There is always someone to help, someone who needs help and much to be grateful for if you are reading this.

I wish I could share this soup, because it has a soothing effect. It’s creamy, and flavorful in a way that creates a good soup memory. Perhaps you know someone who needs a bowl. Make it, put it in a big jar and deliver it to a friend. It woucl mean a lot.

True Food Kitchen Butternut Squash Soup (copycat)

 I’ve made butternut squash soup here before made with roasted apples, and that’s quite delicious, but this this version, inspired by True Food Kitchen has become my new favorite. The chef, at the time, gave me the recipe for the soup. I lost it, so I went back and ordered the soup again, taking in every bite, and memorizing the flavor.

Here’s the thing with the True Food Kitchen Butternut Squash Soup. It’s more about the texture that makes this soup so special and I remembered that the recipe used coconut milk. This is what gives the soup its special creaminess that makes this one of my all time favorite soups that comes out of my vitamix on a frequent basis. 

What do you need to make this butternut squash soup?

You need a beautiful, roasted butternut squash, a  can of coconut milk, freshly ground ginger,  turmeric and some heat. I use   piment d’espelette.   You could use a dash of cayenne pepper, but I find that can be harsh if not used properly, so go gently. 

 If I still find the soup a little too thick I’ll add a small amount of water or broth if available. Salt and pepper are a must, and if you like to garnish soup, as I do,  add some fried sage and toasted almonds. You could also add in some arils from a pomegranate! Arils are great in a spicy soup, balancing out the heat and adding a fun texture.

What Coconut Milk do I use for True Food Butternut Squash Soup?

I use the organic coconut milk from Trader Joe’s. It works beautifully. Coconut cream will be too rich. I have a friend who adds a banana to his butternut squash soup instead of coconut milk. He says it comes out very creamy and you don’t taste the banana. If anyone does that, please let me know how that goes.

How do you make a roasted butternut squash?

This is the best part. Roast it whole. It will shrivel and shrink up. Let it cool a bit, cut it lengthwise, take out any seeds, and scoop that beautiful flesh into a super blender, like a Vitamix.

The result is a carnivore pancake recipe that is very keto friendly and gluten free and is delightfully fluffy and tastes just like traditional pancakes.

Sometimes amongst all the eggs, beef and chicken, we get cravings for bread, for pancakes, etc. Using a little ingenuity, we have found some ways to address these cravings without caving.

A few weeks ago I posted a carnivore waffle recipe that I ate every day for 2 weeks. I didn’t lose any weight but I DID LOSE FAT pounds. And, that’s what matters!

A week later, I moved onto eating pancakes and carnivore buns. Now, I’m back to just eggs (for a while) but I know I have a few of these comfort food type breakfast recipes when I need them.

I accidentally created this recipe from the carnivore burger bun recipe that I posted here, with the addition of sweetener, nutmeg and vanilla. I was really surprised that I could bake these pancakes or fry them.

Prep Time 5 minutes minutes

Cook Time 11 minutes minutes

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups heavy cream powder
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 3 eggs
• 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 1/3 cup sweetener (erythritol, monk fruit etc.)

Instructions

• Use a non-stick frying pan, using butter and low heat.
• If using pan, be sure to butter pan first, or they will stick.
• Mix all dry ingredients together in bowl. Add slowly to egg mixture once eggs are beaten well.
• Beat eggs until frothy. I use a kitchen aid mixer, but you can use a hand mixer.
• Heat butter in frying pan or griddle on low. Once melted, place batter in pan to the size you desire.
• Cook each pancakes on low. Turn at about 3 minutes.
• Make 12 pancakes.

Notes

Some recipes call for powdered milk (a lot cheaper) but in that case you will have carbs. 

This is one of the best ideas for a carnivore breakfast if you’re a little tired of steak and eggs and you’re loose enough in your diet to allow for a sweetener like erythritol or allulose.

These really do taste like traditional pancakes and will satisfy that sweet breakfast craving.

To get these the same size, you will need a whoopie pie pan, but it’s a great investment, because this recipe enjoys many variations, sweet and savory. It’s a great pan that makes whoopie pies, pancakes, and muffin tops. If you still want to make them, you can just do your best to make 12 rounds and flatten them out. They will still taste good.

Every year I go on a carnivore or ketovore diet when my clothes feel a little snug. Within two weeks, everything fits again and within a month, tight clothes are loose. But the additional benefits include better gym workouts, better energy, and no bloating.

The Run Star Body Pod

I asked for a body pod for Christmas and received the Run Star Body Pod. The Run Star Body pod is a smart body composition analyzer using multi-frequency bioelectrical impedance sensors, offering about 28 metrics, including weight, fat mass (fat pounds), fat percentage, lean mass, water, salt, bone weight, visceral fat, subcutaneous fat and metabolic age.

