When we started keto, we've been advised to exclude dairy from it, because of the character of symptoms that my partner has had.

keto coconut flour cheesecake #glutenfree #lowcarb
Before keto, apart from meringue, cheesecake was one of my favorite cakes. Oh moisten, fluffy and almost velvety cheesecake (any kind) melting in your mouth - that's heaven.

That what annoys me in keto - you can replace flour only with two options - … Continue reading keto coconut flour cheesecake #glutenfree #lowcarb
