2 Quick Tips for Baking Keto Desserts

If you’re relatively new to the ketogenic diet and just getting started with making your own low carb desserts, then here are a few helpful tips to keep in mind that should help you get a solid grasp on the keto baking basics:

• Choose the right baking ingredients. You’re going to want to stick with a handful of keto baking staples that can be used as direct substitutes for common baking ingredients like all-purpose flour and sugar. You should always keep items like almond flour, coconut flour, xanthan gum, and some type of low carb granulated sweetener like Stevia on hand; most keto baking recipes will be using these popular low carb ingredients.
• Focus on quality over quantity. It’s not uncommon for keto recipes to only have 2 or 3 ingredients in them. That’s completely okay because keto recipes don’t have your usual fillers, excess sugars, and other unnecessary ingredients. Keep it simple, and you’ll learn to appreciate the ingredients even more.
