Amazing Keto/Low Carb Soft Pretzels
After figuring out soft and chewy sweet dinner rolls and pizza crust, I wanted to see if I could take this dough to the next step of boiling. And surprisingly it worked to make a delicious soft pretzel with quite a few tweaks to make it not too big and fluffy. The recipe ended up being pretty basic with pretty much the same ingredients as a regular soft pretzel recipe. The only difference is our "flour" is a combination of several ingredients to replace the stretch and gluten

Keto Reese's Eggs
One of my favorite candies of all time and I definitely miss it when these holidays come around and you can't escape them and all the other Easter candy all over social media and in grocery stores. My motto is to always be prepared so you aren't tempted by everything around you. So this was an experiment that turned out delicious and very simple and will definitely keep me from grabbing a sugar filled Reese's Egg. There is not much to these, even Reese's Eggs only have a few

Ultra Crispy Low Carb/Keto Beer Battered Fish Fry
Who doesn't love fried food, I have so many ideas for this batter! Fried food is definitely something I've missed a lot since going keto in 2020. So happy to have a delicious, crispy low carb beer batter to try on all sorts of things!! For my first mission it was fried shrimp and haddock fish fry and both turned out amazing! I tried altering and simplifying this recipe a lot from my original time making it back a few years ago. But unfortunately you need everything in the rec

Keto/Low Carb and GF Filled Donuts
I've been missing some soft and pillowy filled donuts, pretty much ever since I went keto in 2020. I have been working on a keto filled fried donut since 2021 wanting to get the most soft and fillable fried keto donut possible that was gluten free and almond flour free. I finally figured it out using the progression of the keto doughs I've been figuring out in the last year or so. All starting with my keto cream cheese danish recipe which is my most soft, bread like pastry an

Keto/Low Carb Lasagna
As an Italian, lasagna is something I've loved forever and even though it is a little more work, it's nice to have a piece of low carb lasagna once in awhile. What I like about cooking is you can make a dish as complicated or simple as you want. For this particular low carb lasagna I made a little more complex lamb bolognese sauce but you can just as easily brown up some beef and add a jar of your favorite low carb pasta sauce. For the sauce I used onion, garlic, ground lamb,

Low Carb Irish Cream Cupcakes
This recipe is a combination of 3 of my recipes, flavored in a Baily's Irish Cream way. Baily's Irish Cream is a liquor that is comprised of Cream, Whiskey, Cocoa, and Vanilla. If I made this for myself I would use a vanilla or Irish cream buttercream to make it lower carb- https://youtu.be/xQQasWnk_sM . I made this cake for my sister-in-law and she gets the cooling effect from erythritol very strongly so I used a whipped ganache frosting, which made these cupcakes a little h

Keto Girl Scout Peanut Butter Patties
By far my favorite Girl Scout Cookie, so much so that I figured out a keto version just a few months into starting keto in 2020. But since then I have learned a lot about keto baking and had developed a new short bread recipe. So I decided to remake the recipe with the new shortbread and see if it worked, it did and was even more delicious!! For this recipe I rolled out the dough to a 1/4 inch thickness and cut out 2 inch circles to form the base and indented them a little bi

Keto/Low Carb GF Starbucks Lemon Loaf
Been wanting to figure out a lemon breakfast loaf and lemon pound cake for awhile. After looking up recipes and ingredients for a Starbucks lemon loaf and lemon pound cake they are pretty similar. The difference between a breakfast loaf and pound cake is that a pound cake has more butter, eggs and sugar in ratio to the flour. For keto baked goods we already add extra eggs and butter to combat the dryness of our baked goods. The sugar in a pound cake is astronomical compared t

Keto/Low Carb Calzone
Haven't had a calzone since going keto and gluten free in 2020. So I decided to try making one with my delicious soft and chewy keto/gluten free pizza dough I developed, and it came out amazing!!! Can't wait to try more flavor combos as I just went simple cheese and pepperoni for testing purposes. If you want to know all the info about the ingredients in this dough check out the blog or video, linked below! Pizza Dough Blog- https://www.ketoupgrade.info/post/gluten-free-keto-

Decadent Keto Chocolate Cinnamon Ancho Crème Brulee
If you love chocolate and crème brulee this is the ultimate decadent dessert! The cinnamon and ancho elevate this to another level with just subtle hints of spice that compliment the chocolate. Crème brulee is very simple and to make it keto you just need some good quality ingredients. It's a pretty straight forward recipe, a normal crème brulee is just heavy cream, egg yolks, and sugar. So we just need to replace the sugar and to bring the carbs down some, substitute some of

Low Carb "Reese's" Cup Cheesecake
It's my Birthday and my favorite dessert is anything chocolate and peanut butter. And if I ever ate cheesecake it was always from Cheesecake Factory so I added as many elements as I could to make a low carb Cheesecake Factory type cheesecake. Because Peanut butter and chocolate have carbs that add up quickly I had to do a much simpler cheesecake, but still delicious. Cheesecake is one of the easiest things to make keto because most of the ingredients are keto, butter, eggs, c

Needed a quick appetizer one Holiday and threw these together and everyone was raving about them and they were super simple to make. So I tested to get measurements so I could write a recipe and it turned out awesome. This recipe is so versatile and can be spiced and seasoned how ever you like. I've thought about doing an Asian style version or even a BBQ Bacon Shrimp cake recipe. I started the recipe with frozen, raw, peeled and deveined shrimp. You can buy any raw shrimp yo