It is not 100 % accurate, but over time can show trends. For me, seeing almost no scale change, which could be very discouraging, but seeing actual fat loss helps me to stay encouraged in what I’m doing.

My husband is doing it also and tracking together is also motivating. We have been doing this for three weeks. He’s lost 8 pounds on scale, and 4.5 fat pounds. I’ve dropped 5 full pounds of body fat and only 1.2 pounds in weight. At the end of the 90 days, I’ll give a full report of my metrics, and post a real review of the Run Star.

Carb Free Waffles – Sweet or Savory

You can make these sweet or savory and still be on a low carb, keto or carnivore diet plan. While I prefer these on the sweet side, by adding a swerve sweetened cinnamon butter. But I have made these savory with pepperoni, so feel free to play around with these to your liking.

Why This Carnivore Waffle Recipe Works

• It’s Easy and Fast – Takes about 3 minutes
• Only Two Ingredients – eggs, mozzarella
• Tastes Great
• Versatile: Sweet or Savory
• Texture: Crunchy which makes it satisfying.

Equipment

This is my waffle maker and it works great. It heats up fast and I make the waffles on the highest setting. Waffle Maker Here.

Ingredients and Process for Carnivore Waffle

• Eggs
• Mozzarella, Shredded
• Optional Topping: Butter, Swerve Confectioner’s (or sweetener of choice), Cinnamon

What’s the Difference Between Keto and Carnivore Waffle?

A carnivore waffle is naturally keto, but a keto waffle may not be as it usually has almond flour like this one. Both are gluten free.

I can tell you this is a good recipe for carnivore burger buns. It will satisfy your craving for a smash burger.

Please excuse the pictures. I was only able to get a picture with one I had frozen (which still turned out really good).

Why You Should Make These Carnivore Burger Buns

• Zero Carb
• Fit a carnivore or keto diet
• Taste good, acts like bread
• Doesn’t fall apart
• Freezes well
• Easy to make
• Nut Free
• Not eggy

As a lover of the keto diet, these are completely carb free and fit into a carnivore diet or a strict low carb diet.

The recipe is simple and versatile, and a great base for other recipes. I recently made baked pancakes tweaking the basic recipe, which I’ll be posting soon.

The basic ratio for the buns: 1 egg, 1 teaspoon baking powder per 1/2 cup powdered heavy cream. You CAN use powdered milk but in that case you will have carbs.

Ingredients

• Eggs
• Powdered Heavy Cream (or powdered milk if you can do the carbs)
• Baking Powder
• Dash salt

If you’re not a strict meat/dairy only carnivore, feel free to play around with toppings such as sesame seeds or poppy seeds.

Unlike some of my other bread recipes, these are completely nut free. The only thing that you might have an issue with is the price of powdered heavy cream.

Ingredients for Carnivore Buns

• Powdered Heavy Cream
• Baking Powder
• Eggs
• Pinch Salt

This recipe makes six burger buns. While the buns do deflate a little, once cooled, they are easily sliced through. My buns touched during baking process, but was not a problem. Also, don’t fret if, when they begin to cool, deflate a little. This doesn’t change how good they are.

Variations

If you’re not pure carnivore, you might try toppings like sesame seeds.

This Christmas apple cranberry slab pie reminded me of the flavor profiles on the show.  The cranberries add a necessary tang to all the sweet and combine beautifully with the apples.

I’m not new to slab pies, as I made a summer version with blueberries and peaches here.

The key to this Christmas pie is flavors and cooking down the apples with butter, cinnamon, orange zest, vanilla, cardamom, and nutmeg. You can choose to mix it up anyway you like, but keep the cinnamon!

Pushing the flavors of old time Christmas, the cranberries do their job.  I used two kinds of apples. The granny smith which cooked down, yielding a lot of juice. To those I added 3 gala apples which don’t cook down in the same way.

This is the first time I’ve mixed my apples, and I rather like it. Gala apples are usually my apple of choice because they keep some of their crispness. You can mix up your apples (see notes in recipe).

The filling for the apple cranberry slab pie is absolutely delicious.

It tastes like an old fashioned pie you might eat in Europe, so rich in flavors.

I trimmed the dough around the sheet pan, but you could do something more decorative if you choose. I felt I had enough dough and the corner pieces would have too much.

Blind bake Apple Cranberry Slab Pie for 15 minutes. 

Since my apple filling was pre-cooked, I blind-baked the bottom crust for 15 minutes to ensure it remain crisp when cut. It worked perfectly, and there was no soggy bottom.

Use any cookie cutters you like. I like these Christmas cookie cutters.

