Low Carb Butterscotch Sauce

INGREDIENTS: 56g Sweet Cream Butter 1 Tbsp Allulose 3 Tbsp Brown Swerve 1/2 Cup Heavy Whipping Cream 1/2 tsp LorAnn Oils Butterscotch Flavor PROCESS: Melt butter in small saucepan over medium low heat until golden brown. Add Allulose, Brown Swerve, Heavy Whipping Cream, and Butterscotch Flavor and whisk until all combined.  Turn the heat to very low, and set a time for 15 minutes. Do not stir. When your timer goes off, remove saucepan from heat and whisk it all together again. It will seem thinner than you want at this point. Allow sauce to begin cooling, whisking all together every 5 or so minutes to ensure it combines and cools properly. (It will thicken up as it cools off) Transfer to glass jar and store in the refrigerator.  **It will 'harden' in the fridge. You can pop it back in the microwave at 30% power for 10 seconds at a time, whisking in between, in order to bring it back to ooey gooey thick butterscotch sauce!

Strawberry Limeade Protein Cupcakes

Image
As I mentioned on my Instagram - VMI Sports reached out to see if I wanted to create a recipe for them using their Protolyte Protein Powder. To which I replied with a resounding YES PLEASE, and immediately started planning all of the strawberry flavored recipes. This recipe comes in three parts. I feel like it will be easiest to break it down into the individuals to avoid confusion.... hopefully. Strawberry Protein Cupcakes INGREDIENTS  1/2 Scoop (15g) Strawberry Protolyte   40g Almond Flour 1/2 Tbsp (3g) Oat Fiber 1 Tbsp (5g) Lupin Flour 2 Tbsp Sweet Cream Butter, Softened 1/8 tsp Xanthan Gum 1 Egg 1/8 tsp Salt 1 Tbsp Greek Yogurt 3/4 tsp Baking Powder 4 drops Stevia Glycerite 1/4 tsp Strawberry Extract (optional) Red Food Coloring (optional) PROCESS Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line 6 cavities of a cupcake pan.

Ice Cream Base Recipe

Looking for a keto friendly ice cream with ingredients you can pronounce? Yeah, so was I. haha I know there are some new companies on the scene lately, but as hard as I looked every time I went shopping, I could never find anything aside from Halo Top. That is when I set out to create my own version. To be fair, this was inspired by a fellow Keto Instagrammer - Low Carb Lex! I took her recipe, put my own spin on it, and here we are. It is super easy to switch up the flavors and mix-ins to make your own unique creations each time. Which we all know is my favorite aspect to any recipe. I rarely make the exact same thing twice. Anyyyyway, lets just dive right in. INGREDIENTS ¼  cup Coconut Milk ( canned )⁣ ½  cup Cashew Milk⁣ ¼  cup Water⁣ 1 cup Heavy Whipping Cream 3T Erythritol⁣ (or sweetener of choice) 1 Scoop Collagen  2 Egg Yolks⁣ (the whites can be used for my Swiss Meringue Buttercream or Marshmallows!) ¼  tsp Guar Gum (should be fine to o...

Almond Butter "Milk Shake"

Image
Here is another super simple one for you. So simple, I almost don't consider it a 'recipe' - It is literally just a combination of ingredients and a little blender action. The hardest part of this entire process is cleaning your blender afterwards. The second thing I truly love about this 'recipe' is that you can swap out so many different parts to create a whole new flavor combination. One basic recipe creates SO many shakes. It's amazing. THE BASICS: 1Tbsp Almond Butte r  (or any other nut butter your heart desires)  8oz Unsweetened Almond Milk  (or any other milk replacement you have on hand. Cashew is one of my favorites, to be honest) Pinch of Xanthan Gum (can skip if you don't have this, but it helps with the milkshake texture)  15g Quest Cinnamon Crunch Protein Powde r   (if it isn't obvious by now, you can certainly swap this out too. I just love this flavor in particular and think you should give it a shot!) 6 Ice Cubes (This has ...

Keto Gingerbread Cheesecake Dip

Image
Full disclosure: This was adapted from a non-keto recipe. I have yet to reach the stage of my life where I can fully wing it from scratch and call it a success, but I have found I am pretty damn good at turning a non-keto item into a keto-approved version. That being said, I'm just going to dive right in! INGREDIENTS 4oz cream cheese, softened 2Tbsp brown ‘sugar’ 2Tbsp confectioners sweetener 1Tbsp ChocZero Maple Syrup ½Tbsp ChocZero Caramel Syrup ½tsp ground ginger ½tsp ground cinnamon Pinch of nutmeg 2oz whipped cream (I whipped up my HWC with some stevia and a dash of maple flavor for this) ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ EXECUTION⠀⠀⠀ Beat cream cheese until smooth Add in sugars and syrups and beat again Add in seasonings and beat again Add in whipped cream and beat one final time.  ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The thing I love the most about recipes like this is that they are so versatile! You can swap out so many things that the combination possibilities are literally endless. ...
