These Keto Spider Web Sugar Wafers are a festive Halloween treat! The sweet, vanilla-scented dough is rolled, cut into rounds, and baked to golden perfection. These soft, cookie-like wafers are similar to sugar cookies and are decorated with spooky spider webs made from melted sugar-free chocolate chips. You can use a piping bag or a Ziploc bag with a small hole cut in one corner for piping the chocolate. The dough can be re-rolled as needed without becoming tough, as is common with traditional cookie doughs. The key is to keep the dough chilled. If the dough becomes too warm, chill it in the freezer until firm before cutting. The dough should be rolled to between ".33" and ".25" inch thickness and frozen solid before cutting the first set of wafers. When the rounds are picked up with a spatula, they should have the texture of chilled butter. Serve these Keto Spider Web Sugar Wafers with Low Carb Hot Chocolate.
This Vietnamese Beef Stew recipe simplifies a traditionally complex dish using stew meat in a pressure cooker for efficiency without sacrificing flavor. Typically, tough cuts of beef are simmered slowly with aromatic ingredients like lemongrass, ginger, garlic, tomatoes, carrots, and annatto extract. This version adapts easily for an Instant Pot and low-carb diets. The beef stew meat is marinated with five-spice powder, fish sauce, and black pepper. Annatto seed oil is added before pressure cooking, infusing the dish with aroma. It's finished with scallions, cilantro, and Thai basil. A dipping sauce of lime juice, salt, and pepper is recommended for serving.

These delicious Keto fritters make a great breakfast, brunch, or lunch option, loaded with fats and flavor. These low-carb fritters are prepared with cauliflower rice, shredded halloumi cheese, aromatic fresh thyme, and sweet red onion. The fritters are bound with egg and a tablespoon of tahini before being pan-fried until perfectly golden. Serve hot with a hearty Keto salad or brunch topped with crispy bacon and sliced avocado. Tahini adds flavor and fats and works well as a binder. If you would rather not use tahini, you will require an additional binding element such as more egg. Halloumi is a firm-textured cheese that can be cooked to high temperatures without melting. Queso blanco or paneer cheese would make good alternatives.

Making cold brew coffee at home is not only more delicious but also allows for customization with your preferred coffee grounds and Keto-friendly ingredients. This Keto Pumpkin Spice Cold Brew is an excellent choice for those wanting to savor fall flavors while enjoying a refreshing cold beverage. Dark roasted coffee grounds are steeped overnight in cool water and then double-strained, resulting in a smooth-tasting cold brew concentrate. Mix the concentrate with water for an easy-to-make drink. For a Paleo or vegan version, substitute heavy cream with chilled canned coconut milk, known for its creamy texture. The cold brew method, steeping grounds in cool water overnight, minimizes bitter flavors and acidity, yielding a mild and mellow coffee. Instead of water, try diluting the concentrate with coconut milk or heavy cream to increase your daily fat intake on a low-carb diet.

If you are a Keto Vegan, you will love this Keto Air Fryer recipe for Keto Vegan Taco Bowls! This recipe uses meatless grounds cooked in the air fryer and seasoned with taco spices (cumin, paprika, dark chili powder, and garlic powder). The meatless grounds are placed on top of shredded iceberg lettuce and topped with vegan cheese, sliced black olives, sliced cherry tomatoes, and poblano peppers. Vegans can feel free to add vegan sour cream on top or any other taco bowl-appropriate toppings within their carbs limits. Protein is critical for a successful Keto diet. Please use a meatless ground that is very low in net carbs but high in protein per serving. Feel free to add other toppings like avocado or vegan sour cream to hit your daily fat limits. We used sliced vegan cheese that we chopped into small pieces, but feel free to use vegan cheddar-style shreds instead. It is essential to hit daily fat levels on a Keto Vegan diet! Making sure the fat is from healthy sources is critical, especially since Vegans will not consume saturated fats from animal meat. Pairing these bowls with guacamole is a good choice: https://www.carbmanager.com/recipe-detail/ug:74df19ab-5c30-36f8-37df-f566f343c9d6/keto-vegan-guacamole.
