Keto Garlic Butter Croutons

May 19, 2019 by officially gluten free 9 Comments

These Delicious Homemade Gluten Free & Keto Garlic Butter Croutons are Made with Easy to make Fathead dough that’s Drenched in Garlic Butter, then Slowly Baked to Perfection. They add the perfect  Tasty Crunch to a Low Carb Salad or Soup.

Keto Garlic Butter Croutons

How Do You Make Keto Garlic Butter Croutons?

To make these Tasty Keto Garlic Butter Croutons, you start by melting the shredded mozzarella and the cream cheese in a frying pan over medium heat. Remove from the heat, then stir the melted cheeses until they’re well combined.

Keto Garlic Butter Croutons

Using a mixing bowl, add the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, xanthan gum and eggs to the cheese mixture. Mix until very well combined. Then, between 2 pieces of parchment paper press the dough into a rectangle. Remove the top piece of parchment paper, then brush with 2 tbsp of the melted butter. Sprinkle with 1 tsp of garlic powder. Bake for 8 – 10 minutes, or until golden brown.

Keto Garlic Butter Croutons

Remove from the oven, then cut into 1/4 ” squares. Over medium heat, melt the remaining butter in a large frying pan. Add the remaining garlic powder to the melted butter, then place the bread squares into  the pan. Stir until all the pieces are well coated with butter. Brown for approximately 5 minutes, stirring as it cooks.

Spread a fresh piece of parchment paper on top of a cookie sheet. Then spread the croutons evenly on the pan. Leave as much space between them as possible. Bake for 16 – 18 minutes, or until the croutons are golden brown and crunchy.

WHAT IS THE KETOGENIC DIET?

The ketogenic diet (often called keto) is 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.

Keto Garlic Butter Croutons

This easy Keto Garlic Butter Crouton Recipe can be whipped up in under 30 minutes. Croutons have always been my favourite part of Caesar Salad. I’ve gone years without them and I’ve missed their delicious crunchiness… So I decided to make some with fathead dough. I’m glad I did because they’ve turned out perfect every time and I haven’t had a salad without since.

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.

Keto Garlic Butter Croutons

Recipe Notes:

– Store on the counter uncovered for 1 – 2 days, then they can be stored in a container or zip lock bag for up to 1 week after that.

– Melting the shredded mozzarella and the cream cheese in a microwave depends on how powerful you microwave is. My rule of thumb is to melt the cheese in increments of 30 seconds and stir. I did 2 30 seconds and an extra 15.

– When making the fathead dough it feels like it’s going to be too wet at first but if you keep mixing it, it thickens. It’s important for it to be mix very well.

– You can add some extra flavour to the croutons by mixing in a little basil, rosemary, oregano or parsley with the garlic powder.

Keto Coconut Protein Pancakes

Recipe Notes:

  • I use a non sick pan that isn’t oiled because I like the texture it gives the pancakes. If you let them cook enough before flipping and your pan has a good non-stick coating you shouldn’t need any oil. They are a little delicate so, If you’re a novice cook or your not worried about how they look, feel free to grease your pan with a little butter or coconut oil.
  • The recipe can be made with many variations. You can try adding some Strawberries, Blueberries or Raspberries or even some Low Carb Chocolate Chips.
  • This batter recipe also makes an amazing Keto Waffle or Keto Vanilla Cake Pop. 
  • The protein powder can be switched out for more coconut flour, psyllium husk or almond flour but you may want to add a bit of sweetener to the batter.
  • I use Kaizan Natural Vanilla Bean Protein Powder which has 24 g of Protein per 1/3 of a cup.
  • If you’re keto and want to add a little extra fat to this dish. Try serving with extra butter and sugar free whipped cream or no sugar added peanut butter or cream cheese.
  • Serve with your favorite low carb syrup, sugar free whipped cream and berries or no sugar added peanut butter.
  • This recipe makes 20 – 3 ” Keto Coconut Protein Pancakes.

They can be made with any flavour of Sugar Free Jello, making them the Perfect Low Carb Dessert for any Occasion. In this Recipe we used Lemon, Lime & Cherry Jello for a Keto Easter Dessert!

Sugar Free Jello Mousse Cups

How Do You Make No-Bake Sugar Free Jello Mousse?

To make these delicious Keto Sugar Free Jello Mousse Recipe, you use a large mixing bowl to whip the whipping cream and 1/4 cup of the cream cheese, until stiff. Then in a saucepan over high heat, bring the water to a boil. Add one of the jello packets and stir until dissolved. Divide the whipped cream into three bowls. Then, in a blender, mix the jello with 1/4 cup cream cheese. Blend until smooth. Slowly mix the jello mixture into the one of the bowls of whipped cream using a mixer. Mix until thoroughly combined.

