So I know you guys loved my chocolate mug cake! I am starting a series over the next 2 weeks that will solely be mug cakes. It will be one full week of sweet mug cakes, and one full week of savory mug cakes. Keep an eye out because there'll be a new flavor every single day! These things are just awesome, super easy to make, extremely tasty, and best of all - they have great macros on them to match. They're like a fat bomb without the hassle of freezing them (and without the same taste every ...
Blackberry Chocolate Panna Cotta
March 5, 2014 by 8 Comments
I've been guest posting friendly as of lately! Not only was I featured on I Breathe I'm Hungry with the Dirty Blondie Pancakes, I've also been featured over at DJ Foodie! DJ Foodie reached out to me a long time ago, telling me that I was doing a fantastic job with the website, and to keep going. Well, I definitely took that to heart and continued to do what I do best - cook, break down macros, and take way too many pictures for the step by step process ;) Low and behold, I had to find ...

Keto Snickerdoodle Cookies
February 22, 2014 by 20 Comments
The taste of these snickerdoodles is just as I remember them. Classicly firm, sweet and melts in your mouth with a soft gesture of cinnamon and vanilla. These are the perfect cookies to warm yourself up to on a cold night! The smell alone will have your whole house gathered around waiting for you to serve up these delectable treats! I'm using homemade maple syrup in these, and I highly suggest you do the same. You can also add or reduce the amount of maple extract that you're using depending ...

Chocolate Curry Cupcakes
February 20, 2014 by 2 Comments
So I know off the bat that some of you won't be a fan of this recipe. The first bite was strange, to say the least. Though if you have an open mind about this (and I'm sure you will do if you make it) they really do taste awesome. The biggest problem here is curry powder. You have to make sure you're getting some decent quality curry powder. Regularly, curry powder is made of a blend and combination of spices including curry leaves, tamarind, coriander, ginger, garlic, chili, pepper, poppy ...

Double Peanut Butter Balls
February 18, 2014 by 10 Comments
You'd imagine from all the recipes that I make, that my favorite dessert would be something baked, something very out of the ordinary, or something difficult to make. Well, that's far from the truth. It's double peanut butter balls! This is one of my absolute favorite recipes - not only for taste and simplicity, but just for the pure joy of peanut buttery goodness that comes out of it. When I gained weight on a ketogenic diet, this right here was the reason. I used to make these things ...

February 14, 2014 by Leave a Comment
Happy Valentines Day to all my ketogenic friends out there! So, I know you've probably not made anything for your significant other, and now you're scratching your head on what epic treat to make. Well, nobody wants roses anymore - it's too easy, so put some work into it and give him/her something they'll really like! Keto-approved, of course. These almond lemon cakes are superb. I had some icing left from the Red Velvet Fried Donuts yesterday and decided to use it. Actually, they inspired me ...

Low Carb Vanilla Latte Cookies
February 8, 2014 by 29 Comments
I've been running low on ideas recently, and running even lower on things to use in my pantry. I know I haven't made a cookie recipe in a long time, so I figured I'd go down that road...but what ingredients to use? Well, I haven't made anything with coffee, so I figured that would be great! So, the outcome? Delicious Vanilla Latte Cookies that almost have perfect macros for a ketogenic diet! I ended up making 10 really large cookies from this batch (about 6 inches diameter), but you could ...

Lemon Glazed Spice Fritters
January 23, 2014 by 8 Comments
After going about making the Fried Cookie Dough, some people had let me know that they weren't getting the same results as me. It came down to using casein over whey protein powder (one is thicker and contains more xanthan than the other), so their dough wasn't turning out right. Others didn't want to use processed protein powders in their food - so I sought out to create something that uses neither protein or processed foods. I came up with fritters. Though the dough is a lot more sticky ...

Raspberry Cheesecake Cupcakes
January 19, 2014 by 14 Comments
These cheesecake cupcakes are quick and simple, but also highly customizable. I chose sugar-free raspberry syrup for this particular batch, but you can substitute the syrup for any flavor you like (or if you like plain New York-style, just use the vanilla extract)! My goodness, these cupcakes are decadent and delicious. I rarely cook them because I know I'll just sit down after their done and eat the whole lot of them! Luckily, at 2g net carb a piece, I can sleep soundly. ;) Yields 12 ...

Fried Cookie Dough Balls
January 18, 2014 by 6 Comments
I've been trying to find a way to make fried cookie dough for a while, and with almond flour alone the texture just doesn't come through. The batter doesn't get thick enough...and coconut flour is something that I don't like to use. It falls apart and becomes very dry. Protein powder (casein to be exact) was the key! Optimum Nutrition is one of my favorite brands for both protein powder and casein powder. Not to mention they make great multivitamins, vitamins, and other supplements. There's ...
