These gluten-free Keto chocolate pancakes are delightfully light and moist, a real crowd-pleaser. The key to a fluffy bake is the combination of almond flour and coconut flour, providing structure while other ingredients bind and add flavor. Easy to make and versatile, flavors can be altered depending on the protein powder used. This recipe yields 6-8 pancakes, serving 2-4 people, and can be halved for a single serving. Any neutral-flavored Keto-friendly protein powder is suitable (1 scoop is generally 1oz/30g or 2 tablespoons). Chocolate, vanilla, and peanut-flavored protein powders work well. If using a neutral flavor, be sure to add cacao powder. For a dairy-free version, replace butter with a plant-based alternative or neutral-tasting vegetable oil like coconut, avocado, or olive oil. If you don't have protein powder, substitute with 2 tablespoons of almond flour or ground flaxseeds, though the pancake will be denser. Avoid using only coconut flour, as it's very absorbent and will cause the pancake to crumble. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheat in a frying pan for a couple of minutes on each side.

This low carb and Keto recipe is an easy 3-ingredient cake! Sugar-free chocolate chips are melted first to be joined together with fresh egg yolks which are beaten in. Then, the remaining egg whites are whipped to a stiff peak and folded into the mix. Our method of combining the eggs in this way makes a delicious chocolate souffle cake that is perfectly fluffy and sweet! Feel free to top the finished cake with Keto vanilla ice cream or homemade whipped cream. Since there are so many eggs in this dessert, this cake would make for a nice snack. You will love the simplicity of this 3-ingredient Keto dessert. The best eggs to eat are pasture-raised eggs if you can afford them. They are full of Vitamin D (sometimes up to 1400 IU per yolk), B2, B12, selenium, and iodine. They also contain more Vitamin A and folate compared to conventionally raised eggs. Why not eat cake and have nutrition in mind too! Leftover cake can be cut into individual pieces and then wrapped tightly in plastic wrap and stored in the freezer. To thaw, place the cake in the fridge overnight until softened. Then you can reheat the cake in the microwave until slightly warm. The cake is finished baking when the center is puffed and the entire cake jiggles together in one mass. If the cake jiggles in the center only then the cake needs to be baked for additional time. Do not overbake this cake either as the inside will stay slightly fudgy which is really delicious. To make the ultimate pairing, serve this with other 3-ingredient recipes like our 3-ingredient Vanilla Keto Ice Cream which would make a delicious topping: https://www.carbmanager.com/recipe-detail/ug:99f62eae1f944981abae94f888cf5b9f/3-ingredient-vanilla-keto-ice-cream

These Keto Egg Fast Egg and Cheese Tacos are incredibly easy to prepare. Crisped shredded cheese forms the base, upon which a fresh egg is cracked. The yolk is broken to create a luscious sauce, and the skillet is covered to cook the egg to perfection. The result is a crispy cheese shell enveloping a semi-runny egg center. This ingenious method is ideal for those following an Egg Fast, where eggs, fat, and cheese are the primary components. Experiment with different shredded cheeses to add variety. Mexican Chihuahua cheese is an excellent alternative to mozzarella for its robust flavor. Other options include Pepper Jack, sharp cheddar, Colby Jack, Triple cheddar, or Cheddar Jack. Any shredded cheese that melts well will work. For those who prefer a firmer yolk, simply cook the egg under the lid for an additional 30 seconds, then flip the cheese shell over the egg and let it sit before serving. This allows the egg to cook further. These tacos can be conveniently stored in the freezer. Place them in a zip-lock bag, lay them flat, and freeze. To reheat, microwave or use an air fryer or combination microwave to restore the cheese shell's crispiness.

This recipe offers a quick and easy method for cooking ground beef in an Instant Pot, resulting in a delicious and versatile dish. A low-carb sauce, crafted from sherry wine, soy sauce, garlic, and sambal, is sautéed with the ground beef, creating a flavorful glaze. The dish is then garnished with fresh scallions and sesame seeds, adding both texture and visual appeal. Perfect for a weeknight meal or meal prep, this recipe reheats well and maintains its flavor over several days. The use of 80% grass-fed lean ground beef makes it an excellent choice for those following a Keto diet, thanks to its higher saturated fat content. The recipe is easily scalable; however, doubling or tripling it may require a longer reduction time to achieve the desired glaze consistency. If excess liquid is released during cooking, simply drain some off to ensure the sauce properly coats the meat. For the best texture, scallions should be cut into 1-inch pieces before adding them to the dish.
