Monk fruit sweetener is the ultimate net-carb-free and keto-friendly way to enhance your low-carb recipes!
If you’ve been following the Real Balanced blog, you know how much I love Lakanto Monk Fruit Sweetener products! I use their granulated sweetener in virtually all of my fat bomb and dessert recipes. I also love their Maple-Flavored Syrup and Liquid Monk Fruit Sweetener. SO GOOD!
WHAT IS MONK FRUIT SWEETENER?
Monk Fruit Sweetener has certainly become a popular low-carb-, keto-, and paleo-compliant sweetener, and for good reason! Monk fruit sweetener is a natural sweetener consisting of mogrosides rather than fructose or sucrose. Because of this, monk fruit sweetener does not raise blood sugar, is net-carb-free, and contains 0 calories. It’s almost too good to be true!
Lakanto’s Monk Fruit Sweetener is the absolute best keto sweetener on the market. Since I began developing low-carb and paleo dessert recipes, I have tried and tested multiple low-carb sweeteners and nothing has ever come close to Lakanto. Lakanto Monk Fruit Sweetener tastes exactly like traditional sugar and leaves virtually no aftertaste like that of stevia or pure erythritol.

Could you recommend a pure monk fruit sweetener and give a measurement conversion to pure monk fruit sweetener? (We can’t use the ones with Erythritol due to severe digestive distress in our family.)

This pure monk fruit sweetener is one I’ve heard that people like. Maya from Wholesome Yum has a helpful sweetener conversion chart.

Is there a recipe for rice pudding using monk fruit sugar

Nicole says
I am making my moms Belgian pie I want to substitute sugar with lakanto with erythritol. How will it cook with heavy cream? Will it fully dissolve. Is it sweeter than regular sugar?
Sara Nelson says
It likely won’t fully dissolve in its granulated form, so I would suggest pulsing the monk fruit sweetener in a blender or food processor to powder it. Lakanto’s Monk Fruit Sweetener is the same sweetness level as regular sugar.

Am trying to avoid erythritol (sugar alcohol). Do any of these recipes use liquid Lakanto? Otherwise, is there a standard vs liquid Lakanto substitution ratio for baking? Thank you.

Sara Nelson says
Liquid monk fruit sweetener is typically only used in drinks (coffee, smoothies, etc). I would suggest looking into pure monk fruit extract, which is powdered, doesn’t contain erythritol, and has a conversion chart right on the container. 🙂

What is the equivance of liquid monk fruit to powder monk fruit! I love the liquid for drinks and coffee
Reply
Sara Nelson says
Hey, Norma! I love using liquid monk fruit sweetener in drinks, too! I would suggest using only 2-3 drops to start, then tasting. If you’d like it sweeter, add 1-2 more drops at that point. It’s very potent, so be careful to not overdo it!
