Sweet Potato is usually not a Keto Friendly vegetable. I want to recommend that you save this recipe for later if you’re just starting, or for a “cheat day” or if you are on maintenance like me and you’re not aiming to lose more weight. What I can guarantee is that this Keto Sweet Potato Casserole tastes amazing!
Keto Sweet Potato Casserole
Print Recipe Jump to RecipeThis easy Low Carb Keto Sweet Potato Casserole will become one of your favorite side dishes all year long.
A few things to consider:
*Do not use canned sweet potatoes/yams which come immersed in added sugar, use a real sweet potato instead
*Add the sugar free evaporated milk, you can also sub for sugar free evaporated coconut milk or just use sugar free almond milk. I’ve used the three options and had the same results. It all depends if you like the coconut taste or not.
*Make sure you have Swerve Brown, not a regular baking sweetener, as it will affect the consistency and taste.
*The cooking time depends on the oven, so I recommend checking the casserole with a toothpick to make sure it comes back clean, because you don’t want to over cook it. Sometimes it’s golden brown but not completely cooked.
Some Tips:
Choose two small potatoes instead of large ones. I usually make a larger batch to separate the real sugar batch for my husband and son:
Cut Sweet Potatoes after cooking them, to avoid the clumps:
Slowly add ingredients, leaving the evaporated milk for the end and add it slowly, making sure it’s creamy, before it becomes runny. You might need less or more of it, depending on what type of sugar free evaporated milk you’re using, so add it slowly.
Batter should look creamy like this:
I use the ramekins for individual size to avoid over indulging:
I do not add the pecan topping to all of them to give me the option to use a lower carb option, depending on the protein I’m adding to it:
Let’s check out my special ingredients, I never find them at local grocery stores, so I buy them from Amazon:

My oldest granddaughter loves sweet potatoes and avocados. She likes those two things better than candy (which she didn’t like at all until recent years, and now she’ll eat m&ms). I think I’ll make this for her over the Father’s Day weekend since her dad is bringing his sweet family to visit.
