Keto Cheese Fondue

You can snack through a meal with this fantastic fondue featuring Gouda and Gruyère cheeses and keto-friendly “dippers.” If the fondue gets cold, you can reheat it in a microwave oven on half power for 30 second intervals, stirring after each, until smooth and heated through.

Instructions

  • Prepare your fondue pot and place over low heat, or if you’re using a dish, warm in a low oven or place it in a bowl and cover with boiling water, set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, combine both cheeses, the xanthan gum, and the garlic powder. Toss well to coat. Set aside.
  • In a medium, heavy-bottomed pot, over medium heat, bring the wine, broth, and lemon juice to a simmer. Immediately reduce the heat to low, then whisk in the cheese mixture, small handfuls at a time, until it’s smooth and creamy. Whisk in the nutmeg, then transfer to a warmed serving dish or fondue pot.
  • Arrange the “Dippers” items on a platter or serving board. Serve with the fondue and skewers.

  1. Where can I purchase the fondue set-up shown in the photo?

    We loved the flavor, however, the fondue was very thin and would not thicken up. We ended up adding more cheese and a bit of flour. It still wouldn’t thicken.

    • It’s important to sprinkle cheese in small amounts, slowly while whisking. Otherwise it will not incorporate with the liquid properly.