This is the perfect crowd pleaser. Pre-cut into squares in the pan before serving. This pie also freezes well.

I’ll be adding this to my Apple Desserts with Decorative Crusts

Ingredients

Apple Cranberry Pie Filling

• 8 apples
• 2 teaspoons cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 1 teaspoon cardamom
• 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
• 1/2 cup fresh cranberries can sub with raspberries
• 1/3 cup brown sugar may need a few tablespoons more
• 1/2 orange for juice and zest
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted Butter
• 3/4 cup sugar (See Notes)
• 1/2 orange
• 2 tablespoons sifted corn starch
• Pie Dough
• 3 3/4 cups all purpose flour 448 grams plus more for dusting
• 12 ounces Unsalted Butter 24 tablespoons or 3 sticks
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 1 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup iced cold water 2 more tablespoons, (if needed

Instructions

• Make Pie Dough below first and refrigerate for one hour while making apple filling.

MAKE APPLE FILLING

• Peel and core apples. Y≈
• Slice apples about 1/4 inch thick.
• Zest orange and juice orange.
• Put 4 tablespoons butter in frying pan with 2 tablespoons brown sugar.
• Toss apples with sugar, juice of half orange, orange zest. Add 1 tablespoon corn starch.
• Cook apples and cranberries on top of stove on low in large frying pan, until somewhat softened. The granny smith apples will cook down more than the gala apples. There will a lot of liquid, after about 15 minutes.
• Drain liquid and use in another recipe.
• MAKE PIE DOUGH
• Cut butter into small pieces. Freeze for 10 minutes.
• Mix flour, sugar, salt in food processor or kitchen aid mixer. You can whisk and do this with your hands.
• Cut butter into flour mixture. I prefer my kitchen aid mixer but a food processor works well too
• You can, however use a pastry cutter and mix butter into flour, making sure to keep the pieces pea sized.
• Add in ice cold water. Mix just enough to be able to squeeze dough together.
• If the dough stays together when you press, it’s processed enough.
• Put in plastic bag, separating it into 1/3 and 2/3. Bring it together in bag. Refrigerate for one hour. You can do this a day in advance of recipe.
• Bring out twenty minutes before rolling.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Arrange rack in oven on bottom third.
• Once you are ready to assemble, first roll out 1/3 dough to make stars. You can make 15 large stars or 18 smaller stars. You can use more dough from the other section if need be. The recipe will make the stars and the remaining dough is just enough for the sheet pan.
• Make the cut outs and place in refrigerator, while rolling out the dough for the bottom.
• Roll into rectangle and place in sheet pan.
• Fork holes all over the bottom. Place in freezer for a few minutes.
• Arrange apples cranberry mixture.
• Before placing stars over fruit, using your finger, rub milk over each star, and sprinkle raw sugar
• Bake for 35 minutes. Check halfway through and turn pan around.
• Check at 30 minutes and loosely cover with foil if it’s already golden brown.
• Allow to cool before cutting.
• Keep at room temperature, covered with foil.
• Can be frozen for 60 days. Take out and allow to defrost at room temperature. Can be reheated in oven.

Notes

Apples: I mixed my apples, but you can use all gala which stay a little crisper and require less sugar. If you use all granny smith apples, you will need all the sugar. Taste filling as you go, since it’s cooked stovetop.

This is not a recipe for the tiny waffle maker; this is a recipe to make regular belgium waffles, low-carb and keto friendly.

You don’t need a blender as the batter can be mixed by hand. You don’t have to add any sweetener as that can be done when you eat them with a sugar free maple syrup if you’re keto or a regular maple syrup if you’re paleo.

What are the Ingredients for Keto Waffles

• Almond Flour (1/2 cup)
• Eggs (4)
• Melted Butter(2 tablespoons)
• Sour Cream (1/4 cup) (can use 4 tablespoons cream cheese)
• Baking Soda (1/4 teaspoon)
• Sweetener is optional. I leave out, so I can use in savory recipes.
• Cooking Spray

Are Keto Waffles Gluten Free?

Yes, the only flour used is almond flour. High in protein, low in carbs, zero gluten, makes these keto and paleo friendly.

Use a smattering of Swerve Confectioner’s sweetener or a sugar free maple syrup. I use Choc Zero maple syrup.

What Kind of Waffle Maker Do You Use?

I use a Belgium waffle maker, which makes a thicker waffle and this makes anywhere from three to four large waffles. If you use your mini waffle maker, you will get a lot more.

Once I take them off the waffle maker, I will put them in my Smart Toaster Oven to crisp up and keep warm.

Can You Freeze the Keto Waffles?

