Strawberry-Banana Smoothie Bowl

Strawberry-Banana Smoothie Bowl

These smoothie bowls are a perfect warm-weather treat. Offer a selection of fresh or frozen berries, nuts, and seeds - even chocolate chips, and let kids dress up their own bowl however they like, for a fun family meal. To scoop out just the rich cream for this recipe, I place a can of coconut milk in the freezer for about ten minutes.

Instructions

  • In a small saucepan over medium heat, add the butter, water, erythritol, and vanilla. Stir intermittently until it boils.
  • Meanwhile, combine the Keto Chow and almond flour, mixing well until there are no clumps.
  • In a skillet, add enough avocado or coconut oil that it is 1/2 inch deep. Heat on medium.
  • Once the butter mixture is boiling, remove from heat and add in the dry mixture. Stir until well combined. It should form a ball of dough. Let cool for five minutes and then add the egg. Beat until the egg is completely incorporated.
  • Add mixture to a piping bag with a large star tip. A Wilton 1M tip works perfectly.
  • Mix together erythritol and cinnamon in a shallow pan or bowl. Set up an assembly line with your frying pan, paper towels, cinnamon mixture, and then a pan or a plate for your finished churros.
  • Once your oil is hot, start piping in 3-4 inch strings. You can use scissors to cut the batter. Don’t fry more than 3-4 churros at a time in your pan. Use tongs to flip once the top sides of the dough start to bubble and the bottom looks golden brown. Once flipped, it only takes a minute to finish cooking.
  • Use a slotted spoon or tongs to remove your churros from the pan and put on paper towels to drain excess oil. Leave them on the paper towel to cool for several minutes (while you continue frying more churros), then place them in the cinnamon mixture and shake them around to coat.
  • Place your finished churros on a dish or platter and serve warm.

Orange-Carrot Cupcakes

A citrus spiced carrot cake that’s perfect for spring and special occasions. One carrot divided among 12 cupcakes adds a lot of flavor and texture for a small number of additional carbs. Topped with creamy orange frosting, they are just as festive as they are delicious.

Ingredients

Instructions

  • Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease very well.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the Orange Cream Keto Chow, almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and salt. Set aside.
  • In a separate large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sweetener, eggs, almond milk, avocado oil, vanilla extract, and orange extract. Whisk well until everything is fully combined.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the center of the dry ingredients and stir them together with a wooden spoon or a rubber spatula. Fold in carrots and walnuts.
  • Scoop approximately 1/4 cup of batter into each prepared muffin cup. Distribute any remaining batter as evenly as possible among the cups.
  • Bake in the preheated 350F oven on a center rack until the cupcakes are golden, spring back slightly when gently touched and a skewer inserted in the center comes out clean. Approximately thirty minutes.
  • Place the muffin tin on a cooling rack and cool for about 15 minutes, then remove the cupcakes from the tin, place directly on the cooling rack and allow them to cool completely.
  • When they are completely cool, frost them with Creamy Orange Frosting and decorate to your liking.
  • Store in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-5 days.
  • Store unfrosted cupcakes in an airtight container in the freezer for up to three months.
  • These are also great without the frosting as muffins. Toast them and slather with butter for a special breakfast treat.

Notes

A 3 tbsp scoop worked perfectly for the amount of batter in cupcake tin with no spill over.

Golden Milk Eggnog Latte

Golden Milk Eggnog Latte

You won’t even taste the eggnog in this cozy latte, but it will enhance the warming spices inspired by golden milk which are known for their healing and anti-inflammatory properties. It's a caffeine-free, warm drink that will soothe your senses. I was really happy with how this came out and it turned out to be a great use for eggnog flavor.

