Description
Try Keto Honey, a sugar-free alternative with the flavor of honey. Learn how to make it using bee pollen and use it in various recipes.
Ingredients
Scale
2 tablespoons bee pollen plus 2 tablespoons water
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup Monk Fruit sweetener, or choose an amount according to your own taste
1/8th teaspoon xanthan gum (optional)
Instructions
- In a small bowl add bee pollen and 2 tablespoon water.
- Let sit for about 10 minutes to dissolve bee pollen.
- Meanwhile, make the simple syrup.
- In a pot add water and Monk Fruit sweetener.
- Bring mixture to a boil.
- Reduce heat to simmer and stir constantly, dissolving sweetener.
- Keep stirring constantly.
- If you want the “honey” to be thicker, sprinkle xanthan gum or guar gum over the syrup, stirring constantly.
- Don’t worry if it clumps a little, as the clumping will disappear in the blending.
- Remove simple syrup from the heat. Let cool to room temperature.
- In a blender or Magic Bullet add cooled simple syrup and dissolved bee pollen.
- Blend until smooth.
- Transfer to sterilized jars and refrigerate.
Notes
- Use whatever sweetener and thickener you prefer. And add thickener according to the texture you like. If you don’t add the thickener the honey will be liquid form, like a thicker water. Or you can add thickener to make it more like a syrup.
