchment paper with your dough in the middle of both sheets. The dough will feel a bit sticky but it will come together the more you start to roll it out and mold it.
- Use a rolling pin (or your hands) smooth out the dough over the top of the parchment paper.
- Use a pizza cutter and cut strips of dough long enough to cover the stainless-steel cream horns mold.
- Spray each mold with non-stick cooking spray to avoid sticking. (Update: after doing this a few times I find it easier to wrap parchment paper around the horn mold before wrapping the dough on. It makes life easier when you remove the horn and it comes out perfect every time!)
- Place each mold on a baking pan lined with a silicone mat or parchment paper to avoid sticking.
- Bake them at 350 degrees for about 12 to 15 minutes until they are a light golden-brown color.
- Allow them to cook before attempting to remove the stainless-steel cream horns mold.
- Start making the whipped cream filling while the cream horns are baking. Combine all the ingredients and use a hand mixer to mix it on high for about 5 minutes or so until the whipped cream becomes nice and thick. Once it’s done, fill a piping bag with the whipped cream filling.
- Once the cream horns have cooled, Fill the center of each cream horn with sugar-free vanilla flavored whipping cream.
- Top each cream horn with your favorite Keto friendly fruit option! We love to use blueberries, strawberries or raspberries!