Sugar Free Jello Mousse Cups

Then pour the Jello mixture into 4 Cups, trying not to get any on the sides of the cup if you can help it.

WHAT IS DIRTY KETO AND WHAT IS CLEAN KETO?

Dirty keto means sticking to keto macros, but without emphasizing on whole foods in particular. This is essentially the same thing as the “If it fits your macros” approach. This means that your 20 g net carbs could come from anything. People who are doing dirty keto tend to have things like diet soda and sugar free Jello.

If you’re Clean Keto, it means you generally only consume food with natural ingredients. Both people on Dirty and on Clean Keto try to stick to 20 g net carbs a day.

Sugar Free Jello Mousse Cups

This recipe for No-Bake Sugar Free Jello Mousse Cups makes a light and airy low carb Whip. It’s super quick and easy to make and can be made with any flavour of Jello. It’s a family friendly recipe that has no added sugar and is naturally Gluten free, Low Carb and Dirty Keto. (What is Dirty Keto? Dirty keto means sticking to keto macros, but without emphasizing on whole foods in particular.)

If “Dirty Keto” isn’t your thing… you can make this recipe with regular gelatin and natural flavouring. You can find several natural Jello recipes Pinterest.

Sugar Free Jello Mousse Cups

Recipe Notes:

  • I used Three 11.2 g packages of Sugar Free Jello.
  • If using a single serving blender to blend the jello, you may need to let to liquid cool a little bit before blending or use the vent if your blender has one. A smaller blender is at risk for over heating if the liquid is too hot. Blending while hot didn’t seem to bother my larger 12 cup blender.
  • The jello and cream cheese can be blended with a mixer instead of a blender. Use a large bowl if possible because it gets messy.
  • The recipe makes 4 quite large servings and could easily be made into 6 or 8 servings instead of 4.
  • The Sugar Free Jello can be replaced with 3 boxes of non sugar free Jello.
  • You can use store bought low carb whipped cream if you prefer. Use 3 cups prepared whipped cream in place of the 1 1/2 cup of Whipping Cream and 1/4 cup of Cream Cheese.
  • Putting the Mousse in the freezer instead of the fridge will speed up the set time. 15 – 20 minutes in the freezer should be enough.
  • I used 4 380 ml / 9.5 oz Glasses.
  • This recipe makes 4 Large Servings.

How To Make Keto Trail Mix

February 27, 2019 by officially gluten free 11 Comments

With this Tutorial on How To Make Keto Trail Mix, You’ll get the low-down on what to include and how to customize your homemade trail mix to your needs and wants. I give you an easy recipe for Crunchy, Salty Keto Trail Mix, that’s perfect for Hiking, Driving or Just for Snacking on while at Work or at Home watching Netflix. The recipe has many variations so if you prefer your trail mix sweeter… I’ve got you covered.

How To Make Keto Trail Mix

What to Add:

 Nuts

Feel free to use any kind of nuts. I prefer to use Pecans and Walnuts but you can use any kind of nut you like. Other options include Almonds, Cashews Peanuts, Pistachios and Macadamia Nuts.

 Seeds

Don’t Forget the seeds! Seeds are actually packing a serious nutritional punch and are often loaded with fibre. I used Pumpkin and Chia Seeds but again you can use any type of seeds you like. Sunflower, Flax, Hemp, Squash and Sesame Seeds are other great options.

How To Make Keto Trail Mix

The Extras:

Dried No Sugar Added Berries

Dried Berries add some extra sweetness, chewy texture and irresistible fruity flavour. Cranberries and Blueberries are my two favourites but you can use any Low Carb Berries you like. Strawberries, Blackberries and Raspberries are also great options.

Other Optional Mix-Ins

Some other optional mix-ins are Low Carb Chocolate, Low Carb crackers, Pork Rinds, Unsweetened Coconut.

How To Make Keto Trail Mix

The Coating:

Egg White

Coating the trail mix with frothy egg white before baking with help give it some extra crunch.

Butter

A little melted butter or coconut oil drizzled over the trail mix before baking will help the slow roast.

Molasses (optional)

Molasses does have 5g net carbs per Tsp but it’s also rich in vitamins and minerals, such as iron, calcium, magnesium, vitamin B6 and selenium. I like the flavour it adds and 5 net g of carbs over 14 servings isn’t too bad in my books.

