Ingredients

CRUST

FILLING

  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1/3 cup confectioners erythritol
  • 1/3 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup lime juice (about 2 large limes)
  • 1 Tbsp. lime zest
  • 1 serving Key Lime Keto Chow
  • 2 large egg yolks

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F and grease a 9-inch pie dish.
  • Toast almond flour in a shallow skillet over medium heat until it’s golden in color. Stir frequently so it doesn’t burn. It should only take a couple of minutes.
  • In a medium bowl add toasted almond flour and stir in sweeteners. Add the melted butter and mix until well combined.
  • Press the mixture into the greased pie dish, going up the sides to make a complete crust.
  • Bake at 350° F for 10 minutes. You may add filling while it’s still hot.
  • While the crust bakes, use a mixer to whip together the heavy whipping cream and sweetener on high speed until stiff peaks form.
  • Zest limes and then juice them.
  • Add sour cream, lime juice and zest, Key Lime Keto Chow, and egg yolks to the whipped cream and mix until combined.
  • Pour the key lime filling into the baked pie crust, sprinkling on more zest if desired. Bake at 350°F for 20 minutes.
  • Remove pie and let cool for at least 30 minutes and then refrigerate for at least 6 hours but preferably overnight. When ready to serve, add whipped cream to top, if desired.

Ingredients

CAKE:

TOFFEE SAUCE:

  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1/4 cup brown erythritol

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F and grease four 4-ounce ramekins and place them on a cookie sheet.
  • In the bottom of each ramekin, add 1/2 tablespoon butter and 1/2 teaspoon brown erythritol.
  • With a stand mixer using the paddle attachment, cream the softened butter with the brown sweetener and vanilla.
  • While continuing to mix, add in eggs one at a time. Add the coconut flour, cocoa, baking powder, and Chocolate Toffee Keto Chow. Mix on low speed until combined.
  • Add 1/2 cup of batter into each ramekin.
  • Bake at 350°F for 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  • To make the toffee sauce, melt the butter over medium heat in a medium saucepan.
  • Carefully pour in the heavy cream.
  • In the middle of the pan, add the sweetener and the vanilla. Do not stir. Let sit for 2 minutes so the sweetener will melt. (Waiting to stir prevents crystals of sugar on the sides, making a smoother sauce.)
  • Once the sweetener has melted, stir and turn off heat.
  • Run a butter knife around the ramekin to release the cooked cake from the sides. Turn the cake onto a serving plate and spoon toffee sauce over the cake. Best served right away while warm!

Recipe Creator: Amanda Balle
Servings: 6 servings

Ingredients

  • 3 cups water
  • 1 serving Spicy Taco Base Keto Chow (or 1 scoop)
  • 1 tsp ground oregano
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp real salt
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 14 ounces canned diced green chilis
  • 2 tbsp roughly chopped cilantro
  • 1 1/2 lbs raw chicken breast
  • 1 tsp xanthan gum

Instructions

  • In a crock pot whisk together water, keto chow and seasonings. There will still be clumps of keto chow and that’s ok.
  • Add in chilis, cilantro and chicken. Cook 4 hours on high or 6-8 hours on low.
  • At the end of the time the chicken should shred when you push your spoon into it. Just keep pushing and pulling the chicken with a spoon or fork until it’s nicely shredded. (If it is not shredding in the bowl, pull each breast out and shred with 2 forks).
  • Using a ladle, spoon about ¼ cup of the liquid into a small bowl or measuring cup. Add the xanthan gum to the ¼ cup of liquid  and stir with a fork and then pour back into the crockpot.
  • Stir chili for a few minutes until you visibly see it has thickened.
  • Serve the chili with your favorite garnishes like sour cream, shredded cheese and fresh cilantro.

Ingredients

Substitute for Sugar Free Jam

  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/4 cup fruit
  • 1 tbsp granular sweetner
  • 1/2 tsp xanthan gum

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • In a small saucepan, add butter, water, sweetener, vanilla, and oatmeal flavor and start cooking on medium heat. Stir intermittently until it boils.
  • While that’s heating, in a separate bowl,  add together the keto chow, almond flour, and baking powder and mix together well with a fork making sure there are no clumps.
  • Once the butter sweet liquid mixture is boiling remove from heat and add in the dry mixture and stir together until well combined. It should form into a ball. Let cool for five minutes and then add the egg. Beat mixture until the egg is completely incorporated.
  • Add batter to a piping bag with a wide, flat tip. Add jelly to a piping bag.
  • Prepare 8x4 pan with parchment paper leaving flaps on two sides for easy removal. Pipe in half of batter in the bottom of the pan. Pipe in jam. Pipe in the rest of the batter on top. Bake on 350 for 25-30 minutes, until golden brown. Once cooled, slice into 5.

SUBSTITUE FOR SUGAR FREE JAM

  • Heat water, fruit and sweetener to boiling. Remove from heat and cook. Blend until smooth. You can strain seeds if desired. Add xanthan gum and blend again until thick.

Notes

Keto Chow used blackberries for the sugar free jam substitute. 
Instead of a bread pan, a silicone mini loaf pan was used, each slot lined with tin foil and then greased well. This will create a more cooked bottom. 
You can also line a bread pan with foil and grease that vs the parchment paper.
