We are using what we have in the freezer, pantry, and fridge. When I got a craving for chocolate cupcakes and found out we had no cocoa powder, I started racking my brain. I pulled this out of the beverage cupboard skeptical if I could make it work. I hadn’t done baking before with protein powder, but my craving said “it’s worth a shot.”

The fact that I’m typing up this recipe means they came out absolutely FANTASTIC. I topped with All Day I Dream About Food’s Swiss Meringue Butter Cream Frosting with just a slight bit of orange food coloring for some October fun.

Ingredients:

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350º F
  2. Mix butter and sweetener together.
  3. Add Eggs in one at a time until incorporated.
  4. Add vanilla.
  5. Stir in the rest of the dry ingredients.
  6. Scoop into 12 lined muffin cups (I love using the re-useable cup liners) and bake for 15-18 mins (until a toothpick comes out clean from center).
  7. Top with Frosting.

Strawberry Rhubarb Jam https://mnketomom.com/2018/08/28/strawberry-rhubarb-jam/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=strawberry-rhubarb-jam https://mnketomom.com/2018/08/28/strawberry-rhubarb-jam/#respond Tue, 28 Aug 2018 13:42:44 +0000 https://mnketomom.com/?p=370 ]]> Rhubarb is one of those summer treats that brings me back to my childhood.  My mom would make pies and crisps that we would all gobble up (topped with ice cream).  In fact when we moved, I made sure to bring our rhubarb plants with us.  They were originally from our family cottage where we spent the summers swimming and fishing in the Mississippi River.  Often enjoying a piece of rhubarb crisp or pie after our adventures of the day.  This jam recipe brought me right back to those sun filled days.

Ingredients:

1 cup chopped rhubarb

1/2 pound strawberries halved

1/2 tsp lemon juice

1/8 cup water

1/2 cup erythritol (divided into 1/4 cups)

1/2 cup Chia seeds

 

Directions:

  1. Boil rhubarb until soft. Drain and set asides
  2. Over medium high heat, bring water, strawberries, lemon juice and 1/4 cup of erythritol to boil.
  3. Add rhubarb back in.
  4. Reduce heat to medium and simmer for 20 mins or until thick.
  5. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
  6. Add Chia seeds and remaining erythritol.
  7. Store covered in fridge. I love using mason jars for storing in the fridge, easy to clean and reusable!

Fat Bomb Coffee Ice Cream https://mnketomom.com/2018/08/20/fat-bomb-coffee-ice-cream/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=fat-bomb-coffee-ice-cream https://mnketomom.com/2018/08/20/fat-bomb-coffee-ice-cream/#respond Mon, 20 Aug 2018 13:42:56 +0000 https://mnketomom.com/?p=140 ]]> Fatty coffee is a keto staple, and ice cream is a summer staple.  Mixing the two you have the creamiest frozen keto friendly treat!  Easily made dairy free too (see substitution below).

While a little more work than the store bought low carb options, I think you’ll find it’s worth it!

Enjoy!

Ingredients:

  • 4 whole eggs
  • 4 egg yokes
  • 1/3 cup coconut oil
  • 1/4 cup erythritol (or other low glycemic sweetener.  I use this.)
  • 1/4 cup MCT oil
  • 1 Tbsp vanilla
  • 2 Tbsp instant coffee
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 cup heavy cream (or Coconut milk for a dairy free version!)
  • 2 Tbls vegetable glycerin (keeps the ice cream soft enough to scoop)

Instructions:

  1. Microwave coconut oil and instant coffee until oil is melted. Set aside to cool.
  2. Mix all ingredients together in blender adding the coconut oil in last.
  3. Blend for 3-5 mins on high to ensure all ingredients are incorporated and oil has emulsified.
  4. Add mixture to ice cream maker until thick.
  5. Store in freezer in glass container.

I’ve only ever made this using an ice cream maker.  After trying multiple different styles, I found that this one: Cuisinart ICE-21 1.5 Quart Frozen Yogurt-Ice Cream Maker (White) has worked the best for me.  Less messy than the ice and salt types, and easy to clean parts!

Can’t wait to hear what you think!
