Keto Eggnog

Recipe and content provided by Tara Wright, Whole Body Living Cooking this keto eggnog will fill your kitchen with the scents of the season. The warm, comforting scents of nutmeg, cinnamon, cloves and vanilla will spread throughout the house and bring hungry smiles to your kitchen. While there are many variations of eggnog that use raw eggs, I wanted to stick to the safe side and cook the eggs. One benefit this brings is the eggs thicken up the eggnog beautifully.
