I'm really excited about this pie! Pecan pie is my all time favorite and after lots of searching I thought I was going to have to miss out this Thanksgiving. I had specific ingredients in mind and wasn't sure if it would work. Thankfully, it all came together in the end. Please note: I used LC-Sweet Natural for this recipe. Please be sure to see notes at the bottom of this post for information about using other sweeteners. I really like this pie crust. I think it could easily pass for a ...

I've been seeing more and more people on the keto diet posting their recipes for fat bombs. I decided to jump on the bandwagon and throw mine up too! Since it's Fall, I decided a little bit of allspice won't hurt - I love it at this time a year. Talk about quick and easy, this recipe combines chocolate and peanut butter - one of the best combinations in existence. It practically makes my mouth water every time I think of it. Add in a dash of allspice, and you've got yourself a tasty treat ...

1 Minute Molten Chocolate Brownie
While it's a rare occasion, I might still have the macros left for a protein-heavy dessert. Or, if I'm hungry midday and want a higher protein option to pair with something fatty, this does a great job. Yep, it's made with protein powder! We're aiming for a molten consistency here, so we want to under cook the cake a little bit. Imagine cake with a bit of melted ice cream on the side - that's what we want! There’s a ton of things you can do to make this exactly what you want – add cinnamon, ...

Keto Recipe: Chocolate Peanut Butter Ice Cream
Call it a fat bomb if you will, but I'll call it my temptation atomic bomb. Chocolatey, peanut-buttery, rich, and purely delicious. This is the keto ice cream that I always make when I am having a craving for something sweet. All that fat-filled, creamy richness will fill you up in no time and have your sweet tooth put to sleep in even less. We're going to use cottage cheese to obtain the creaminess that ice cream is known for, but with only a fraction of the carbs. Cottage cheese!? THAT ...

Delicious Chocolate Keto Brownies

Keto Recipe: Delicious Chocolate Donuts
All these posts about treats just make me want more! Here's another favorite of mine that ended up being a daily affair, and a staple in my diet. Two good things at once? It almost seems too good to be true - but it's not. These chocolate donuts seriously pack a punch in taste, nutrition, and the guilt. Made from protein powder, you'd expect a consistency to that of a piece of cardboard but it's the secret of egg whites that really take it to a whole new level. Each bite you take will actually ...