Calories: 422.5kcal
Author: Taffiny Elrod

Ingredients

  • 4 ounces bacon
  • 4 ounces onion diced
  • 1 pound ground chuck
  • 1/4 cup sugar free ketchup or tomato sauce
  • 1 tbsp deli mustard
  • 1 tbsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 2 servings Beef Soup Base Keto Chow (or 2 scoops)
  • 4 cups water
  • 8 ounces cheddar cheese grated
  • dill pickle slices for garnish

Instructions

  • In a large soup pot, cook the bacon over low heat until the fat has rendered off and the bacon is crispy. Remove the bacon and set aside. When the bacon is cool enough to touch, crumble it into large pieces.
  • Add the onions to the pan and cook them in the bacon fat over medium heat, until they are translucent.
  • Add the ground beef and cook, stirring to break it up into small pieces. When the beef is browned, add the ketchup, mustard, garlic powder, salt and pepper and cook until the mixture is fragrant and bubbling.
  • Add the water to the pot and bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer until beef is fully cooked, about 10 minutes.
  • Carefully remove about a cup of the hot cooking liquid and blend the Beef Soup Base Keto Chow into the liquid, then stir it back into the soup. Then stir in the cheese and simmer until the cheese is melted.
  • Serve, garnished with crumbled bacon and dill pickle slices and any other toppings you like.

Equipment

  • Candy Thermometer (optional)

Ingredients

  • 4 ounces butter unsalted
  • 4 ounces Erythritol-Stevia blend granulated sweetener
  • 2 fluid ounces heavy cream (1/4 cup)
  • 1/4 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1 serving Root Beer Float Keto Chow (or 1 scoop)
  • 4 ounces pecan halves
  • 1/4 tsp coarse sea salt

Instructions

  • Prepare a cookie sheet by lining it with lightly oiled tin foil
  • Put the butter and granulated sweetener in a small, non-stick skillet or saucepan and place over medium heat. Stir gently until the butter and the sweetener melt. At first the butter and sweetener will separate but as they continue to cook they will begin to come together.

  • As it continues to cook you will see many tiny bubbles breaking the surface the color will lighten and it will have an almost foamy look. You are essentially making a caramel.

  • Let it cook for about ten minutes. It should look lighter in color and thicker. If you have a candy thermometer, you want it to reach a temperature of about 240 degrees.
  • When it is ready, remove pan from heat and carefully stir in the heavy cream a little at a time, and then the vanilla extract. Be careful! It may bubble up a lot when you add the liquid and it is very hot.
  • Bring it back to a boil and cook it for another two-three minutes until it looks thick again. Then remove it from the heat and allow it to cool for a minute.
  • When it has cooled, whisk in the Root Beer Float Keto Chow. It should pull together and start to look velvety and glossy as you stir the Keto Chow in.

  • Then stir in the pecans and sea salt, being sure to mix them well so they are evenly distributed.

  • Now working quickly, use two spoons to scoop and drop 14 rounds of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. They should look somewhat like cookie dough before baking.
  • Chill in a cool, dry place until firm, about one hour. They set up best if they can set slowly so don’t put them in the fridge or freezer if you can avoid it.
  • Once they are set, you can store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two weeks, or in the freezer for two months. If you store them in the freezer, allow them to return to room temperature before enjoying them.

Notes

NOTES: If not using a SMALL saucepan, watch carefully as the caramel will burn quickly, even on medium low heat. It is best to use a small saucepan, small burner, and candy thermometer. 
Use small spoons to scoop out to get 12-14 pieces.

  • Silicone Candy Molds or Ice Cube Trays

  • 4 oz cream cheese room temperature
  • 4 oz heavy cream
  • 1 serving Root Beer Float Keto Chow (or 1 scoop)
  • 2 oz unsalted butter
  • 5 oz sugar-free white chocolate chips divided

Instructions

  • Beat the cream cheese in a large bowl with an electric mixer until it is light and fluffy. Beat the heavy cream and Root Beer Float Keto Chow into the cream cheese.
  • Melt the butter and 3 ounces of the white chocolate chips together over a double boiler or in a microwave safe bowl in the microwave. Heat on low temperature so it doesn’t burn or seize.
  • Beat the melted white chocolate and butter into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined.
  • Spread the mixture into oiled candy molds or ice cube trays making sure to press them firmly into all the edges, tapping them on the counter to settle them into the molds.
  • Freeze them for at least two hours. They should be firm enough to remove from the molds with ease.
  • When they are fully set, melt the remaining two ounces of white chocolate.
  • While the bon bons are still frozen spread a small amount of white chocolate on top of each one. Place them back in the freezer to set the chocolate.
  • When the chocolate is set, transfer them to an airtight container and store in the freezer for up to a month.

Notes

NOTES: The two hours is a minimum and if you try to unmold them early, they will fall apart and melt when the chocolate touches them.