How To Make Keto Trail Mix

Optional Trail Mix Flavours:

Savoury

A little Pink Himalayan Salt with a hint of Garlic makes an Amazing Savoury Trail Mix, that’s a perfect low carb substitute for Salty Popcorn or Chips.

Cinnamon

If you prefer a Sweeter Trail mix…skip the molasses, salt, garlic and onion powder. Instead add 1 Tsp of Cinnamon and 2 Tbsp of Powdered Swerve or Granulated Sweetener to the frothy egg white.

Chocolate

Cocoa powder is another great option, if you like your trail mix sweet. Again…skip the molasses, salt, garlic and onion powder. Instead add 1 Tbsp of Cocoa powder and 2 Tbsp of Powdered Swerve or Granulated Sweetener to the frothy egg white.

Peanut Butter

Peanut butter is another great trail mix flavour option if you like a sweeter trail mix. To make peanut butter trail mix you skip the molasses, garlic and onion powder and salt. Instead add 2 Tbsp of Natural Peanut Butter and 2 Tbsp of Powdered Swerve or Granulated Sweetener to the frothy egg white.

How To Make Keto Trail Mix

How To Make Keto Trail Mix

To make this Keto Trail Mix Recipe, you start by preheating your oven to 325 F. Then, on an un-greased cookie sheet, roast the pumpkin seeds for 2 minutes or until you hear them start pop.

Spread the pecans, walnuts and chia seeds on the baking pan. Roast until aromatic, approx. 4 – 5 minutes.

Then in a large mixing bowl, beat the egg white until frothy. Add the molasses, sweetener, 1/2 a tsp of salt, garlic and onion powder to the beaten egg white. Mix until well combined. Reduce oven to 250 F. Spead the trail mix evenly over the baking pan, then drizzle with the melted butter. Sprinkle with the remaining salt.

No-Bake Sugar Free Jello Cheesecake

How Do You Make a No-Bake Sugar Free Jello Cheesecake?

To make this delicious No-Bake Sugar Free Jello Cheesecake:

Step 1: Use a food processor, ground the pecans until very fine. Then in a frying pan over medium heat, brown the ground pecans with the almond flour. Stir continuously until aromatic, approx. 4-5 minutes.

Step 2: Remove from the heat and add the sweetener and melted butter. Mix until combined. Line a springform pan with parchment or wax paper (tin foil or plastic wrap will work too) Then press the nut mixture into the bottom of the pan. Place the prepared crust in the fridge while the cheesecake is prepared.

Step 3: Then in a large mixing bowl, whip the whipping cream and 1/4 cup of the cream cheese, until stiff. Next, use a saucepan over high heat to bring the water to a boil. Add the jello packets and stir until dissolved.

Step 4: In a blender, mix the jello with 1/2 cup cream cheese. Mix until smooth. Then slowly mix the jello mixture into the whipped cream using a mixer. Mix until thoroughly combined. Pour the jello cheesecake over the prepared crust, then refrigerate for 1 hour.

Can you Freeze a Keto No-Bake Cheesecake?

This is a make-ahead sugar free dessert and freezes well. Just be sure to let it set in the frige before freezing. I like to keep it in the springform pan for freezing.

  • To Freeze: Wrap with several layers of plastic wrap and freeze it for up to 3 months.
  • To Thaw: set in the refrigerator overnight and it will taste just as good as fresh no-bake cheesecake. We also love it partially frozen because it tastes like an ice cream cake.

WHAT IS THE KETOGENIC DIET?

The ketogenic diet (often called keto) is 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 in ketosis, your body switches to burning fat for its primary fuel source.

On Keto, 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 should avoid all grains, legumes, root vegetables, fruit, (except berries) and sugar.

WHAT IS DIRTY KETO AND WHAT IS CLEAN KETO?

Dirty keto means sticking to keto macros, but without emphasizing on whole foods in particular. This is essentially the same thing as the “If it fits your macros” approach. This means that your 20 g net carbs could come from anything. People who are doing dirty keto tend to have things like diet soda and sugar free Jello.

If you’re Clean Keto, it means you generally only consume food with natural ingredients. Both people on Dirty and on Clean Keto try to stick to 20 g net carbs a day.

