When it comes to making and cooking breakfast on a ketogenic diet, we often think of many different recipes including bacon and eggs, egg frittata, ketoproof coffee, or just straight up fasting. We need a bit more variety, and while I have tried to give some, we still need more! Now, I know the pictures aren't amazing, but the pictures just don't do them justice. These little keto muffins are packed full of deliciousness - sausage, maple syrup, and a sweet pancake-ish fluffy muffin to encase all ...
Peanut Butter Pancakes
A great deal of you out there use the coveted Cream Cheese Pancakes from IBIH. I have nothing against her (she's an amazing cook), but I do have something against her pancakes. They're just not fluffy enough for me! I will say they make fantastic crepes but when I bite into a pancake I want to be ripping it apart and chewing it afterward. If you love peanut butter (and I think most of us on keto do), then you'll definitely love these. There's a couple of people out there that can't deal ...

Dirty Blondie Pancake Stack
For those of you who don’t know, today is National Pancake Day! Normally I’d be ignoring that fact, making a ketoproof coffee or some scrambled eggs, and calling it a morning. This time around, that is NOT happening – I’m making my pancakes and eating them too. I call these Dirty Blondie Pancakes, but they’re certainly far from dirty and definitely close to deliciousness served up on a plate. It’s a stack of 2 types of pancakes: Maple Pecan and Brownie Batter Chocolate Chunk! You really can’t ...

Almond Lemon Sandwich Cakes
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 Focaccia Bread
Bread, bread, bread. That's all that seems to run through some peoples mind where they're on a ketogenic diet. Don't worry though, this versatile and low carb focaccia bread will help you out. I normally don't bake much bread, because I don't really find I have any cravings for it. That being said, it does have a lot of uses, and it is especially useful for people that are only just transitioning to a ketogenic lifestyle. Hamburgers, sandwiches, toast, fried bread with bacon and eggs. ...

Almond Flour & Flax Seed Pancakes
A long time ago, I used to eat steel cut oat pancakes. I used to adore them, the chunky consistency, the full body taste, and the chewy texture. While these aren't as chunky, they came pretty damn close with the satisfaction. I don't like those protein pancakes or those cream cheese pancakes that turn out more like crepes. I want a PANCAKE and there's not all that much you can do to actually get what you wish on keto. I sought out an adventure and wanted to figure out a way to get a very low ...

Low Carb Macadamia Nut Brownies
I've been making so many sweets lately that I had to take a bit of a break and allow the leftovers to be eaten before making more. Being on a keto diet, it's hard for me to keep eating sweets, even if they are low carb, because I find my cravings start to come back after I eat them. Low and behold, everything is gone and I wanted to make something I haven't done in a while. I settled on brownies because I haven't really gotten around to making a cake, and I have only been making cookies ...

A Comprehensive Guide to Micronutreints
To maintain the health of your brain, muscle, bone, nerves, skin, blood circulation, immune system, and every other cell in your body, you need to consume an adequate amount of macronutrients and micronutrients. Macronutrients, primarily proteins, fats, and carbohydrates, are needed in large amounts, and you can learn more about them in this article. Keto micronutrients, on the other hand, are required in much smaller quantities (which is why we call them "micronutrients"), but failing to get ...

Low Carb Chocolate Brownie Cupcakes, ‘Nuff Said
I had just converted my mother to a ketogenic diet, and her birthday was coming up soon. I was scraping at the air trying to find something that was low carb, delicious, and would rifle her cravings away for any type of real cake. I remember a few years back, I had made soy bean brownies...right then and there I knew I had to make a cake from them. Luckily my local supermarket sells organic soy beans, so I headed over there and picked some up. I went online to search for some recipes, but low ...
