“Creamy and delicious, this easy chocolate ice cream uses real chocolate and it couldn’t be more simple! Find the best-quality dark chocolate you can get your hands on, but it must be 85% cocoa for best results (I love Lindt!). The macros are calculate on a 100g (3.5oz) serving, which is about two ice cream scoops. I reckon you will be able to get out about 8-10 such servings from this batch. The prep time shown below includes the chilling of the ice cream mixture (prior to churning), but the longer, the better. The mixture should be completely chilled before getting churned in an ice cream maker.” – Monya
“There were several dud keto lemon meringue pies here in casa de Palmer before I got this version just perfect! Zingy and refreshing, this is the perfect low carb dessert to serve at your next BBQ. Please pay attention to my tips in the method. They are all there for a reason, inspired mostly from my own failures. You will notice I add desiccated coconut to the base, and that is because back in South Africa we would make a lemon meringue tart base using crushed “Tennis Biscuits”. These are delicious store-bought biscuits that have a subtle, yet lovely coconut flavour.” – Monya
“The more I read about our precious microbiome, the more I realise how we need to nurture it. Soluble fibre is essential for the probiotics in our gut and we need to do everything we can to ensure they are well-fed. Many foods that contain prebiotics (soluble fibre) are high in carbs, which is why I love adding a little inulin powder where I can.” – Monya
“Until the stores can offer us a decent keto ice cream, we are left to our own devices. Making your own ice cream is dead easy and very satisfying. I invested in this ice cream maker – and I love it. Its excellent quality and does the job perfectly. Funnyman loves this simple vanilla ice cream and enjoys it sprinkled with nuts or topped with fresh blueberries. Macros are calculated that one serving = two scoops (50g per scoop), therefore one serving is 100g / 3.5oz. All that at 2g carbs! Enjoy!” – Monya
“I always have a batch of lollies for Funnyman in the freezer because they usually take me less than 10 minutes to make. He loves these vanilla cream lollies as after-dinner treats. And, enjoying them most nights has never knocked him out of ketosis. Here, I went back to basics with a simple vanilla cream and he was not disappointed. Unlike the majority of the other lolly recipes on this site, here I used mostly double cream and some Greek yogurt for acidity. I scraped the seeds from a good quality Madagascan vanilla pod, but if you are on a tighter budget, you can use two teaspoons of vanilla extract. Be sure to check the labels: vanilla paste contains sugar)…” – Monya
“These creamy chocolate mousse lollies are made with whipped cream that give a light, airy texture. It makes me rethink how I have been making all the other other lollies until now. The lolly moulds I use are 100ml / 3.5 fl. oz capacity, but there is so much air whipped into the mixture, you will only use about 70g to fill each mould. I also added a few drops of chocolate essence which really lifts the flavour! If you choose not to freeze the mixture, enjoy these as a simple chocolate mousse served in six ramekins. Unlike other chocolate mousse recipes, these do not require any setting time.” – Monya
“These yogurt cream with raspberries pots are made using a combination yogurt and cream. It is sweetened with powdered erythritol. I mash fresh raspberries which add lovely natural sweet tartness. And, I couldn’t resist adding ground / milled flaxseed for added goodness. This will make for a great breakfast or dessert.” – Monya
“These dreamy, keto chocolate mug cakes take just a few minutes to throw together. It took several trials to achieve this great texture. The recipe makes two, so you can tuck into them with your loved one as a dessert or a sweet breakfast. They are best eaten warm with a dollop of extra cream.” – Monya
“Only 5.8g carbs per serving for a lovely keto chocolate mousse dessert! I used (as opposed to 85% Lindt® chocolate to make this airy, creamy mousse. Very dark chocolate can be quite bitter, but its the best option when baking. I added a little powdered erythritol for additional sweetness. NOTE: If you choose to use completely unsweetened chocolate (as opposed to 85% – which is what I recommend), you will need to increase the amount of sweetener.” – Monya
“This is a lovely, keto-friendly pudding to enjoy alongside cream or my Keto Vanilla Ice Cream. The sharp, tart berries shine alongside the coconutty flavour of the crunchy crumble. If you have 6 ramekins, you may be better off baking these in them (as opposed to one pie dish), which makes for easier serving. If you choose to do this, place all the ramekins onto a tray when baking to ensure safe removal from the oven. #SafetyFirst” – Monya
“These are super simple little creamy sweet fat pots. I tope them with tart raspberries to cut through the rich creaminess. The recipe makes 4 small pots and can be done in ramekins, but I used little plastic pots which I found on amazon. (Ignore the product description that says they are disposable – I wash and re-use them.) Simply wrap in clingfilm and take these babies to work with you! Be sure to check out other Fat Bomb ideas on the site (some are sweet, other are savoury) or check out the Dessert section for great sweet treats!” – Monya
“Sweet, acidic, creamy! Whip this superstar out at your next dinner party, or simply freeze the slices like I often do. This keto lime cheesecake is just too delicious! UPDATE: I have taken this recipe off this blog because I worked very hard to bring you a new-and-improved version that now features in my cookbook Keto Kitchen.” – Monya
“When making little berry meringue baskets for guests, I always whip up sugar-free version for Funnyman and I. While ours aren’t snow-white like the store-bought versions my guests receive, they are still damn tasty. If you prefer to make a mess of this (I mean, to literally make a Berry Mess), simply use the Mini Meringues recipe and mix it all together just before serving… (as opposed to making a pretentious, deconstructed version like I have done here by piping them into baskets…)” – Monya
“I told you I was a lolly-making machine! My Homemade Keto Coconut Ice cream was so popular with Funnyman, I used the leftover mixture to make keto coconut popsicles. If you like the idea of keto lollies, do check out all the lolly flavours on this site.” – Monya
