    Is Peanut Butter Allowed On Keto?

    Peanut butter has that addictive delicious taste which makes a nutritious snack that can fit into the keto lifestyle. Although it is a bit high in carbohydrates, monk fruit and stevia extract provide natural solutions for sweetening that can be used as an alternative to artificial sweeteners when combined with this creamy spread. You don’t have to miss out on one of your favorite snacks while trying to stay within the guidelines of keto! Be sure to look at labels and check for sugar content when choosing a peanut butter brand; many manufactures now offer sugar-free options perfect for keto snacking.

    Search for brands that include only peanuts and peanut oil as the main ingredients – containing no artificial sweeteners and minimal added fats, like chicory root fiber or natural flavors. There’s some tasty keto breakfast cereals like Catalina Crunch chocolate peanut butter keto cereal to satisfy your cravings! So go ahead – enjoy that delicious nutty spread without worry.

    Best Sweeteners To Use in Keto Recipes

    If you’re looking for the best sweetener to use in your keto recipes, monk fruit and stevia extract are the way to go! I love Lakanto Monk fruit as it is an all-natural, zero-calorie sweetener, that doesn’t affect blood sugar levels, making it perfect for those on a ketogenic diet.

    While stevia extract is a plant-based sugar alternative which can taste a little bitter when used in baked goods. If you’re looking for something with a slightly sweeter taste, artificial sweeteners like sucralose or aspartame can also work well in certain recipes, but be careful to read the food labels and make sure you don’t over-use these artificial sweeteners.

    What you will need for this keto cereal recipe

    Indulge in a tasty and healthy breakfast with this keto chocolate peanut butter cereal recipe! Made with Keto Chow, Lakanto Monk Fruit Sweetener, and natural flavors, this cereal is the perfect blend of sweet and salty. The addition of creamy peanut butter takes it to the next level, making it a delicious and guilt-free way to start your day on the right foot.

    • Butter – Butter is an important ingredient in this keto cereal recipe as it provides both flavor and texture. The richness and creaminess of the butter contributes to the overall taste and mouthfeel of the cereal. When combined with the other ingredients in this recipe, the butter helps to create a decadent and satisfying breakfast. To maximize its benefits, it’s recommended to use high-quality, unsalted butter like Vital Farms brand, for the best results.
    • Lakanto monk fruit sweetener – This is my favorite brand for a low carb sugar-free granulated sweetener that’s made of monk fruit extract and erythritol. Plus, it’s not bitter like stevia extract either. Lakanto monk fruit sweetener has a 1:1 regular sugar replacement ratio so it’s easy to substitute in recipes that require sugar.
    • Egg – The addition of eggs to this recipe helps to create a creamy and satisfying texture, while also boosting its nutritional value. They are a great source of healthy fats and essential vitamins and minerals, such as vitamin D and choline.
    • Chocolate Peanut Butter Keto Chow (or protein powder of choice) – I used this flavor of Keto Chow as it has the perfect nutty taste from the natural flavors of cocoa powder and peanuts. It’s an ideal addition for this keto cereal recipe due to its high nutritional value. It’s packed with essential vitamins and minerals, electrolytes, and is a significant source of protein. The low-carb content of Keto Chow makes it the perfect option for those following a ketogenic diet, as it helps you stay in ketosis and support weight loss with wholesome nutrition. You can use any chocolate peanut butter protein powder or meal shake powder you have on hand for this recipe.
    • Baking powder – One of the main benefits of adding this to your keto treats is its ability to provide leavening, which helps to make baked goods light and fluffy. Additionally, using baking powder in keto baking helps to produce a more desirable flavor and aroma, resulting in a more appetizing end product.
    • Cocoa powder – Cocoa powder adds a rich, chocolatey flavor to the cereal, enhancing its overall taste. Plus, it has antioxidants, it’s rich in fiber and low in carbs. It not only tastes amazing, it’s great for your body as well as its high in essential minerals such as iron, magnesium, and manganese, which are important for overall health and well-being.
