This recipe is really the best option for a gluten-free, sugar-free birthday cake because the texture is so traditional none of your guests will realize it’s a “diet” cake. And if you’ve been eating low carb for a while, you probably have everything you need on hand.


That’s perfect for gluten-free and keto baking recipes with which you are using very wet ingredients, as it’s quite dry. And since there’s no milk or whipping cream or butter, this is also a dairy-free cake if you need one (just use a dairy-free frosting).


Finally, there is the Keto Chocolate Buttercream Frosting for keto chocolate cake. It’s super easy to whip up a batch of frosting.

It’s been overcast the last few mornings; a bit of “June Gloom” in September delivering just enough cool respite to turn my thoughts to Fall. For those of us living in Southern California, often dubbed “paradise”, the constancy of our weather never gives us pause.

We can count on clear blue skies almost every day (and where I live, daily temperatures in the 90’s – 110’s during late Summer and into Fall). So, it’s the absence of blue skies that makes for an interesting morning – like this morning.

Because we basically live in the desert, we find our evenings deliciously cool with a night-time inversion that brings with it ocean breezes perfect for growing grapes and taking walks! It’s this time of the year we take “family walks” after dinner. We just leave the dishes where they are and walk around the neighborhood and local park talking about school, commenting on our neighbor’s landscapes, and greeting any folks we may encounter along the way — and perhaps catching a few Pokemon! It’s always nice to come home to a simple dessert and what can be more simple than a homemade vanilla pudding?



This low-carb vanilla pudding recipe uses heavy cream and almond milk, eggs, gelatin, and a low-carb sugar substitute to achieve its creamy goodness. It takes about 15 minutes to make but needs several hours of chilling time. It’s sugar-free but its luxurious texture won’t leave you wanting for more… It’s a deliciously satisfying, comforting treat!

THIS CREAMY LOW-CARB VANILLA PUDDING IS NET CARBS PER SERVING!


Ingredients

Simmer

  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup almond milk
  • Whisk Together
  • 1/3 cup low carb sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3 large egg yolks

Add at the End

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1/4 teaspoon stevia glycerite
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 3/4 teaspoon gelatin powder “bloomed” in 1 tablespoon water
  • A sieve that fits over a medium heatproof bowl

Instructions

  • Bring the heavy cream and almond milk to a simmer in a small pot over medium heat.
  • Place the dry ingredients (erythritol, cornstarch, and salt) into a medium heat-proof bowl and whisk together. Add the egg yolks and whisk. Whisk in the whole eggs. Ready the sieve near the bowl. Sprinkle the gelatin over the tablespoon of water.
  • When the cream is hot and bubbling around the side of the pot, slowly pour it into the egg mixture whisking continuously until fully incorporated. Pour the mixture back into the pot and place over medium-low heat. (Once you become familiar with making pudding you can do it over medium heat, adjusting up and down as needed.)
  • Continuously whisk the mixture for the next 5 minutes, until it begins to thicken all at once. Turn the heat down a tad and continue to whisk for 1-2 minutes. The mixture should very slowly simmer if whisking is stopped. Remove from heat and whisk for 1 minute more. Place the sieve over the bowl and pour the pudding through the sieve to catch any bits of egg that may have cooked.
  • Whisk in the butter, vanilla, and stevia glycerite. Taste and adjust sweetness per your liking. Add the gelatin and whisk again until it’s completely melted and incorporated.
  • Cover with plastic wrap by pushing it right down onto the surface of the pudding. Chill for at least 8 hours. Before serving, whip the pudding with a hand mixer so it is lighter in texture. Serve.

15 Minute Keto Breakfast Burger


Today is the day we can now mark as the day a burger for breakfast is completely acceptable! This delicious Keto Breakfast Burger recipe is packed with protein, takes 15 minutes or less to make, and has almost no carbs!


FREE KETO RECIPES + 5-INGREDIENT KETO COOKBOOK


Start by shaping your burgers with some lean ground beef or turkey (I like 93/7 with this recipe). Shaping a burger should be quick and the most important part? Throw an indent in the middle of your keto breakfast burgers using your fingers, this will keep it flat while cooking.



If you’re preparing this keto breakfast burger on the stovetop, turn your burner on medium-high heat. Put a little olive oil into your pan.

Once your pan heats up, place your burgers in. Cook them to whatever temperature you like your burgers at (medium or 160F/71C for me). If you want cheese on them, put some on a minute or two after you flip it.

If you want your cheese to melt faster use a lid to cover your pan for around 30 seconds.

Next, take out another pan and fry up an egg with a little black pepper on it.

Wait, WHAT? An egg on a burger? Seriously! It might sound weird to some of you but it takes a burger to another level, I promise.


finish off your day with The Best Keto Cookies EVER!