No-Bake Sugar Free Jello Cheesecake

Recipe Notes for Making Keto No Bake Cheesecake:

  •  I used Two 11.2 g packages of Sugar Free Cherry Jello.
  • The pecans can be crushed in a ziplock bag, if you don’t have a food processor. Using a heavy cup or rolling pin will help get it extra fine.
  • The Cheesecake will work without a crust. You can skip the crust altogether and put the cheesecake filling into small glasses or bowls or you can use a springform pan or pie dish lined with waxed paper.
  • If using a single serving blender to blend the jello, you may need to let to liquid cool a little bit before blending or use the vent if your blender has one. A smaller blender is at risk for over heating if the liquid is too hot. Blending while hot didn’t seem to bother my larger 12 cup blender.
  • The jello and cream cheese can be blended with a mixer instead of a blender. Use a large bowl if possible because it gets messy.
  • The Sugar Free Jello can be replaced with 2 boxes of non sugar free Jello.
  • You can use store bought low carb whipped cream if you prefer. Use 2 cups prepared whipped cream in place of the 1 1/2 cup of Whipping Cream and 1/4 cup of Cream Cheese.
  • Putting the Cheesecake in the freezer instead of the fridge will speed up the set time. 15 – 20 minutes in the freezer should be enough.
  • Making the cheesecake in single serve portions will help it set faster also.
  • Use 1 Tbsp of granulated sweetener in place of the swerve if needed.
  • This recipe makes 10 Slices of No-Bake Sugar Free Jello Cheesecake.

– Use 2 170 g cans of tuna.

“These Meatballs with Keto Peanut Satay Sauce are Gluten Free & Paleo. They’re smothered in a Mildly Spicy Thai Peanut Curry Sauce. The delicious meatballs make a Great Keto Appetizer that’s perfect for Game Day or a Tasty Dinner, served with a side of Veggies and Cauliflower Rice.”

Ingredients 

For the Keto Peanut Satay Sauce:

1 1/2 Tbsp Red Curry Paste

1 Can Coconut Milk

5 Tbsp Natural Peanut Butter

3 Tbsp White Vinegar

1 Tbsp Granulated Sweetener (I used this one) 

For the Keto Meatballs:

1 1/2 lbs Ground Beef (750 g) 

1/2 Cup Pork Rinds

1 Egg

1 Tsp Garlic Powder

1 Tsp Onion Powder

Salt and Pepper

Directions 

For the Keto Peanut Sauce: 

1. Blend the curry paste in a small pot with the liquid from the coconut milk. Once it’s fully combined, add the cream from the can of coconut milk. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then add the peanut butter, sweetener and vinegar to the pot. Stir constantly until it begins to boil again.

2. Let simmer on low for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.

For the meatballs:

1. Preheat oven to 400 F. In a large bowl mix the ground beef with the crushed pork rinds, the egg, garlic powder, onion powder and salt and pepper. ( If using salted pork rinds you shouldn’t need to add much more salt)

2. Line a lasagna pan or cookie sheet with tin foil. Then roll out, small one inch meatballs. Place the meatballs in the pan, and bake for 10 minutes. Pour off any grease then turn your oven to broil. Bake for another 8 – 10 minutes, turning a few times if needed.

3. Transfer the cooked meatballs to a smaller baking dish, then cover them with 3/4 of the keto peanut  sauce. Bake for another 5 – 10 minutes. Serve on their own with the remaining sauce as a dip, or serve as a side with cauliflower rice and steamed veggies.

Recipe Notes:

– If serving as an appetizer, try placing the meatballs on a larger pan with some space between them. This will help make them a little prettier.

– Placing your coconut milk in the fridge before using will help separate the cream from the liquid. Also opening the can upside down will make separating it easier.

– Adding a few crushed peanuts to the sauce with add a little texture.

–  If using salted pork rinds you won’t need to add much salt.

– For a non low carb peanut satay sauce, replace the sweetener with 3 Tbsp of brown sugar.

– For a bit less spicy sauce, add 1 Tbsp of the curry paste instead of 1 1/2.

– If you don’t have tin foil, just use an unlined baking pan.

Keto Herb and Garlic Crackers

This Recipe for Keto Herb and Garlic Crackers is one of my favourite Keto Recipes. The Crackers are so Satisfying and are a Perfect Low Carb Substitute for Chips. My Family Loves them with Cheddar Cheese Slices or Dipped in one of Our Favourite Low Carb Dips. I used a pre mixed italian herb mix  but you could use make your own mix if you Prefer too. To make your own Italian Herb Mix, use 1 Tsp Basil, 1 Tsp Parsley, 1 Tsp Oregano. I also used a Cookie Cutter to Cut out my Crackers. You could use a Knife to cut out Squares if you’d like to.

Have You Tried Low Carb Fathead Dough Yet? If You Haven’t… You’ve Been Missing Out! It’s Amazing!!!  It’s Made With a Mozzarella Cheese Based Dough that’s So Versatile. It Makes an Awesome Keto Pizza Crust, Fathead Nacho Chips or can be used to Make Tasty Keto Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls.

