It is known that eating sugar and grains will absolutely compromise your overall health, spike your blood glucose levels, and make your cells resistant to insulin. When that happens over and over again, your cells become resistant to insulin, causing weight gain and inflammation. My grain-free Low-Carb Berry-Walnut Swirl Bread recipe is made with fiber-rich coconut flour, eggs and is sugar-free.
Read MoreTis’ the season for baking. Many people have trouble eating a healthy breakfast full of enough protein and healthy fats, are in a rush to get out the door and end up stopping at their local coffee shop for a cup of joe and a slice of breakfast cakes. If eating steak & eggs is not your thing, try baking one of my low-carb breakfast breads that will last you at least 5 mornings. My Low-Carb Cinnamon Bread is made with only coconut flour, giving you a delicious, grain-free option full of healthy fats. The sweetness comes from sugar substitutes, such as monk fruit, stevia or erythritol so you can enjoy this slice of heaven with no blood sugar spikes. The goal for us all is to keep our blood glucose levels stable, stay insulin sensitive and feel satiated and nourished in the morning so we can set ourselves up for a successful day mentally, physically and emotionally.
Read MoreI absolutely love my Low-Carb Lemon Loaf recipe. It lends a soft, yet dense, crumb that holds up nicely when sliced. Baking grain-free recipes can be challenging, especially with coconut flour, but this recipe always comes out just right. I prefer baking with coconut flour over almond flour because the finished product is light and fluffy, contains more healthy fats and more fiber. Coconut flour may boast more net carbs than almond flour, but it’s still safe for low-carb, keto diets. Coconut flour contains MCT’s (medium chain triglycerides) that help us stay fuller, longer, so if you’re looking to enjoy a treat once in a while and still stay on your weight loss journey, baking with coconut flour may suit your needs.
Read MoreMy Low-Carb Pumpkin Bread is not just for the fall. All year around you can enjoy this pumpkin bread recipe and reap the health benefits, as well as the aroma that will fill your home. Using almond flour and coconut flour lends a soft, yet hearty texture. I keep it sugar-free by using granular monk fruit to avoid elevated blood glucose surges, which we all know is detrimental to our overall health. The pumpkin puree adds in a hefty dose of beta-carotene which converts to vitamin A in your body. Vitamin A is very important to our health as it supports vision, cell division, reproduction and immunity. If you’re going to use chocolate chips, try sticking with sugar-free options or high quality options that are over 72% cacoa. This is a perfect recipe to bake for a brunch, office breakfast gathering, to put in school lunches or a neighborly gift for the holidays.
Read MoreRecreating my kids favorite meals into a healthier version is my jam. Who doesn’t love a delicious stack of crispy on the outside pancakes? Using a gluten-free and grain-free flour is important to your overall health so that you can better control your blood glucose levels. In this low-carb recipe I use coconut flour which offers a nutritious substitution filled with nutrients, such as fiber. I also love the taste and texture of coconut flour here - light and fluffy. It’s a very simple recipe to make and everyone will love it topped with fresh berries, sugar-free maple syrup (or drizzle some honey on top), whipped coconut cream or even a dollop of macadamia nut butter. Keep leftovers in the fridge for a quick snack.
Read MoreMy low-carb Egg Casserole recipe is a nutritious and delicious option for breakfast, lunch or dinner. This fluffy, light casserole can be made for paleo, keto, low-carb and carnivore diets. Using pasture-raised eggs boosts your intake of essential nutrients including choline (supports cell membrane structure), cholesterol (makes our hormones), and omega-3 fatty acids (reducing your risk of heart disease and support brain health). Consuming protein and healthy fats at every meal leaves you feeling nourished and satiated which supports weight loss journeys. Use this healthy recipe as a base for a variety of flavors.
Read MoreHead to any coffee shop and you'll see yogurt parfaits that look healthy. They're loaded with inflammatory, non-organic dairy, sugar laden flavors and granola on top featuring oats, rancid seed oils and sugar. Instead, opt for making your own, fueled by a clean, full-fat yogurt option, fresh organic berries and protein powder. Easy to make, full of nutrients and an easy snack or meal addition.
Read MoreMy Low-Carb Pumpkin Bread recipe is a fall and winter staple in my home, but the nutritional benefits keep me baking it all year round. This paleo, grain-free recipe is easy to make and offers you some serious nutrients such as beta-carotene, from the bright orange pumpkin puree, that then converts to vitamin A in your body. Vitamin A supports visual health, alongside two powerhouse antioxidants, lutein, and zeaxanthin. Pumpkin puree is also high fiber and low calorie, made of 90% water, so it also keeps you hydrated while keeping you full. The healthy saturated fats in the ghee or coconut oil and the egg yolks, keep you satiated and your blood sugar level more stable. Did I mention your kitchen will smell amazing from this Paleo Pumpkin Bread recipe?
