Mouth watering Keto Sugar-Free Pecan Pie Recipe: Sweetness Without the Guilt
NUTRITION INFORMATION PER SERVING
Calories: 533 | Fat: 54g | Total Carbs: 8g | Net Carbs: 4g | Fiber: 4g | Sugar: 2g | Protein: 9g
INGREDIENTS
1recipeAlmond flour pie crust(or coconut flour pie crust)
3/4cupButter
3/4cup Powdered Monk Fruit Allulose Blend(use this for a gooey, smooth pecan pie, the photos use erythritol and are less gooey)
1 1/2cupHeavy cream
1tspSea salt
1/2tbspVanilla extract
3/4tspMaple extract
1largeEgg(at room temperature)
2 1/2cupsPecans(2 cups chopped coarsely + 1/2 cup halves for topping)
INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (177 degrees C).
Meanwhile, make the filling. In a large saute pan (not a saucepan!) over medium-low heat, heat the butter and for about5 minutes, stirring frequently, until dark golden brown.
When golden, add the cream and sea salt. Bring to a gentle simmer. Simmer for15 to 20 minutes, until bubbly, dark golden and thick. The caramel sauce should coat the back of a spoon.
Remove the sauce from heat. Stir in the vanilla and maple extracts.
Let pie crust and caramel sauce cool separately for15 to 20 minutes, until warm but not hot. While they are cooling, you can either leave the oven on (you will need it again) or preheat it to 350 degrees F (177 degrees C) again when the 20 minutes is close to up.
Once caramel sauce has cooled enough not to cook an egg being added to it (warm is fine), whisk in the egg.
Place chopped pecans evenly into the crust. Pour the caramel/egg mixture over the pecans. Top with pecan halves.
Cover the edges of the pie crust with foil, leaving the center open.
Bake for about40 to 50 minutes, until the top is dark brown and the filling is set, except some bubbles on the top.
Cool completely, then chill for at leastan hourbefore slicing.

The Right Keto Bagel: Low-Carb Delights for Guilt-Free Mornings
NUTRITION INFORMATION PER SERVING
Calories: 360 | Fat: 28g | Total Carbs: 8g | Net Carbs: 5g | Fiber: 3g | Sugar: 1g | Protein: 21g
INGREDIENTS
1 1/2cupBlanched Almond Flour
1tbspBaking powder
2 1/2cupMozzarella cheese(shredded; must be either pre-shredded OR hard mozzarella, not soft "fresh")
2ozCream cheese(cubed)
2largeEgg(beaten)
Sesame seeds(for topping - optional)
INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (204 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Stir together the almond flour and baking powder. Set aside.
Combine the shredded mozzarella and cubed cream cheese in a large bowl. Microwave for 2 minutes, stirring halfway through. Stir again at the end until well incorporated. (If you don't want to use the microwave, heat the cheeses in a double boiler on the stove over low heat, stirring frequently, until completely melted and easy to stir.)
Stir the flour mixture and eggs into the melted cheese mixture. Working quickly while the cheese is still hot, knead with your hands until a dough forms. The dough will be very sticky, but keep kneading and squeezing through your fingers for a few minutes. If the dough becomes hard before fully mixed, is too difficult to mix, or is still sticky after a couple minutes, you can microwave/reheat for 15-20 seconds to soften it. In that case, wash your hands and knead again.

