1. Wellness Latte

A nourishing, creamy latte that’s perfect for starting your day with sustained energy and focus. This recipe uses our Vanilla Monk Fruit Sweetener to add a subtle, natural warmth without spiking blood sugar.

Ingredients (Serves 1):

• 1 cup freshly brewed coffee (or espresso for a stronger version)
• ½ cup unsweetened almond milk (or your preferred plant-based milk)
• 1 tablespoon heavy cream (for creaminess; use coconut cream for dairy-free)
• 5-7 drops Purely U Organic Monk Fruit Sweetener (50ml Vanilla)
• Optional: A pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg for extra flavor

Instructions:

1. Brew your coffee and set it aside to cool slightly if desired (hot or iced versions both work).
2. In a small saucepan over medium heat, warm the almond milk and heavy cream together, stirring occasionally. Do not boil—aim for a gentle simmer.
3. Use a milk frother or whisk vigorously to create foam in the milk mixture.
4. Pour the brewed coffee into a mug, then add the frothed milk mixture on top.
5. Stir in 5-7 drops of Purely U Vanilla Monk Fruit Sweetener, adjusting to your preferred level of enhancement.
6. Sprinkle with cinnamon or nutmeg if using, and enjoy immediately.

Nutritional Highlights: Approximately 100 calories per serving, low in carbs (under 5g net), high in healthy fats from the cream for sustained energy. The monk fruit adds antioxidants without affecting blood sugar.

Tips: For an iced version, blend with ice cubes. Customize with a dash of turmeric for anti-inflammatory benefits.

2. Nutrient Brownies

These fudgy, low-carb brownies are a guilt-free treat packed with nutrients. Our Caramel Monk Fruit Sweetener provides a rich, buttery note that elevates the chocolate flavor naturally.

Ingredients (Makes 9 brownies):

• ½ cup almond flour
• ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 2 large eggs
• ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted (or coconut oil for dairy-free)
• 10-12 drops Purely U Organic Monk Fruit Sweetener (50ml Caramel)
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• Optional: ¼ cup chopped walnuts or dark chocolate chips (85% cocoa or higher for low-carb)

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and grease an 8×8-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
3. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until fluffy, then mix in the melted butter and 10-12 drops of Purely U Caramel Monk Fruit Sweetener until well combined.
4. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring until a thick batter forms. Add optional nuts or chocolate chips if desired.
5. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
6. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean (for fudgy texture).
7. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then cut into 9 squares.

Nutritional Highlights: About 120 calories per brownie, 3g net carbs, rich in healthy fats and fiber from almond flour. The monk fruit contributes zero calories while providing potential antioxidant benefits.

Tips: Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days. Add a scoop of protein powder for an extra nutrient boost.

A creamy, energizing smoothie that’s loaded with healthy fats and nutrients for a mid-day pick-me-up. The Hazelnut Monk Fruit Sweetener adds a nutty depth that makes this feel indulgent yet wholesome.

2. Drop in 5-7 drops of Purely U Hazelnut Monk Fruit Sweetener.
3. If using optional ingredients like collagen or spinach, add them now.

5. Pour into a glass and serve immediately for maximum freshness.

Nutritional Highlights: Around 250 calories, 5g net carbs, high in monounsaturated fats from avocado and potassium for heart health. Monk fruit enhances without adding sugars.

4. Refreshing Infusion

A hydrating, zesty drink that’s simple to make and perfect for staying refreshed throughout the day. Our Unflavoured Monk Fruit Sweetener subtly enhances the natural flavors without overpowering them.
