Greek Coffee with Almonds

Greek Coffee with Almonds is a rich and aromatic breakfast beverage that combines the bold flavors of traditional Greek coffee with the nutty crunch of almonds. This low-carb delight not only awakens the senses but also provides a wholesome start to your day.

Ingredients

• Greek coffee - 2 tablespoons
• Water - 200 ml
• Almonds (sliced) - 30 grams
• Stevia or erythritol (optional) - to taste
• Cardamom (optional) - 1/4 teaspoon

Steps

1. Begin by measuring 200 ml of cold water and adding it to a small pot.
2. Add 2 tablespoons of Greek coffee to the pot, and if desired, add 1/4 teaspoon of cardamom for extra flavor.
3. Place the pot on the stovetop over medium heat and stir well to combine the coffee and water.
4. Allow the coffee to heat slowly until it starts to froth, but do not let it boil over.
5. As soon as it froths, remove the pot from heat and let it sit for about 30 seconds.
6. Return the pot to heat and allow it to froth again, repeating this process 2-3 times to achieve a rich foam.
7. While the coffee is brewing, toast 30 grams of sliced almonds in a dry skillet over medium heat until golden brown, stirring frequently to prevent burning.
8. Once the coffee is ready, pour it into two small cups, leaving the grounds at the bottom of the pot.
9. If desired, sweeten with stevia or erythritol to taste, and top each cup with the toasted almonds.
