What kind of dessert can you have on a keto diet?
Ketogenic diets are very high in fat and moderate in protein.
On a keto diet, your entire body switches its fuel supply to run almost entirely on fat. Insulin levels become very low, and fat burning increases dramatically. It becomes easy to access your fat stores to burn them off. This is great if you're trying to lose weight, but there are also other less obvious benefits, like less hunger and a steady supply of energy. A keto diet can help you lose weight and keep it off long term.
What you need to know about the ingredients
The first thing to understand about keto desserts is that it's not about what you can have, it's about what you should avoid.
If you're on a keto diet, you'll want to avoid sugar, wheat flour or grains and bad fats, like saturated fats.
Keto Desserts don't use any sugar substitutes. Sugar substitutes like Splenda® or Sweet 'N Low® contain some carbs and they don't taste as good as real sugar anyway. Our desserts use stevia extract powder, monk fruit sweetener, and allulose sweetener to sweeten your treats.
Our desserts use almond flour instead of wheat flour. Almond flour is lower in carbs than wheat flour so it fits right into the keto diet plan!
As long as you use the right ingredients you can make just about any desert!
You can enjoy:
And a variety of other desserts.
The best part is you get a tasty desert that is guilt free.
All of our deserts start with the concept of what to avoid. Our receipts avoid sugar, preservatives, wheat, dairy, artificial colors, natural flavors, GMO, gluten, phosphates, stabilizers, and guar gum.
Now that we know what not to use, we add the good ingredients like organic fruits, organic coconut milk, cashew, walnuts, hazelnuts, almonds, organic nut flour, organic plant oils, organic coconut oils-all good for you.
How we combine them into tasty treats is our secrete, but be assured only the best, healthiest ingredients are being used.
