This low-carb, keto-friendly version of the classic no-bake peanut butter eclair cake offers the same delicious flavors with fewer carbs.

Ingredients

Filling
  • 1 packet sugar-free vanilla pudding mix (3.4 ounces)
  • 1 1/4 cups unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter (no added sugar)
  • 1 container sugar-free whipped topping (8 ounces, thawed)
Layers
  • 1 package low-carb graham crackers or almond flour crackers (14.4 oz.)
Chocolate Ganache
  • 1 cup sugar-free dark chocolate chips
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1/3 cup unsalted butter

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Filling:
    • In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar-free vanilla pudding mix and unsweetened almond milk until the mixture thickens.
    • Blend in the creamy peanut butter until smooth.
    • Gently fold in the sugar-free whipped topping until well combined with no streaks remaining.
  2. Assemble the Cake:
    • Spread a layer of the peanut butter filling on the bottom of a 9×13-inch dish.
    • Arrange a layer of low-carb graham crackers or almond flour crackers on top of the filling, breaking pieces as needed to fit.
    • Repeat layering with peanut butter filling and crackers until you reach the top layer.
  3. Prepare the Chocolate Ganache:
    • In a small saucepan, combine the sugar-free dark chocolate chips, heavy cream, and unsalted butter.
    • Heat over low-medium heat, stirring continuously until the mixture is melted and smooth.
    • Allow the ganache to cool slightly before pouring over the top layer of crackers.
  4. Chill the Cake:
    • Refrigerate the dessert for at least four hours, allowing the layers to meld together and the crackers to soften into a cake-like consistency.
  5. Serve:
    • Cut into squares and serve cold. Enjoy the perfect blend of peanut butter and chocolate in every bite.

Tips

  • Cracker Alternatives: If you can’t find low-carb graham crackers, you can use almond flour crackers or make your own keto-friendly graham crackers at home.
  • Sweeteners: Ensure the pudding mix, whipped topping, and chocolate chips are sugar-free to keep the recipe low-carb and keto-friendly.
  • Chilling Time: Allowing the dessert to chill for at least four hours (or overnight) is crucial for the crackers to soften and for the flavors to meld together perfectly.
  • Optional Additions: You can sprinkle crushed nuts or add a drizzle of sugar-free caramel sauce on top for added texture and flavor.

This keto version of the No-Bake Peanut Butter Eclair Cake maintains the decadent, creamy texture and rich flavors of the original, making it a perfect low-carb treat for any occasion. Enjoy!
