Kentucky Hot Brown on Protein Sparing Bread

Have you ever had a Kentucky Hot Brown?

It is the Kentucky Derby next weekend and if you want to celebrate with me, I suggest making my protein sparing bread, to make my delicious keto Kentucky Hot Brown!

A Kentucky Hot Brown is a traditional sandwich made with turkey, cheese sauce and bacon that someone mentioned they wanted me to create a Keto Kentucky Hot Brown. Since I always have a loaf of my protein bread in the freezer, I quickly got to work to create the BEST Kentucky Hot Brown recipe!

HOW TO MAKE A KENTUCKY HOT BROWN

Kentucky Hot Browns usually have bacon. To make my Kentucky Hot Brown, I used sugar free Butcherbox bacon. It is hard to find bacon without sugar and if you do, it is really expensive! That is why I order Butcherbox products! They also have NO SUGAR in their bacon, hot dogs or any of their high quality cuts of meat and wild caught seafood!  Click HERE to get sugar-free bacon!

Ingredients

  

0.25x0.5x1x2x3x

BROWN BUTTER CHEESE SAUCE:

• ▢ 1 cup unsalted butter
• ▢ 1 cup beef or chicken broth warm or room temperature
• ▢ 2 ounces cream cheese softened
• ▢ 1.2 pounds extra sharp cheddar cheese shredded
• ▢ 1/2 teaspoon Redmond Real salt

FOR THE HOT BROWN:

• ▢ 4 large eggs
• ▢ 1/4 cup unsweetened macadamia nut milk or hemp milk if nut free
• ▢ 1/8 teaspoon Redmond Real salt
• ▢ 8 slices Easiest Protein Sparing Bread sliced into 1/2 inch slices
• ▢ 4 tablespoons butter
• ▢ 4 tablespoons coconut oil

FOR ASSEMBLY:

• ▢ Egg battered Protein Sparing bread
• ▢ 24 slices Roasted turkey breast sliced into 1/8-inch thick slices
• ▢ 3 ripe beefsteak tomatoes cut into 1/2-inch thick slices and griddled until slightly charre
• ▢ 1/2 cups sharp cheddar cheese grated
• ▢ 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
• ▢ 16 slices sugar free bacon cooked
• ▢ Finely chopped fresh chives for garnish
• ▢ Finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley for garnish

Instructions

 

• To make the cheese sauce, place the butter in a large saucepan and heat on high for about 5 minutes. Whisk while heating. The butter will start to sizzle and fluff up. Watch for brown flecks (not black!) and remove from heat. This is brown butter. I LOVE BROWN BUTTER!
• Slowly add the warm broth, cream cheese and shredded cheese. Use a stick blender (click HERE to find)and puree until smooth. Taste and add salt if needed. Set aside.
• To make the hot brown, in a medium shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, almond milk and salt. Dip each slice of bread in the mixture.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of butter and 2 tablespoons of oil in a large healthified nonstick saute pan over medium-high heat. Cook 4 slices of the bread at a time until golden brown on both sides. Remove and place on a baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining bread.
• For assembly of the Kentucky Hot Brown: Preheat broiler. Place the egg bread on a baking sheet, place under the broiler and heat on both sides for 20 seconds just to warm through.
• Top each slice of bread with 2 to 3 slices of turkey and 2 slices of tomato, ladle sauce over the top and divide the cheddar cheese and Parmesan over the top of each slice. Place under the broiler and cook until bubbly and the top is golden brown. Remove from the oven, top each slice with sugar free bacon. Best served fresh!
