Coffee is my life! Hot coffee, iced coffee, sitting on the counter for 3 hours because I’m chasing kids around, yep, I’ll still drink it.
I started drinking coffee in high school when I worked at Dunkin Donuts. Honestly, its still my favorite job I’ve had.
Anyway, this job got me addicted to coffee and here I am now, craving coffee morning, noon, and night.

However, with cutting sugar and carbs, I had to drastically change my coffee order.
My at home coffee used to be 2 1/2 HEAPING tablespoons of sugar and Coffee Mate flavored creamer with a splash of coffee.
I guess you could say I was likely addicted to the sugary creaminess and not the tiny bit of coffee I would add.
On top of that sugar addiction, the creamer would cause me so much pain and cramping every morning. I thought it was just the coffee kicking in, but nope, it was the creamer. TMI sorry!
Fast forward and I have found the BEST keto coffee secret without the sugar or butter! 😉
The Best Keto Foods To Fill Your Pantry With
Keto Coffee Hacks
When I first started keto, I wasn’t sure how to drink my coffee without sugar and creamer. I certainly was not a fan of just stevia and heavy whipping cream like a few bloggers suggested.
I actually came up with my own concoction of a protein coffee – protein powder, heavy whipping cream, coconut oil, stevia, and coffee.
This was definitely a recipe that helped me tremendously when I very first started keto back in 2018. I would make this up real quick in my blender using Ideal Raw or Vega protein powder and head off to my full day of classes. It kept me full for hours!
However, this is a whole meal in itself and a little on the high side for calories.
I was on the search for just regular coffee that I could sit and have a cup with my husband in the morning. I didn’t want to spend more time than I needed to make up coffee.
At the time, all the keto Instagrammers were using sugar free Torani coffee syrups. These were delicious, at the time, but on the pricey side so I didn’t use them long. Still made for great flavoring, though!
Homemade Coffee Creamer
So, after searching forever to find the perfect cup of morning coffee that was easy and delicious, that didn’t involve a million expensive ingredients, or butter, I came up with my own homemade coffee creamer.
My Homemade Coffee Creamer has only 3 ingredients and takes less than 3 minutes to make more than a weeks worth of creamer. Yes, I timed myself.
This is hands down the best creamer I have made and used. Super easy, clean, and simple! You can find the full recipe here.

Sunday Morning Jesus Coffee
Now, I watch our church service from the comfort of my living room and I make a special cup of coffee that I call my Jesus Coffee.
Basically I just add my own homemade chocolate whipped cream to add on top! But I also just eat it right out of the bowl with a spoon too because – FAT!
Homemade Chocolate Whipped Cream
- 1 Cup Heavy Whipping Cream
- 1 1/2 – 2 TBS Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
- 2 – 3 TBS Swerve Confectioners Sweetener
Add all ingredients to a medium size bowl. With a hand mixer, mix on a medium to high speed until the cream has stiffened to form hard peaks. Basically until it looks like whipped cream.
