Do you want to try a new keto-friendly holiday recipe?

As the holiday season rolls around once again, it is the time of year for delicious baked treats!

Unfortunately, most baked goods are loaded with starchy refined flours and processed sugars. That means those of us on ketogenic diet have to either skip the treats or get creative!

We choose to get creative.

This keto cranberry pecan crisp recipe is loaded with healthy fats from pecans and pumpkin seeds. It also packs an antioxidant punch from dried cranberries (unsweetened of course). Additionally, pasture-raised eggs add a healthy dose of protein, vitamins, and minerals.

And these tasty crisps are not just full of keto-friendly nutrition, they are also bursting with flavor!

So for your next holiday treat craving, try a low-carb treat that will taste so good that nobody will even know that it is actually good for their health!