Keto Herb and Garlic Crackers

Recipe Notes:

– Make Sure to Use Parchment Paper NOT Wax Paper.

– Getting them as thin as you can and cooking them for a minute or 2 longer, will help to get them crispier.

– Make sure there’s a little space between the crackers while baking helps to get them crispier too.

– How long you microwave the cheese for, depends on how powerful you microwave is. My rule of thumb is to melt cheese in increments of 30 seconds and stir. I did 2, 30 seconds and an extra 15.

– Keeping the dough cold and rolling it out quickly, before it heats up to much will help keep get it extra thin.

– To make your own Italian Herb Mix, use 1 Tsp Basil, 1 Tsp Parsley, 1 Tsp Oregano.

– Use the remaining minced garlic from the garlic butter to make a delicious herb and garlic cream cheese spread. Use 1/4 cup of cream cheese, 1 Tbsp Italian Herb mix 1 Tsp garlic powder and the leftover garlic from the butter mixture.

– I rolled half of the dough at a time, which made it easier to get it thinner.

Stir until well combined. Using a mixing bowl, add the almond flour, coconut flour, egg and italian herb mix, 1 tsp garlic powder, to the cheese mixture. Mix until well combined.
  • Wrap the dough in plastic wrap, then place in the fridge for 10- 15 minutes.
  • In a frying pan over med heat, melt the butter. Mince, then add the garlic clove, 1 tsp garlic powder and 1/2 a Tsp of salt. Let simmer for 5 minutes. (I removed most of the minced garlic at this point and saved it for the herb and garlic spread.)
  • Between 2 pieces of parchment paper, roll the dough very thin using a rolling pin. Remove the top piece of parchment paper.
  • Use a cookie cutter or a knife to cut out shapes. Place the shapes onto a parchment paper lined baking sheet. Brush the tops with the melted garlic butter, then sprinkle with the remaining salt. Then use a toothpick to poke some holes in the crackers.Bake for 12 – 14 minutes, flipping the crackers half way. Make sure to watch them closely. (Place any dough scraps back in the fridge for another 10 – 15 minutes before rolling out again.)

January 22, 2019 by officially gluten free 11 Comments

These 5 Ingredient Gluten Free & Keto Raspberry Cheese Turnovers are So Easy to Make. They can be thrown together in under 15 minutes and are such a satisfying little treat.  I used Raspberries, which are my personal favourite, but you can use Blueberries, Blackberries or Strawberries instead.

How To Make Easy Keto Raspberry Turnovers

To make these Tasty Keto Raspberry Cheese Turnovers, you preheat your oven to 375 F. Then Spread out the mozzarella slices onto 2 parchment paper (Not Wax Paper) lined baking sheets. Then, bake the cheese slices, until the edges are golden brown approx. 3-4 mins.

Use a mixer to mix the cream cheese, heavy cream and 1 Tbsp of the swerve, until smooth. Remove the cheese slices from the oven and let cool slightly. Then add 2 tsp of the cream cheese mixture to the corner of each of the cheese shells. Place 2 raspberries onto each of the turnovers.

WHAT IS THE KETOGENIC DIET?

The ketogenic diet (often called keto), is 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 in ketosis, your body switches to burning fat for its primary fuel source.

On Keto, 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 should avoid all grains, legumes, root vegetables, fruit, (except berries) and sugar.

This recipe for Keto Raspberry Cheese Turnovers is one of my families favourite sweet treats. It’s so simple and easy to make, making it a winner in my books. We eat them cold but they can be served warm as well. I used powdered swerve, which I ordered from amazon. If you’re not able to use swerve, you can substitute it for any crystallized sweetener. An erythritol and stevia blend would be my second choice.

Are you looking for some more delicious Keto Recipes? You’re in luck! I have some of my families favourite recipes to share. Our absolute fav is this Keto Dairy Free Chocolate Coconut Mousse. I love that it’s so easy and quick to make. Another one of our favourites, are these tasty Dairy Free Mini Keto Pumpkin Pies. They’re perfect for impressing brunch guests or for spoiling someone special.

Recipe Tips:

  • Using pre sliced Mozzarella Deli Slices makes this recipe a breeze.
  • Flipping the cheese shells over before adding the filling makes them a bit prettier. Let them cool for a few seconds before flipping.
  • Small square piles of grated mozzarella cheese will work instead of the slices if needed.

This recipe for Keto Zucchini Fritters is a cinch to whip up and tastes amazing. 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.
