Have your cake-and stay keto too! With Everyday Keto Baking,
there's no need to deprive yourself of the breads, muffins, and
other treats you love. Instead, learn to make keto-friendly
(low-carb, high-fat) versions of your favorite baked goods using
real-food ingredients. This is the only keto baking book you'll
ever need. Inside you'll find more than 80 recipes specifically
geared to the keto diet. Most recipes rely on coconut flour and
almond flour, two of the most popular alternative flours on the
market. Coconut flour is an all-natural flour made only from
coconut; contains no gluten and no grain; and is low in digestible
carbs and high in fiber, making it a favorite among keto,
gluten-free, grain-free, nut-free, and low-glycemic lifestyles. Its
pure, slightly sweet taste is subtle enough that even coconut
haters won't be able to detect it, and it lends itself perfectly to
baked goods, creating results far superior to many other "healthy"
treats. Alongside other healthy ingredients like eggs and
low-carbsweeteners, the recipes in this book have been carefully
created to not only taste delicious, but also help you meet your
macros (your target ratio of protein, fat, and carbs on keto).
Enjoy all the special treats you once thought were off-limits, such
as: Fluffy Pancakes Cheesy Bagels Garlic Cauliflower Breadsticks
Chocolate Zucchini Bread Cinnamon Streusel Cake Strawberry Rhubarb
Cobbler Chocolate Chip Cookies Red Velvet Cupcakes Cheesecake
Brownies Spinach Feta Quiche Everyday Keto Baking gives you
limitless options for enjoying baked goods without guilt. The only
thing you need to worry about now is keeping them away from
everyone else! [Publisher's Note: Everyday Keto Baking is a revised
and adapted version of the original book The Healthy Coconut Flour
Cookbook.]
