Low Carb Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Freezer Fudge

January 31, 2019 By faith Leave a Comment

Low Carb Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Freezer Fudge has delicious cookie dough flavor and texture. It’s perfect for keeping stashed in your freezer for when those sweet tooth cravings strike, but you want to stay on-track!

Me and cookie dough go waaaay back. My first cooking memories are of me standing on a kitchen chair so I could reach the counter to stir chocolate chips into cookie dough. I was maybe four. And like most kids, it would go: a chip for me, one for the bowl, lol. And then a fingerful of dough (because for some reason back in the 80s raw eggs didn’t seem to scare us as much?). Oh yes, I have very fond memories of cookie dough….

Low Carb Caramel Sauce

January 17, 2019 By faith Leave a Comment

This Low Carb Caramel Sauce has just 1g net carbs per serving and takes less than 15 minutes to make; you’ll want to drizzle it on everything!

Imagine sitting down to a decadent caramel brownie sundae. There’s a fudgy, rich chocolate brownie as the base. The brownie is topped with a generous scoop of velvety ice cream flecked with vanilla beans. Cascading down the ice cream is none other than this luscious Low Carb Caramel Sauce. A beautiful dollop of freshly whipped cream adorns the top. THIS IS KETO.

I’m not saying that keto is all about indulgences, because it’s not. It’s about quality fats, low carb produce, organic grass-fed meat and dairy. But sometimes a girl just wants to have her caramel brownie sundae and eat it too. And stay in ketosis….

Rosemary Vanilla Cranberry Sauce (Low Carb Cranberry Sauce)

November 19, 2018 By faith 1 Comment

Rosemary Vanilla Cranberry Sauce (Low Carb Cranberry Sauce) is sweet and tart with subtle notes of aromatic vanilla and piney rosemary.

I have a confession; I don’t really like cranberry sauce along with my turkey on Thanksgiving (I know, that’s crazy, right?). But I LOVE cranberry sauce. For me, its uses go well beyond an accoutrement for turkey on Thanksgiving dinner; it’s the perfect thing to keep stashed in your fridge for the holiday season!…

5 Minute Low Carb Hot Chocolate Recipe

November 15, 2018 By faith 1 Comment

This 5 Minute Low Carb Hot Chocolate Recipe is creamy, rich, and deeply chocolaty with complex flavor notes of vanilla and coffee.

As a kid, one of the things I looked forward to most about winter – in addition to snow days – was hot chocolate! There was something incredibly magical about spending the better part of the day sledding, coming inside only to thaw out our red cheeks and frozen fingers and drink cocoa, and then heading back out to brave the cold again.…

Low Carb Pumpkin Spice Gluten Free Granola

November 1, 2018 By faith Leave a Comment

Low Carb Pumpkin Spice Gluten Free Granola is perfect for stocking your pantry with the entire fall season.

If you’re looking for autumnal flair, nothing does it better than pumpkin spice. And if you want pumpkin spice in something other than a latte, give this granola a try! This Low Carb Pumpkin Spice Gluten Free Granola has rich pumpkin spice flavor and great crunch. I used flaked coconut not for its coconutty flavor (which is covered up surprisingly well by pumpkin pie spice mix), but because it looks similar to oats, which makes it feel like you’re sitting down to a bowl of regular granola.…

Low Carb Easy Pancake Muffin Recipe

October 18, 2018 By faith 2 Comments

Whip up this Low Carb Easy Pancake Muffin Recipe to satisfy your sweet pancake cravings without the carbs!

Pancakes are generally reserved for special mornings in my house. On the other hand, because you can grab them on the go, muffins are perfect for any day. It’s the best of both worlds when your muffins taste like pancakes…and are low carb too! These muffins have a moist, tender crumb and subtly sweet flavor with a hint of maple, thanks to the addition of a little funugreek….

Low Carb Chocolate Whoopie Pies with Keto Cheesecake Buttercream

October 11, 2018 By faith 2 Comments

Low Carb Chocolate Whoopie Pies with Keto Cheesecake Buttercream are a low carb remake of a classic childhood favorite.

One of the things I love about a ketogenic way of eating is that it’s fairly easy to remake just about any recipe into a keto version of itself. Childhood favorites and classic comfort foods are some of my favorite recipes to play with….

Vanilla Bean Low Carb Cheesecake Frosting

October 4, 2018 By faith 3 Comments

Vanilla Bean Low Carb Cheesecake Frosting is decadent and rich, with luscious cheesecake texture and just the right sweetness level, balanced with a slight tang from cream cheese.

There are so many fabulous things about a fluffy cream cheese-based frosting. Whipping cream cheese results in a light and ethereally fluffy texture that’s similar to mousse. In addition to luscious texture, this low carb cheesecake frosting has great cheesecake flavor with a perfect sweetness level. Using cream cheese in addition to butter adds bulk and stability to the frosting without the need for a ton of powdered erythritol (or powdered sugar). A thick layer of this frosting turns just about anything into a completely decadent treat….

Flourless Chocolate Cake with Caramel and Chocolate Ganache (Paleo Gluten Free Chocolate Cake Recipe)

September 6, 2018 By faith 1 Comment

This Flourless Chocolate Cake with Caramel and Chocolate Ganache (Paleo Gluten Free Chocolate Cake Recipe) is a fun twist on a classic candy: the turtle!

My inspiration for this cake was turtle candy, which is pecans and caramel dipped in chocolate. This cake’s flavor is deep chocolate and it’s sweet enough without being too sweet; its texture is light without being overly fluffy or spongy. On top of the cake I added a layer of vegan caramel made from dates and a couple other common ingredients. I made a quick chocolate ganache layer using cacao butter as the base for topping the caramel, but if you’re pressed for time you could melt a chocolate bar and use that instead. Additionally, a sprinkling of pecans adds crunch and nutty flavor….

Vanilla Low Carb Chia Pudding with Fresh Blueberry Sauce

Vanilla Low Carb Chia Pudding with Fresh Blueberry Sauce makes a nutritious, delicious meal on the go!

Vanilla pudding is one of those desserts that people seem to be very nostalgic about. Maybe it was a Handi-Snack tucked into your lunchbox or maybe it was a homemade from-scratch family recipe. Or maybe it was those boxes of JELL-O instant vanilla pudding. Whatever the reason, if you have a soft spot for vanilla pudding, you’ll want to try this low carb chia pudding….