Yes. Stick them in plastic zip locks, freeze. Take out and heat in oven at 400 degrees F. for a few minutes. They rebake fast. I love to use my Smart Toaster Oven (on Amazon). This has a air-fryer feature, which I use to make the waffles crispier.

Most of the keto crepes recipes from the top keto bloggers taste great and work, but are just a little harder to put together and a little more challenging to make, at least for me. Those recipes usually use cream cheese (a great ingredient for various keto recipes), but I discovered using sour cream instead of cream cheese kept the batter at the desired consistency. The sour cream adds some richness, but you could leave it out. I’ve left it out for my savory crepe lasagna.

I looked to traditional French crepe recipes to see what I needed to accomplish. These traditional recipes use eggs, milk, and butter in various ratios, but thin enough to make the very thin crepe.

Keto Bakery Owner

If this is your first time here, you may not know I’ve owned a home keto bakery since 2019. Since that time I’ve been able to perfect keto muffins and cakes and experiment with lots of flavors, extracts, fruits, and sweeteners. You can choose to add the maple butter glaze or eat them without glaze, heated up and topped with butter.

Ingredients for Keto Blueberry Pancake Muffin

Amazon pays me a small commission for the following.

• Almond Flour
• Coconut Flour
• Eggs
• Xanthan Gum
• Baking Powder
• Swerve Granulated
• Swerve Confectioner’s Sweetener
• Avocado Oil
• Baking Powder
• Sour Cream (substitute with coconut milk for dairy free and skip the glaze).
• Blueberries
• Maple Extract

Frozen Blueberries

I prefer frozen blueberries, and I place them in the muffins after the batter is in the liners. This way the batter doesn’t turn blue. Frozen blueberries tend to be sweeter than store-bought unless you have local blueberries you know are sweet.

Gluten Free Dutch Baby without Gluten Free Flour

Many gluten free recipes use a base of rice flour. While I do have some gluten free recipes using the gluten free flour that are great like my gluten free biscuits, which tastes just like the Southern biscuit people miss,  most of my gluten free recipes are now made with almond flour, which yields a much better crumb.

While most of my recipes now use Swerve or Powdered Erythritol for a sweetener making them keto friendly, you can use sugar in the same recipes.

This gluten free dutch baby (a baked German pancake) is flavored with cinnamon, orange zest and topped with a sweetened cinnamon orange butter. It’s truly divine, and reminds me of crepes suzette. You can take this recipe a step further and top with some warmed cream cheese frosting (recipe here).

You might be wondering how any of this can be gluten free and keto, but it’s one of easiest of the keto recipes that uses almond flour and coconut flour.

The orange zest really drives the orange flavor without using orange juice which can be too sugary. You could also use orange extract.

What is a Dutch Baby?

A dutch baby is a German pancake that is baked in a skillet. As it bakes, it puffs up and is then ready for butter, glaze or fruit.  I’ve made an apple dutch baby here and a sausage dutch baby here with all purpose flour, but they could easily be adapted with grain free flours. I’ll come back and do that in another post.

My first gluten free, keto dutch baby was posted here and it’s the result of four separate tests to get that just right mixture that wasn’t eggy. After that I jumped over to a keto savory dutch baby made with cheddar and bacon. In the Fall, I made a keto pumpkin dutch baby that has made heads turn.

How to Make a Gluten free Dutch Baby

I used two grain-free flours in this grain-free, gluten free dutch baby recipe, almond flour and coconut flour to get the taste I was looking for. If you follow me on instagram I told you that I was going to test and retest this recipe until I got a recipe worthy of sharing.

The orange cinnamon butter is inspired by the butter cakes I make for my bakery. It’s a very forgiving butter. You can add in a squeeze of orange, a dash of cinnamon, swerve. I use a ratio of one tablespoon butter to one tablespoon of swerve.

Sugar Free Cream Cheese Glaze  

If you don’t want the orange butter, you could top with some cream cheese glaze. I basically warmed up my cream cheese frosting. I like when there is a lot of fat in a swerve recipe. If I make an orange juice glaze, it’s mostly all swerve and too sweet, which is why a cream cheese frosting glaze works so well.

I used this recipe but in a much smaller batch.

Made with avocado oil and coconut milk, instead of butter and sour cream, they are equally as flavorful and rich. When topped with my homemade blueberry pie filling found here, you really have a treat.

What to do with Savory Waffles

Refrain from adding any sweetness to the batter and enjoy savory waffles.

• Eggs Benedict (replace with waffle as your bottom).
• Chicken and Waffles with these Grain Free Chicken Tenders
• Top with Sugar Free Strawberry Sauce and Stabilized Whipped Cream.

Add Collagen for Extra Protein

I like to add a scoop of my favorite dairy free collagen peptides for extra protein. Orgain is soy free, dairy free, zero carbs.
