First Things First – Low Carb Ingredients To Have In Your Pantry.
These are the low carb ingredients I always have on hand so that I can make a sweet treat in just a few minutes. Hopefully you have a few and if you are in an experimental mood they are all available on my Amazon storefront.
- Swerve confectioners sweetener: I use this most of the time for any kind of sweetness. The confectioners just seems to blend nicer than the granular for me so I always have some on hand.
- Swerve brown sugar Sweetener: I use this a lot in baking things like keto cookies, anything that is cookie dough flavored and in many Asian dishes.
- liquid vanilla stevia: Sometimes I use this when I want something to be really sweet and I’m already using plenty of powdered sweetener. Or I sometimes like to use it in drinks.
- coconut oil: I really like coconut as a base for freezer candy. I also use it in bulletproof coffee or tea drinks and fat bombs.
- cacao butter: I use this to make homemade chocolate sometimes. It smells great and has 0 carbs.
- shortening: I just started using this in my cookies and icing and its made a big difference.
- good cocoa powder: Divine cocoa powder and Guittard cocoa powder have less carbs than most cocoa powders and my local grocery store sells the Divine brand.
- almond milk: I mostly use this in drinks or smoothies but if a recipe would normally call for milk I always substitute almond milk. Must be the original, unsweetened flavor.
- butter: Must use this in fudge but also necessary for baking.
- heavy cream: Homemade whipped cream is a favorite of mine and heavy cream is a must for cheesecake treats.
- cream cheese: Definitely need this for cheesecake treats.
- flavor extracts: I find these can add a lot of flavor without carbs. However note that they are not sweet so you have to add sweetener too.
- low carb chocolate chips: Lily’s chocolate chips and ChocZero chocolate chips are great for snacking, trail mix and of course anything chocolate chip flavored.
- dark chocolate bars: Since I’m a big Aldi shopper I buy their 85% Cacao Moser dark chocolate bars. Lately though I’m loving these Lindt 90% Cacao chocolate bars. They are lower in carbs (4g net carbs in 3 large pieces) and I love the taste. They are not very sweet but I like that about them.
- pecans, walnuts, almonds, hazelnuts, etc: I like to make my own nut butter but I also like to use nuts in candy, to make crusts, and as a base in some fat bombs.
- nut & seed butter: I use both nut butters (almond, hazelnut) and seed butter (sunflower seed, sesame seed, pumpkin seed) in little treats and candies.
- shredded coconut & coconut chips: Toasted coconut is great with homade chocolate candy and it’s good for granola or trail mix. Coconut flakes make great coconut chips.
- chia seeds: These make great puddings and drinks. I have lots of chia seeds recipes.
- amond flour: I like almond flour the best for baking.
- coconut flour: I don’t use this much in my baking but recently it worked out great for my mini muffins.
- low carb protein powder: I use protein powder often in both chia puddings for flavor and thickening and also in protein treats. IsoPure Zero Carb protein powder is the best brand I’ve found carb wise.
- low carb collagen powder: I just started buying these (Perfect Keto Collagen Powder & Primal Kitchen Collagen Fuel) and love the flavor. A nice change from typical protein powders. They also taste great in coffee or tea.
- Great Lakes Gelatin: This is a really healthy product that is great to add protein and to make low carb gelatin desserts and panna cotta. It’s fun to play around with.
- Sugar free jello: I use this in my jello pops and sometimes just for a sweet, easy treat with no carbs.
- frozen berries: Berries have the lowest carbs of all fruit so I keep frozen berries on hand for fruit toppings and jams.
- avocados: Avocados make for yummy pudding. Add the best texture and it’s such a healthy fat.
- coffee and tea: I have so many Steeped flavored teas and they make great flavor additions without calories or carbs. I also love coffee flavored treats.
- Torani sugar free syrups: If you know me at all you know I have a big selection of Torani syrups in my home at all times. Great for drink primarily but I do use it in my baking, especially for any kind of fruit topping or jams.
