Keto Pie: Make Flavorful Low-Carb Comfort Food
Do you love pie but don’t want to consume all the carbs that come with it? Then you may want to give a keto pie a try. A keto pie is a low-carb version of a traditional comfort food that uses alternative ingredients in place of high-carb items like sugar and flour. This delicious dish can be an easy way to enjoy the flavor you crave while not overindulging in the carbs.
Keto pies allow you to indulge without worrying about the unhealthy effects of sugar. If you’re following a ketogenic diet, you’ll know that the foundation is low carbs and high-fat content. With the high fat content, keto pies have a lip-smacking flavor, and they still keep to the spirit of the diet.
Keto pies are made with ketogenic ingredients like almond flour, coconut flour, zero-calorie sweeteners, and other low-carb flour substitutes. These ingredients can be found in most health food stores, and online. They are all natural and have no added sugar.
If you’ve never tried a keto pie before, here is a savory recipe that’s sure to become a favorite.
