#keto cookie

[losingitinjersey]

Such a chill day yesterday was!  From start to finish I felt zero anxiety, no overwhelming stress, and only pleasant work/life balance and all the happy smiles.  Strange how rare a day like that is, though they’re getting far more common the more I relax into this quarantine lifestyle.  

I neglected to mention that thanks to @zerocarb I made Keto Chow cookies on Sunday and they turned out AMAZING. She’s right though, the batter is far superior to the cookies, but the cookies are great too.  I used this recipe using Salted Caramel Keto Chow and Lily’s chocolate chips. I added it into MFP, btw, you’re welcome.  I now need to exhibit will power in not eating them all in one sitting.  

Kevin’s way stressed about upcoming exams so I’ve taken over all erp, house, and food responsibilities so he can focus on cramming his brain with all the knowledge and yesterday’s dinner was such a breeze thanks to our sous vide.  If I haven’t mentioned it before, I HIGHLY encourage anyone who enjoys eating tasty meats to get one.  I sent my sister a Marco Polo instructional video on the sous vide which is where the screenshot came from.  

I threw the chicken in around 3 p.m. then at 5 p.m., when work was over, I turned on the oven to pre-heat then went out into the garage with erp to get my skwatz in.  When I was done 40 minutes later I threw the broccoli in the oven before I took the chicken out of the pot to sear them on the stove top while the broccoli was finishing up.  Everything was complete around the same time and it took minimal effort from me to make a tasty and healthy meal.  

Ignoring the awful outfit combination of my comfy house dress paired with squat shoes, I’m surprised by how much I’m not hating on my thighs lately.  Sure, they’re always going to be thick, but I’m impressed with how much I don’t mind seeing them while I review my form in my lift videos.  Love that I’m seeing my thighs from the perspective of being powerful and strong instead of the negative mindset I’ve always had of them.

Lenny And Larry's Chocolate Chip Keto Cookie Review

[saphaburnell]

Fika 1: Knäckkakor Swedish Caramel Shortbread

Knäckkakor, or caramel shortbread cookies are a fab Keto snack for Christmas , or fika. In non-Scandinavian terms, coffee breaks. These can be a bit crumbly in comparison to their gluten-loaded twins, but treat them gently and let them cool on the silicone mat until they’re barely warm to the touch before shifting to a cutting board. I used a bread knife slowly and gently at first, holding both sides to stop them from crumbling apart.

I do all the mixing in my Kitchen Aid stand mixer, with the fold attachment. Otherwise, in a bowl with a silicone spatula works great with an additional arm work out!

When forming the dough, I find it best to do it straight on the silicone baking sheet (silpat) or baking paper you plan on baking it on. This is a fragile and crumbly mixture, a bit like wet sand.

Ingredients

100 g butter (room temp)

70 g granulated erythritol, Monk Fruit (Lakanto is what I used)

40 g Sebastiano’s Sugar-Free Caramel Syrup (or )

100 g almond flour

35 g coconut flour

1 egg (white & yolk separated)

1/2 tsp baking powder

1 tsp ginger

1 tsp cardamom

dash cinnamon (optional)

Steps

Preheat convection oven to /375 f

Cream room temperature butter, granulated ‘sugar’ substitute until fluffy. Add syrup & egg white. Combine.

Mix egg yolk with coconut flour to allow the coconut flour to absorb the moisture & combine with butter mixture.

Combine almond flour, baking powder & spices, then a scoop at a time, add to the butter mixture with the mixer on fold (slow) until you form a smooth dough.

Place silicone baking sheets on one or two baking trays. The cookies won’t expand much (this is a major difference from the non-Keto recipe I’m used to), thus you can either use two smaller cookie sheets or one large one for both ‘loafs’.

Separate dough into 2. Form 1/2 into a long rectangle on the cookie sheet, either with a rolling pin or clean hands. Form it into a rectangle between 1 - 2 cm high. Do the same for the other half of the dough.

Put in preheated oven for minutes. Remove when golden brown & set aside for 10~ minutes until slightly warm to the touch.

Transfer to cutting board & slice into 2 - 3 cm thick cookies. Let cool & serve with coffee, hot cocoa, or any time you need a treat. Will dry out over a few days, which makes them better at absorbing coffee or tea.

SKOL!

Keto Almond Shortbread Cookies

Keto Almond Shortbread Cookies

    I personally love the ketogenic diet. I love how I feel, especially the energy and sound sleep I have experienced. I love that my joints no longer ache and let’s be honest, that my waistline is shrinking. But switching over to a keto lifestyle means giving up on a lot of the foods I have loved in the past. The first thing my husband said when he bit into my keto almond shortbread cookies is,…

Keto Chocolate Chip High Fiber Cookies

Back in August my husband and I started changing our diet to no grains, no sugar, and lower protein. What have I missed the most? Sinking my teeth into something deliciously sweet and loaded with carbs. But I have done too much research to give in to those cravings. What does my diet mostly contain? Lots of cruciferous vegetables, avocados, coconut oil, ghee, nuts, wild caught fish, grass-fed…