"Sunrise Crunch: Breakfast Granola Cups to Start Your Day Right
NUTRITION INFORMATION PER SERVING
Calories288 | Fat19g | Carbohydrates12g | Fiber2.7g | Sugar14.9g | Protein6.8g
INGREDIENTS
Granola cups:
1 1/2cups(170g)granola
1/2cup(70g)sunflower seedschopped (see recipe notes)
2tbsp(40g)agave syrup(or maple syrup)
2heaped tbsp(50g)sunflower seed butter(see recipe notes)
Pinch ofsalt
Filling:
1/4cup(60g)sunflower seed butter(melted)
Topping:
1/2cup dairy-free(90g)chocolate chips(or dark chocolate, chopped)
INSTRUCTIONS
I recommend measuring the ingredients ingramson akitchen scale.
Combine all ingredients for the granola cups in a mixing bowl and mix well with either a spoon or your hands. The mixture should stick together when you press it between your fingers. If it's not very sticky add a little bit more liquid sweetener.
Grease a cupcake pan or use a silicone mold. This recipe yields 6-8 cups, depending on the size of your cupcake pan.
With the back of a tablespoon, press the mixture firmly into the cupcake pan and make a dent in the middle of each cup.
Put a heaped tsp of sunflower seed butter into the center of each granola cup. Freeze until firm, about 60 minutes.
Melt dairy-free chocolate chips in a water bath (simply put the chocolate chips in a small bowl and place it over hot water). You can accelerate the melting process by adding 1-2 tsp of coconut oil.
Once the chocolate is melted pour it on top of the sunflower seed butter of each granola cup. It will harden quickly because the sunflower seed butter is cold.
Store in the fridge. You can also freeze these breakfast granola cups in zip-lock bags! Enjoy!

GLUTEN-FREE SUGAR-FREE FLOURLESS CHOCOLATE CAKE
NUTRITION INFORMATION PER SERVING
Calories: 349 | Fat: 34g | Total Carbs: 17g | Net Carbs: 5g | Fiber: 12g | Protein: 4g
INGREDIENTS
1 1/2cupButter
24ozSugar-free dark chocolate(chopped; use sugar-free, not unsweetened!)
1 1/2tspVanilla extract
1/4tspSea salt(optional - skip if using salted butter)
6largeEgg(at room temperature)
1/2cup Powdered Monk Fruit Allulose Blend
INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (177 degrees C). Line the bottom of a 9 in (23 cm) springform pan with parchment paper. Grease the bottom and sides.
Melt the chocolate and butter together, in a double boiler on the stove or at medium-low power in the microwave, stirring occasionally. Do not overheat to avoid splitting.
Remove from heat and pour the chocolate mixture into a large bowl. Use a hand mixer to beat in the vanilla and sea salt at *low* speed.
Beat in the eggs at *low* speed, one at a time.
Beat in the powdered sweetener, still at low speed. The mixture should be somewhat smooth, but a little lumpy.
Pour the batter into the lined pan. Smooth the top with a spatula. Place the springform pan onto a baking sheet to catch any leaks, just in case.
Bake for about25 minutes, until the top just starts to form a very thin crust on the edges only, and the internal temperature in the center via thermometer is 140 degrees F (60 degrees C). The cake will not look done, which is normal, so go by the temperature.
Cool to room temperature in the pan, then refrigerate overnight (at least 8 hours) right in the pan.
Remove the pan from the fridge 1 hour before serving. Pop off the sides of the springform pan and transfer to a plate or cake stand. Dust with additional powdered sweetener if desired. Let the cake reach room temperature before slicing.

Wrap It Up: 3-Ingredient Coconut Flour Tortillas Recipe"
NUTRITION INFORMATION PER SERVING
Calories: 55 | Fat: 3g | Total Carbs: 4g | Net Carbs: 1g | Fiber: 3g | Sugar: 1g | Protein: 5g
INGREDIENTS
1/2cupCoconut Flour
6largeEggs(up to 7-8, see notes)
1 1/4cupUnsweetened almond milk(up to 1 1/2 cup, see notes; can also use any milk of choice - use coconut milk beverage for nut-free)
3/4tspSea salt(optional)
1tbspUnflavored gelatin powder(optional - for more pliable, sturdy tortillas)
1/2tspCumin(optional)
1/2tspPaprika(optional)
INSTRUCTIONS
In a large bowl, whisk all ingredients together until smooth. Let the batter sit for a minute or two to account for the natural thickening caused by coconut flour. The batter should be very runny right before cooking - it should pour easily (add more almond milk and eggs in *equal* proportions if needed to achieve this).
If you are using the optional gelatin, add it last. Sprinkle it over the top of the batter (instead of dumping) and whisk as you do to avoid clumping. Then, add an extra 1/4 cup almond milk.
Heat a small skillet (about 8 in (20 cm) diameter) over medium to medium-high heat and grease lightly (use oil of choice or an oil mister). Pour 1/4 cup (60 mL) of batter onto the skillet and immediately, rapidly tilt in different directions to evenly distribute, like making crepes. Cook, covered with a lid, until the edges are golden and you see bubbles forming in the middle. The edges will curl inward when you lift the lid (about1-2 minutes). Flip over, cover again, and cook until browned on the other side (1-2 more minutes). Repeat until the batter is used up.

