Keto Kakes

What Are Keto Kakes?

A ketogenic diet is a low carbohydrate, high fat, and moderate protein diet.

Eligible foods on the keto diet include non-starchy vegetables such as leafy greens and cruciferous vegetables, fatty fish and shellfish, eggs, healthy fats including coconut oil and avocado oil, nuts and seeds – all of which pack a lot of fiber into a relatively small volume.

Prohibited foods on a ketogenic diet include grains (bread, pasta), sugars (including honey), soy products including tofu and edamame beans, starchy vegetables such as corn or butternut squash, sweet fruits such as bananas or raisins, most dairy products including milk and heavy cream, beans, pulses or pseudo-grains such as quinoa, legumes, alcohol.

A keto “kake” or cake, is a delicious way to ensure that you are eating well while on the ketogenic diet. Keeping your body in ketosis helps keep your appetite under control when trying to lose weight. A keto cake gives you something substantial to eat so that you don’t have room in your stomach for non-keto treats.

There are many recipes online for making cakes out of ingredients that will work on a low carb diet – coconut flour is an excellent ingredient for this purpose because it has no gluten content at all; almond meal works well too; the cocoa powder is rich in antioxidants; eggs are an excellent source of protein; coconut oil is rich in healthy saturated fats.

Summary

Keto Cakes are yummy keto desserts. Low carbs, high fat.

Erythritol is the best substitute for sugar because it’s NOT digested by the body and won’t spike insulin levels, which causes weight gain. It also won’t cause cavities!  It has 70% of the sweetness of sugar, so it’s easier to use less of it–just like regular sugar.

Sugar alcohols are lower in calories than table sugar.  When you eat or drink them, most don’t get absorbed into your bloodstream and can cause stomach distress if eaten in large quantities.

Keto can have many benefits. Keto cakes are good for the keto diet! A keto dessert is a great way to get in your macros without feeling too deprived of delicious treats. Since it’s low carb, you won’t have to worry about your blood sugar spiking.

Ketosis is when your body produces ketones and you reach what’s called “ketosis,” which can lead to many benefits like weight loss, diabetes management, and athletic performance.
