    Chef's pro tip

    Always blend your keto coffee for that smooth, frothy texture. We know using a whisk or fork might sound like a good alternative, but they don't just work — blending perfectly combines the fats, giving you a creamy, delicious drink with no oily separation.

    What to Serve with Keto Coffee

    Pair your coffee with some delicious low-carb treats to make your mornings even better. Here are some of our favorite suggestions:

    • Blueberry Pancakes: Serve your keto coffee with soft, fluffy pancakes for an indulging breakfast.
    • Keto Frittata: Amp up your average breakfast by enjoying savory and cheesy frittata with the bold flavors of keto coffee.
    • Keto Chaffles: Light and fluffy chaffles made of cheese are the perfect pair for bulletproof coffee.
    • Keto Brownies: Rich chocolatey brownies make your coffee break feel indulgent and special. They’re great for a mid-morning snack or dessert.

    Storage and Reheating Instructions

    Storage Instructions

    • Store any leftover keto coffee in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 24 hours.

    Best Reheating Instructions

    • Reheat your coffee on the stove over low heat or in the microwave for 30-60 seconds, then re-blend or stir to restore the frothiness.

    Frequently asked questions

    Yes, you can drink coffee on keto! Black coffee is naturally carb-free, making it a great choice. Just skip the sugar and high-carb creamers!

    Keto coffee, also known as bulletproof coffee, is a creamy, sugar-free coffee drink made with healthy fats like butter and MCT oil.

    It’s called bulletproof coffee because it was popularized by the Bulletproof Diet, created by Dave Asprey. The drink combines coffee with healthy fats like butter and MCT oil.

    If you don’t have MCT oil, coconut oil is a great substitute. Use the same amount to maintain the flavor and texture of the coffee.

    Customize your keto coffee with additional ingredients like heavy cream for richness, a dash of cinnamon for warmth, or even a pinch of cocoa powder for a mocha twist. Adjust the quantity to fit your taste!
