    So good, And also so easy using the microwave. We are trying to cut down on our electricity usage so back to using microwave and air fryer. Fingers crossed on air fryer that it doesn’t use as much electricity as the oven. But mainly keto recipes, yes, thank you!

    Most excellent and satisfying Keto dessert I’ve had in seven months since I’ve been Keto! I used Elevate protein flour from TikTok shop with almost no net carbs!

    Thank you for these great KETO recipes. I try to follow keto, lost 80 pounds on it 7 years ago but so easy to not follow once you get off track.

    I used both coconut flour and cocoa powder for my keto mug cake. Then spread each slice with peanut butter. That ticked all my boxes????
    Thank you ❤️

    I love this GF mug cake recipe. I actually make the chocolate one but put a tablespoon of peanut butter on top after it cooks ????

    1. Well… I ended up making this twice, the first time absolutely hated it [ i substituted monk fruit extract, but I use the same amount, as if 1:1 ratio…. Which was hell!! for several hours, had a very bitter, odd taste in the mouth]

      Then, i we’ll find out that it’s a tiny amount that should be used, of monk fruit extract, to match the 2tbs of other sugars. That was my second attempt…sooo much better!
