low carb banana bread
Spending lots of time on Instagram sometimes ends up making things I usually wouldn’t do. I haven’t been eating bananas for ages, and I’m not a fan of cakes made with coconut flour – I don’t like the the texture and the taste of it. I rather eat a piece of real flour and sugar…

lazy oat and carrot bake
I saw this baked oats dessert idea so many times on Instagram that I could not resist and finally tried it as well. It’s a kind of TikTok recipe, where you put together couple ingredients, that sometimes doesn’t really go together, and prepare in a way you usually wouldn’t choose (like making mash potatoes from…

chocolate chia pudding
Really low carb themed dessert today, not sweet for most of the people, for me sweet enough to be a dessert 🙂 Obviously you can alter this recipe to your liking and needs. Personally I love combination of chocolate (cacao) and raspberries, and warmth of pudding mixed with frozen fruits, that’s melting over it. Add…

peanut butter and sunflower seed fat bombs
Peanut butter is often a “go to” snack when you are on a keto diet. Let those who have not spent the evening with a jar of peanut butter raise their hand. There are some misconceptions about peanut butter – some people say it’s a healthy snack, other that peanut butter isn’t beneficial for us.…

homemade scottish oatcakes
Recently I decided to include to my diet some foods I used to eat and really like and see how I feel about them now. With Spring I feel less fancy to eat meat, cheese and other more “heavy” foods. Spring and Summer will be my time to experiment with lighter diet full of veggies,…

spring rhubarb and apple pie with spelt flour
April is beginning of rhubarb season. Although rhubarb isn’t grown on a commercial scale in Scotland, but the first garden grown might be coming through now. Unfortunately I don’t have garden rhubarb, I will make use of supermarket one. You have to work with what you have 🙂 And to make this delicious pie I…

low carb coconut, peanut butter & chocolate bars
This is a typical ketogenic dessert – low in carbohydrates and high in fats, also great if you need a boost of energy and you rather like less sweet snacks. It’s a mix of coconut, chia seeds, peanut butter, dark chocolate and dried cranberries. As an extra touch I decided to add little bit of…

pleasure, but not guilty – raspberry pavlova
I remember making my first Pavlova – the one you can see on the photos. I was excited and terrified in the same time. I’m a master of making baking mistakes, just because I never stick to the recipe and tend to “simplify” the methods if I feel like something can be done easier or…

mascarpone cheesecake with chia & sweet cherry (keto & no flour)
I’m not a master of baking, I like simple cakes and desserts that everyone could make themselves without feeling of disaster when it’s not going to look as on Instagram. Most probably it’s simply because I don’t have so much patience to spend hours on baking, mixing, waiting to cool down (hate it!) and decorating…

almond butter crepes #ketofriendly #gluten free
I like the idea of no flour crepes so much that each time I see a new way to make them I have to try. This is one of flour free keto crepe recipes I found on Instagram (@keto_loversi), made with only two ingredients: eggs and nut butter. Comparing to other keto two ingredients recipe…