"Crunchy Keto Granola Cereal: Sugar-Free Delight"
NUTRITION INFORMATION PER SERVING
Calories: 278 | Fat: 26g | Total Carbs: 7g | Net Carbs: 2g | Fiber: 5g | Sugar: 1g | Protein: 7g
INGREDIENTS
1cupAlmonds
1cupHazelnuts
1cupPecans
1/3cupPumpkin seeds
1/3cupSunflower seeds
6tbspErythritol
1/2cupGolden flax seed meal
1largeEgg white
1/4cupButter(measured solid, then melted; can use coconut oil or ghee for dairy-free)
1tspVanilla extract
INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (163 degrees C). Line a large baking sheet, or two small ones, with parchment paper. (I used two 13x9 in (33x23 cm) cookie sheets.)
Pulse almonds and hazelnuts in a food processor intermittently, until most of the nuts are in chopped into large pieces (about 1/4 to 1/2 of the full size of the nuts).
Add the pecans. Pulse again, stopping when the pecans are in large pieces. (Pecans are added later since they are softer.)
Add the pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, erythritol, and golden flaxseed meal. Pulse just until everything is mixed well. Don't over-process! You want to have plenty of nut pieces remaining, and most of the seeds should be intact.
Add the egg white to the food processor. Whisk together the melted butter and vanilla extract in a small bowl, and evenly pour that in, too.
Pulse a couple times, mix a little from the bottom toward the top with a spatula, then pulse a couple times again. Repeat as needed until everything is coated evenly. Again, avoid over-processing. At the end of this step, you'll have a combination of coarse meal and nut pieces, and everything should be a little damp from the egg white and butter.
Transfer the nut mixture to the prepared baking sheet in a uniform layer, pressing together into a thin rectangle (about 1/4 to 1/3 in (.6-.8 cm) thick). Bake for15-18 minutes, until lightly browned, especially at the edges.
Cool completely before breaking apart into pieces. (The granola will be soft when you remove it from the oven, but will crisp up as it cools.)

MEAT LAYER
1tbspOlive oil(divided)
2clovesGarlic
1/2lbGround beef
1/2tspSea salt
1/8tspBlack pepper(or more if you like it spicy)
1/2cupMarinara sauce

CHEESE LAYERS
2/3cupRicotta cheese(whole milk or 2%)
1/3cupGrated parmesan cheese
1tbspOlive oil
Sea salt
2/3cupMozzarella cheese(shredded, divided)
INSTRUCTIONS
SPAGHETTI SQUASH
Cook the spaghetti squash in the oven at 425 degrees F (218 degrees C).
MEAT LAYER
Meanwhile, heat the remaining tablespoon of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and cook for about30 seconds, until fragrant. Add the ground beef. Season with sea salt and black pepper. Cook until browned (about10 minutes), breaking apart the meat with a spoon or spatula.
Stir in marinara sauce and Italian seasoning. Reduce heat to a gentle simmer. Simmer for about10 minutes. If it's done before the squash is ready, cover to keep warm.
RICOTTA PARMESAN CHEESE LAYER
Meanwhile, stir together the ricotta cheese, parmesan cheese, and a tablespoon olive oil in a large bowl. (The bowl should be large enough to add the spaghetti squash strands later.) Set aside.
ASSEMBLY
When the spaghetti squash is done cooking, take it out of the oven, but leave it on at 425 degrees F (218 degrees C).
Cut the squash in half lengthwise (if you cooked it whole and it is not cut yet). Place open side up onto the baking pan and use a fork to release strands.
Transfer the spaghetti squash strands into the large bowl with the ricotta and parmesan cheeses. Mix together. Season with sea salt to taste.
Stuff the spaghetti squash mixture back into the empty shells on the baking pan. Top with beef marinara mixture. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella on top. (If desired, you can create several thinner layers of each mixture, but I usually keep it simple with just one of each layer.)
Return the lasagna spaghetti squash boats to the oven for about10 minutes, until the cheese melts.
