You Seriously Won't Be Able To Tell These Keto Dessert Options Are Low-Carb

The keto diet is no joke when it comes to limiting your carb intake—which is why desserts can get pretty tricky. Most typical sweets are a no-go in high amounts (a big bowl of ice cream is out, even though you can have dairy). And forget about delicious pastries (still miss u, carbs). Even some fruits are off the table. Luckily, there are some loopholes out there. That's why we scoured the internet to find the best dessert recipes that will allow you to have your (keto-friendly) cake and eat it, too.

“Having dessert on keto is like on any diet: Be conscientious about your carbs and calories and don’t go crazy,” says Sarah Jadin, RD, of Keto Consulting. Hey, one surprising side effect of going keto is that you may not want dessert as often as you think. After your taste buds change on keto, sweets may taste extremely sweet, adds Jadin.

So what can you eat on the keto diet to satisfy your sweet tooth? Still a bunch of stuff, actually (think: peanut butter, dark chocolate or cacao, and coconut). You’ll trade grain flours for nut flours like hazelnut, almond, and coconut, Jadin says. Rather than table sugar or honey, you’ll opt for a sugar sub like Stevia or monk fruit.

These 30 keto desserts are so delicious, even your non-keto-abiding friends will be asking for the recipes.
