What is Vital Wheat Gluten? Is Vital Wheat Gluten Keto? Does Vital Wheat Gluten have carbs?

These are the questions I get asked most often when I include Vital Wheat Gluten in any of my recipes labelled “low carb” or “keto”.

I often get comments similar to these:

“It includes wheat, it’s not keto”

“Can I replace the vital wheat gluten with something low carb?”

“what’s the purpose of vital wheat gluten?”

I’ve finally decided it’s time to put these questions and concerns to rest! Let’s get into it.. Continue reading “Is Vital Wheat Gluten Keto ?” →

OKAYYYYY. I hope you all are as hyped up as I am for this recipe.

I DON’T EVEN LIKE pork rinds and I’m pumped!

This Low Carb Pork Rind Bread is just everything.

So many possibilities..

It’s soft with a slight chew..flavourful, not bland or dry at all.

This recipe was inspired by my last two recipes: The Amazing 8min Low Carb Flat Bread & EASY LOW-CARB FLAT-BREADS (YEAST RISEN!)

BEST EVER LOW-CARB BAGELS (Yeast-Risen)

November 6, 2019November 10, 2019by sammysamgurl2 Comments

HOLY CRAP GUYS.

HOLY CRAP.

These are amazing. Like I cannot contain my excitement.

I have been attempting low-carb bread and bagel recipes for AGES AND AGES.

I feel like I’ve finally cracked the code.

These bagels not only LOOK like real bagels, they also toast up perfectly like real ones!!

I’m actually almost in tears (okay not really) but I’ve missed bagels so much being on a keto diet and these are such a nice replacement. They also aren’t hard to make! Sure anything yeast risen takes a bit of extra effort but these are worth it. Plus the flavour possibilities are endless…

Just a quick note, these bagels are NOT gluten-free but they are low-carb. You can totally eat these on a keto diet if you do not have a gluten allergy. Just as with anything, make sure they fit your daily carb count. (These are 5g of NET carbs each).

Anyways, without further ado, if you are a bagel lover like me but can’t justify eating that many carbs daily… these beautiful babies are for you. Continue reading “BEST EVER LOW-CARB BAGELS (Yeast-Risen)” →

5 min Keto Biscuit Thins

5 MIN KETO BISCUIT THINS

Have you ever gotten frustrated because as much as you love the keto way of eating.. you can’t help but feel just a little jealous when you see someone eating a delicious sausage breakfast sandwich with that nice buttery biscuit on top..Sure you could just eat the sausage, but what fun is that? That’s no breakfast sandwich.

Personally, I think anyone on a keto diet should not have to feel deprived. That’s the ultimate goal of my blog and ALL of the recipes I create. They all are based off treats and meals that I enjoyed before keto and plan to CONTINUE to enjoy but with some minor changes and alterations ;).

So with that said, Continue reading “5 min Keto Biscuit Thins” →
