Is vanilla Keto-friendly?
Pure vanilla extra is ok for keto in small doses. Make sure you don’t use imitation vanilla as that has tons of added ingredients that can mess with ketosis.
If you want to be extra safe, use pure vanilla beans as they are the purest form of vanilla and you only need a tiny bit to add tons of flavor.
Is it really OK to eat cream cheese on keto?
Cream cheese is totally fine for the keto diet. It’s a great source of fats and a 1 oz serving of cream cheese contains just 0.75 g net carbs and 10 grams of fat.
Low carb vanilla mug cake shopping list
- Cream cheese – Use softened room temperature cream cheese or microwave for 10-20 seconds to make it easier to mix in with the other ingredients.
- Coconut flour – I use this one as it’s organic and the lowest net carb coconut flour I’ve found.
- Sweetener – You can use any sweetener you have that measures like sugar, I use granulated Erythritol.
- Vanilla extract
- Baking powder
- Egg – Use a large egg that’s at room temperature for easier mixing.
