Aprašymas

I found one of the most difficult parts of the Keto diet was the sugar cravings. A missed my glazed donuts, cupcake baking with my daughter and most of all, ice cream! When I realized that I didn't have to go without by changing my high-carb ingredients for substitutes like sweeteners, coconut flour and cocoa powder, I was ecstatic. With a bit of effort and some new types of foods, I was able to create delicious and decadent desserts that satisfied my cravings and made me forget I was on a diet!The key to any good Keto dessert is a high fat content versus a low carbohydrate content. This is challenging on Keto because so many prepared desserts contain high levels of sugar and other carbohydrates that will throw your body out of ketosis and ruin your diet. There are several recommended sweeteners that will sweeten without adding to your carb count. Erythritol is a sugar alcohol that is commonly used in desserts on Keto because it tastes like sugar but it doesn't contain any calories or carbohydrates. You don't want to use too much of it, though, because it can cause stomach upset in large quantities. Stevia with monk fruit is a mixture of two natural sweeteners that enhance the flavor of your dessert without affecting the carbohydrates. This sweetener combination is more expensive but is easier on the digestive system. Swerve is another sweetener that is commonly used in baking and replaces traditional confectioners' sugar. Swerve is found at most stores and is readily available online.
