“I grew up in South Africa and a mandatory ‘potato bake’ was the highlight of any braai. After going keto in early 2018, not being able to tuck into one was the only thing that stung a little. Then I discovered how low in carbs celeriac was! So, I adapted the recipe I used to do for a potato bake, but used celeriac instead! UPDATE: I have taken this recipe off this blog because I worked hard to bring you a new-and-improved version that now features in my cookbook Keto Kitchen.” – Monya

Celeriac is relatively low in carbohydrates compared to starchy vegetables like potatoes and carrots. Low in net carbs, it is a good source of dietary fibre. Fiber is essential for digestive health and can help promote feelings of fullness. This may aid in controlling appetite and managing weight on a keto diet.
Celeriac is a good source of essential vitamins and minerals, including vitamin C, vitamin K, vitamin B6, and potassium. These nutrients are important for overall health and can help support various bodily functions.
Celeriac contains antioxidants like phytonutrients and flavonoids, which can help combat oxidative stress and reduce the risk of chronic diseases. Antioxidants are important for protecting cells from damage caused by free radicals.
It is important to note that to maintain ketosis, it’s essential to track carbohydrate intake and ensure it aligns with your daily macro goals. Consulting with a healthcare professional is advised before making significant dietary changes.

Thank you for your clear tutorial forthis tasty dish.for the dairy intolerant could you advise an alternative.? Alpro plain almond yogurt if safe to heat? or plain almond milk with mustard powder but won’t be so thick?
I am not sure where you live, but here in the UK there is a LACTOSE-FREE SINGLE cream (Waitrose and Tesco) which could be handy. Its not as thick as double cream, so perhaps – before using – reduce in a pan over medium heat 2/3 more than what I call for in the recipe until it has thickened to a double cream consistency. That should do the job. (I do this for one of my dairy-free clients who can still tolerate LACTOSE-free foods, which are made from dairy). If you choose to go completely dairy-free, the only other option is a full-fat tin of coconut milk, but this will change the flavour considerably. xxx
I have a celery root in my refrigerator. I am so excited to try this 😉. Thank you for sharing 😉
Enjoy!
Hello, I’m interested in how the carb count is calculated as I have celeriac at 6g per 100g, this recipe uses 900g therefore 54g, 13.5g per serving and you state 5.8g per serving – obviously I’m doing something wrong!
Hi Elaine, I use professional software called NUTRITICS.COM – and it lists celeriac (peeled, uncooked) as 2.3g carbs per 100g :)
Very sad that you’ve changed this page, used to be my go to for a quick check on ingredients for Celariac Dauphinoise. Now I can’t find any ingredients listed anywhere ?
Hi Kate,
This is the new and improved book version >>
20g butter to fry the 4 garlic cloves.
900g trimmed celeriac (sliced very thin)
warm 600ml double cream and plop it all into a dish – cover with 100g Gruyere!
The video will help if you stuck with the method

Just made the dauphinoise, absolutely lush!! Had it with keto Pork Schnitzel – divine. Love your book!
Brilliant, thank you!!!! xxxxx
Amazing taste and flavours. It’s gonna be a family favourite. Had to share with the non keto people at home. Great success ???
So glad you love it!! xxxxxxx
Yay! xxxxxxxxxxxx
This was absolutely delicious! I actually prefer it to the potato version which is a bonus when starting out on a keto diet! Love your recipes and have bought your cookbook. It is so great having UK recipes too. Well done!!!
Hi Jo, celeriac has such a lovely flavour, doesn’t it? Thank you for buying my book! I had so much fun working on it and it makes me so happy to see it finally out there! xxxxx
This was so very good! We enjoyed this as a side dish to our braai/barbecue last night along with a big salad. It was a big hit with the whole family. Hubby was especially impressed because even as a non keto eater he finds the potato bake we used to eat left him feeling overfull afterwards. Thank you for this recipe. It’s going to become our new family favourite.
So thrilled you love it! Its my hubby’s favourite! xxxxxx
