CHOCOLATE ALMOND TORTE

CHOCOLATE ALMOND TORTE

You can’t go wrong with almonds and chocolate. What makes this cake different is a chocolate base with layers of almond flavour coming from almond flour, sliced almonds, almond extract, and almond oil instead of butter. This cake is soft with a crunchy top and 

JALAPENO CHEDDAR BISCUITS

JALAPENO CHEDDAR BISCUITS

I’ve made many variations of this biscuit. This jalapeno cheddar is my newest one. It tasted like cornbread. The almond flour gives it the cornbread texture. It’s also keto friendly.

CRANBERRY WHITE CHOCOLATE SHORTBREAD

CRANBERRY WHITE CHOCOLATE SHORTBREAD

I love shortbread. My Mom would make it every Christmas. I’ve taken a basic recipe and jazzed it up a bit by adding almond flour, dried cranberries, and white chocolate. I like to serve this on a plate and let people break off what they 

ORANGE ALMOND CAKE

ORANGE ALMOND CAKE

I’m always looking for low-carb snacks and this cake it great for that mid afternoon treat or tea time. Since there is no flour in this, the key to getting it to rise are the egg whites. I use apple cider vinegar to stabilise them

PIZZA PIE

PIZZA PIE

I think if you ask anyone living a low carb lifestyle what food they miss the most, I bet they will say pizza. This pizza pie is a low carb version of a deep dish pizza. The crust is crunchy and you can fill it 

VANILLA ALMOND COOKIES

VANILLA ALMOND COOKIES

These cookies were a happy mistake. I had made them before with just egg whites and they were hard. This time when I went to separate the egg whites I dropped and whole egg in the bowl and just went with it. The result was 

LOW CARB BREAD

LOW CARB BREAD

If you are doing low carb and want bread, this is as good as it gets. I’ve tried many recipes and most of them were a big fail, and others not great. This one is actually good. It’s tasty, satisfying,  and can be cut into 

BREADED CHICKEN

BREADED CHICKEN

I love breaded chicken. Whether it’s a burger, strips, nuggets, I love them all. So when I decided to try making a low carb breadcrumb I was skeptical. Could I could achieve that desirable crunch or get that tasty coating that keeps the chicken moist?
