1. Keto Hot Chocolate (vegan)
Ingredients:
Makes 2 cups
- 25g (half bar) of Funky Fat Choc Dark (or another flavour you like)
- 140ml thick coconut milk (> 70% coconut)
- 3 tbsp pure cocoa powder
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla (vanilla bean seeds)
Optional:
- 1tsp of erythritol - but only if you want it to be extra sweet because the chocolate is already a little sweetened.
- Extra coconut cream as topping: For the coconut cream, you need to put a can of coconut milk in the fridge overnight. So, carefully open the can and remove the water. With a spoon remove the fattiest part of the coconut milk, which will be the cream. Beat it if you want to add it to your chocolate.
Instructions:
- In a saucepan, melt the chocolate over low heat.
- Raise the temperature to medium heat and add the coconut milk, cocoa powder, cinnamon, vanilla and erythritol. Stir constantly for 10 minutes.
- The chocolate will thicken as you stir, although it may seem very liquid at first. Lower the heat and continue stirring for 5 more minutes.
- Serve the hot chocolate in 2 mugs, then add the cold coconut cream on top (if you want) and sprinkle it with extra cocoa powder or cinnamon.

4. Keto Chocolate Marble Banana Cake
This cake... is just. We don't have words. When the girls from Yummy Ceto sent it to us we could not do anything else but drool. Still happens. Imagine some extra chocolate melted on top?! Oh my.
If you're already asking yourself how bananas can be keto... Well, the size of the banana you use will make a difference when it comes to the total net carb in this recipe. They used a tiny banana for a full cake.
If you're doing a carb-up this Christmas, or if still fits on your daily macros, go for the banana. But you can also swap the banana for an avocado. The taste will be different but still amazing! Avocado goes well with anything, it's almost like cauliflower nowadays
But if you do so, we think you might need to add a bit of you favorite sweetener to this cake. Try the batter and see before putting in the oven.
Ingredients:
- 4 eggs
- 150 g Almond flour
- 14g yeast
- 2 bars of Funky Fat Choc Dark or Hazelnut (100g)
- 40 g chicory syrup
- 1 small banana
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp vanilla essence
- Zest of 3 lemons
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 170 degrees.
- Beat the 4 eggs and add chicory syrup, lime and lemon zest, mashed banana and vanilla.
- In another bowl, mix the dry products. Almond flour, cinnamon and yeast.
- Mix the dry ones with the wet ones and separate a part in another bowl to mix it with the chocolate
- In a small bowl, melt the chocolate bars in the microwave or au bain marie with a teaspoon of coconut oil.
- Grease the mold with butter or ghee.
- Put a layer of dough without the melted chocolate and alternate it with another on top with chocolate until filling.
- Put in the oven for 35min at 175º or until it is done on the inside checking with a metal fork inside.
