Ingredients
- 3 cups Popped cheese crisps
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened almond butter
- 0.5 cup Sugar-free syrup
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup Swerve powdered sweetener
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Directions
Step 1
Begin by spreading the cheese crisps evenly on a large baking tray to make sure they are well separated and ready for coating.
Step 2
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the unsweetened almond butter, sugar-free syrup, and butter. Stir continually until the mixture begins to boil gently.
Step 3
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and continue to stir for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the mixture to thicken slightly.
Step 4
Remove the saucepan from the heat and immediately stir in the vanilla extract, Swerve powdered sweetener, and salt, mixing until completely combined and smooth.
Step 5
Carefully pour the hot mixture over the cheese crisps on the baking tray, using a spatula to gently mix and coat every piece evenly.
Step 6
Allow the coated crisps to cool slightly for about 2 minutes, until they are warm to the touch but not hot.
Step 7
With clean hands lightly coated with oil or butter to prevent sticking, scoop a portion of the mixture and form it into a ball by pressing together firmly. Each ball should be about the size of a standard baseball or as desired.
Step 8
Place each shaped ball on parchment paper to cool completely and set for about 10 minutes.
Step 9
Enjoy your keto-friendly popcorn balls immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
