Add the heavy cream, sugar, and vanilla extract to an electric mixer. Whisk on high (or use a hand mixer in a large bowl) for 2 minutes until it forms a soft peak and turns into whipped cream. Store and serve chilled.
Flavor variations
This is a basic whipped cream recipe without sugar. We use vanilla extract but you can make it with these other variations by substituting the vanilla extract for equal amounts of:
- lemon extract
- coconut extract

- peppermint extract
Sugar variations
You can also find in stores powdered sugar (confectioner's sugar) that is sugar-free and keto-friendly. You can substitute that for the monk fruit to make sugar-free whipped topping.
Tips for the best keto whipped cream
There are few trouble shooting issues that can happen when making homemade whipped cream that can easily be avoided. Sometimes the cream just doesn't fluff so make sure to follow these tips for the best keto whipped cream.
- Clean and wipe dry the electric mixing bowl out completely before whisking the ingredients. If there is any other liquid like water, then it will not peak as fluffy.
- Do not use a liquid syrup in place of the monk fruit. You can substitute the sugar with Xylitol, but don't use a liquid or it will be runny.
- I do not recommend stevia. Stevia is great for baking but can be a very strong flavor in a keto whipped cream.
Make it dairy-free
Want to make dairy-free sugar-free whipped cream? Use 1-2 cans of coconut cream in place of the heavy whipping cream. Chill the cans in the refrigerator overnight and then flip them upside down. Open them upside down and drain out the water then scoop 1 ¼ cup of the cream into the mixing bowl with the sugar and vanilla and make according the recipe card directions.
What makes whipped cream low carb
Whipped cream is made from heavy whipping cream and the cream naturally has 0 grams of sugar and 0 grams of carbohydrates. The carbs are from added sugars, so making this whipped cream with sugar-free monk fruit keeps it low carb, no sugar, and keto-friendly!
