WHAT IS THE KETOGENIC DIET?

If you haven’t heard of The ketogenic diet (often called keto), it’s a very low-carb, high-fat diet that shares similarities to paleo, Whole30, and Atkins. It involves drastically reducing carbohydrate intake, and replacing it with fat. When your body switches to burning fat for its primary fuel source, that’s when you hit ketosis.

While on the Keto diet you’re supposed to get at least 70 percent of your calories from fat, 15 to 25 percent from protein, and 10 percent from carbohydrates. You’re supposed to avoid all grains, legumes, root vegetables, fruit, (except berries) and sugar.

This Recipe for Gluten Free & Keto Broccoli Chicken Fritters is a cinch to whip up. They make a delicious meal or side dish and can be made with many variations. For a little extra flavour, you could add scallions, green onions or chives. You could also add feta or parmesan cheese. The crispy fritters can be served with any type of dip. I used sour cream, which was delicious but you could use a greek yogurt dip, tartar sauce or ranch instead.

Are you looking for some delicious Keto Breakfast Recipes? You’re in luck! I have some of my families favourite recipes to share. Our absolute fav are these Keto Coconut Protein Pancakes. I love that they’re so easy and quick to make. Another one of our favourites, are these tasty Keto Strawberry French Toast Cups. They’re perfect for impressing brunch guests or for spoiling someone special.

Recipe Tips:

– Let the fritters fully brown before flipping. If they break apart just press them back together with a spatula.

– If you like a thicker batter add 1 Tbsp extra of the coconut flour.

– The butter can be switched out for coconut oil or your preferred keto cooking oil.

– If making as an appetizer, make 12 smaller fritters instead making 6.

– For extra crispy fritters, bake in the oven after frying at 400 F, for 5 – 7 minutes.

Best Served with Sour Cream and Salt and Pepper.
