This time, I was prepared and ready to give the classic English toffee a keto and low carb makeover! English toffee, as opposed to traditional toffee, is thicker, more buttery and often can include nuts. Traditional holiday style English toffee often has a layer of chocolate, making it the perfect dessert or portable gift. It can sometimes be said that traditional toffee uses white sugar and English toffee uses brown. How to make easy keto English toffee Making English toffee is deceptively easy, provided you have a candy thermometer. Using one solves the issue of how to stop the butter and sugar from separating.
The quality of the butter you use makes a HUGE difference. I’ve used grass-fed butter and good quality traditional butter and they have been great. Some dairy-free butter will work too, but any of the cheaper ones tend to contain water and can affect the toffee. Homemade brown sugar substitute should be used. I cannot vouch for any other sugar substitutes. If you can tolerate sugar, table sugar and brown sugar will work.
Chocolate chips to top the warm toffee with and melt beautifully to form a gorgeous layer. Optional, but I love adding a handful of finely chopped almonds or pecans for some added crunch. Line a small loaf pan or square pan with parchment paper. Place some of the optional nuts over the bottom and set aside. In a small saucepan, combine your butter and sugar. On low heat, heat up the mixture, stirring regularly.
