Equipment

  • Ice cream maker

Ingredients

Instructions

  • Place the almond milk, allulose, espresso powder, and vanilla extract in a blender and blend until the allulose is dissolved.
  • Add the Keto Chow and blend until combined.
  • Add the heavy cream and blend briefly to combine. If the cream is blended too long, it will start to turn into butter.
  • Pour the mixture into the ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s directions.
  • Meanwhile, melt the chocolate-caramel chips with the coconut oil in a microwave safe bowl by microwaving, stirring in between 30-second bursts until all the chips are melted.
  • Transfer the melted chocolate to a shallow dish and cool it to room temperature as quickly as possible.
  • When the ice cream is done churning, transfer half of it to a freezer safe container and smooth it out.
  • Pour half of the chocolate mixture over the surface of the ice cream, then repeat with the remaining ice cream and chocolate.
  • Cover and freeze for at least four hours.

Notes

*If you can’t find the salted caramel chocolate chips substitute any sugar-free, chocolate chips.

Recipe Creator: Chef Taffiny Elrod
Servings: 8 mini bundt cakes
Calories: 133.6kcal
Author: Taffiny Elrod

Equipment

  • eight 1-2 oz. mini Bundt cake pans or 6 standard muffin cups

Ingredients

CAKE

  • 1 cup fine almond flour (3.5oz)
  • 1 serving Root Beer Float Keto Chow
  • 1/4 cup coconut flour (1 oz)
  • 1 tsp. baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp. baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp. fine sea salt
  • 1/4 tsp. ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp. ground allspice
  • 1/4 tsp. ground nutmeg
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar style erythritol blend
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup diet root beer at room temperature

GLAZE

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350℉ and set a rack to the center. Grease 8 mini-Bundt pans or 6 muffin cups and place them on a rimmed baking tray.
  • In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, Keto Chow, coconut flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, allspice, and nutmeg.
  • In a separate bowl, beat the egg, then add the brown erythritol and sour cream and mix well. Add the root beer to the mixture and stir well.
  • Combine wet and dry ingredients and stir until ingredients are fully incorporated and there are no lumps remaining. The batter will be thick.
  • Divide the batter evenly among the prepared Bundt pans and smooth into place. Tap the pans lightly on the counter to release any air bubbles.
  • Slide the tray with the filled Bundt pans into the preheated oven and bake for approximately 25 minutes, or until the cakes are browning around the edges, bounce back when lightly touched, and a cake tester comes out clean when inserted into the center of a cake.
  • Transfer the Bundt pans to a cooling rack. When they are cool enough to handle, invert them.
  • Let cool completely and then release the cakes by gently pulling them away from the sides of the pans.
  • To make the glaze, mix the powdered erythritol and the root beer together in a small bowl.
  • Add one Tbsp. of heavy cream and stir. If glaze is too thick to pour over the cakes, add the second Tbsp. of heavy cream.
  • Drizzle the glaze over the tops of the cooled cakes, letting it drip down the sides.
  • Let the cakes sit undisturbed for approximately 30 minutes for the glaze to set before serving.
  • Store in a single layer, in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days or in the freezer for up to three months.

Ingredients

Instructions

  • Set a rack to the center of the oven and preheat to 350℉. Oil an 8 x 8 baking pan and line with parchment paper. Allow the parchment paper to hang over two opposite sides of the pan to make handles for lifting the baked blondies out of the pan.
  • In a large bowl, mix the melted butter, brown erythritol, allulose, egg, and vanilla extract.
  • Stir in the almond flour, Keto Chow, and baking powder.
  • Mix in the chocolate chips.
  • Spread the batter into the prepared pan and bake for about 20 minutes until the edges begin to look browned.
  • Allow the blondies to cool 15 minutes before using the parchment paper handles to remove from the pan. They will be soft but will firm as they cool.
  • Once cooled, cut blondies into 16 pieces. Store in an airtight container for up to a week in the refrigerator or three months in the freezer.

Ingredients

  • 12 large eggs
  • 3 Tbsp. mayonnaise
  • 1 Tbsp. bacon fat
  • 1 tsp. apple cider vinegar
  • 1 serving Spicy Taco Soup Keto Chow
  • Pinch cayenne pepper (optional)
  • 1 piece crisp-cooked bacon, finely crumbled

Ingredients

  • 1 large English (hot house) cucumber unpeeled
  • 1 small red bell pepper
  • 4 large green onions washed and dried
  • 2 ripe avocados
  • 8 large romaine lettuce leaves washed and dried
  • 1 lb. jumbo shrimp peeled and cleaned
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 tsp. ground black pepper
  • 2 Tbsp. coconut oil
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • pinch red pepper flakes
  • juice of one lemon
  • 1 serving Spicy Taco Soup Keto Chow mixed with 1/2 cup warm water

Instructions

  • Slice the cucumber into thin sticks about 2 inches long and 1/2 inch wide.
  • Cut the bell pepper in half, remove the ribs and seeds, and slice into thin pieces.
  • Cut the green onions in half the long way and cut into two-inch long pieces.
  • Cut the avocados in half, then peel and slice into thin pieces. Sprinkle with a little of the lemon juice to preserve their color if desired.
  • Toss the shrimp with the salt and pepper.
  • Heat the coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat. When the pan is hot, add the garlic and the red pepper flake. Cook until the garlic smells fragrant and is just starting to brown.
  • Add the shrimp to the pan in a single layer. Don’t crowd the pan; if all the shrimp doesn’t fit in one layer, work in batches. Cook undisturbed on one side for about one to two minutes, until the shrimp begins to look opaque on the sides, then flip and cook for one to two minutes on the other side.
  • Squeeze the lemon juice over the shrimp and remove from the pan to a clean dish. Set aside while you make the sauce.
  • Lower the heat slightly and add the prepared Keto Chow. Stir to scrape up any bits of flavor stuck to the bottom of the pan. Cook until the sauce is heated through and lightly bubbling.
  • Add the shrimp to the sauce and heat until warmed through. Remove from heat immediately so they don’t overcook.
  • Divide the shrimp, sauce, and prepared vegetables between the eight lettuce leaves.
