How to Make Keto Hollandaise Sauce

This is exactly how easy it is to make your very own keto approved hollandaise sauce with only 6 simple ingredients:

• Prep your ingredients. Add the egg yolks, cayenne pepper, and black pepper to a high power blender.
• Melt the butter. Melt the butter over medium heat.
• Add the butter. With your blender running, gradually add the melted butter in a steady stream to the egg yolks.

Why Did My Keto Hollandaise Sauce Break?

There are a few common reasons why your hollandaise sauce may separate as you’re making it. Here are a couple of the most common culprits:

• Keep an eye on the egg yolks. As hollandaise sauce can be prepared by boiling the mixture, it’s possible to accidentally end up overcooking the egg yolks, which can cause them to break apart. Thankfully, this first tip is actually less relevant for this particular keto recipe because you’ll be working with hot, melted butter to heat up your egg yolks before emulsifying them.
• Try adding mustard. Another useful tip that can help to keep your sauce from separating is to add a single teaspoon of Dijon mustard in with the egg yolks. Dijon mustard can help to stabilize the sauce and prevent it from breaking.

How to Store Keto Hollandaise Sauce

The best way to store your keto hollandaise sauce is to transfer it into either an airtight container or a jar. You’ll then want to keep it stored in the fridge.

How Long Will This Keto Hollandaise Sauce Keep?

Hollandaise sauce is typically enjoyed while it’s quite fresh as it isn’t known for having the longest shelf life. This particular hollandaise sauce recipe should keep for up to 2-3 days as long as it’s properly stored in the fridge.
