What to remember

Recipes for dietary baking are so varied that you can devote a lot of time to them. In general, the following can be said about such desserts:

  • For their preparation, sugar is not used (or in very small quantities); instead, a sweetener is usually used. There are examples when dried fruits such as dates replace sweetness.
  • Wheat flour is also a product that people try not to use in these dishes. Its place is taken by ground bran, oatmeal, rice, oatmeal, and corn flour.
  • All dairy products in these recipes are either zero-fat or low-calorie.
  • It is customary to replace the more high-calorie gelatin made from animal bones with plant-based agar-agar.

Curd cakes for a slim figure provide the body with the calcium and protein it needs, and also, which is important for those on a diet, a boost of good mood.

  • Ground bran, flakes (instead of wheat flour)
  • Berries, fruits – fresh, frozen
  • Low-fat or low-fat dairy products (sour cream, milk, cream)
  • Eggs

  • Agar-agar is algae, a vegetable substitute for gelatin. They are welcomed by both vegetarians and those losing weight due to their plant origin and very healthy composition - high potassium content, also includes calcium, magnesium, iron. Low in calories (no fat at all, total energy value - 26 kcal per 100g). Calms hunger because it contains coarse fibers, traces of which remain in the powder made from it. They dissolve more slowly in the stomach and stimulate cleansing of the intestines and removal of toxins. They dissolve completely only when heated to about 100 degrees. It is believed that 2 tsp. agar powder is replaced by 1 tbsp. gelatin.

  • Dried fruits, nuts - as a filling, for sweetness. These are dates, raisins, prunes, dried apricots, chopped walnuts, almonds, hazelnuts and others.
  • Sweeteners such as stevia, a natural sweetener.

How to make a keto cake instead of a regular cake

A keto menu can include cakes, sweets and even sweet pancakes. True, you will have to prepare them yourself and only from approved products. The recipes contain sugar- and gluten-free ingredients and contain minimal amounts of glucose.

The necessary sweetness is obtained through an alternative:

  • sweeteners for baking;
  • stevia;
  • carbohydrate-free syrups;
  • a small handful of fresh berries.

The dough for the cakes is kneaded either without flour at all, or with the addition of analogues. Often the base includes eggs, psyllium and butter. The almond and coconut mixture is especially popular; flaxseed flour is added a little less often.

In theory, any of the classic recipes can be made keto. It is enough to exclude prohibited ingredients, replacing them with foods allowed by the diet. But in practice, such experiments are not always successful. It will take time to find the optimal alternative and proportions. In this regard, proven recipes for keto sweets come to the rescue.

I started with basic keto cake recipes and combined the base crust with different types of frosting and added nut, fruit, or whipped cream finishes. Combinations of a simple keto crust and frosting options allow you to make a wide variety of cakes. This saves time and budget, and also eliminates possible difficulties in finding new keto ingredients.

Carbohydrates, found in abundance in sweet and starchy foods, are easily digestible and quickly enter the bloodstream. This situation leads to an increase in blood glucose levels, which can result in a serious condition - diabetic hyperglycemic coma.

Cakes and sweet pastries that can be found on store shelves are prohibited in the diet of diabetics. However, the diet of diabetics includes a fairly wide list of foods, the moderate consumption of which does not cause an exacerbation of the disease.

Thus, by replacing some ingredients in the cake recipe, it is possible to prepare something that can be eaten without harm to health.

Worth knowing! Ready-made diabetic cake can be bought in a store in a special section for diabetics. Other confectionery products are also sold there: candies, waffles, cookies, jelly, gingerbread, sugar substitutes.

Sweet Tooth Dreams

We love sweets, and when a person tries to lose extra pounds, he, first of all, refuses sweets. The result is forbidden fruit, as they say. And the more “you can’t”, the more you want. So low-calorie cakes appeared.

They are, in fact, low in calories, but it is worth distinguishing store-bought baked goods from home-cooked ones.

What is the danger of store-bought sweets?

The main component of such sweets is chemical ingredients. Manufacturers replace conventional ingredients with synthetic analogues: butter is replaced with margarine, natural chocolate with soy in chocolate cake, eggs with egg powder, natural flavors with identical odor and taste enhancers.

To make it even tastier, the dish is seasoned with preservatives, emulsifiers and stabilizers, and the result is a product that cannot be called healthy food.

In the case of homemade baked goods (or those baked in a trusted pastry shop, it’s up to you to decide) a number of rules apply.

Excluded from components

  • sugar (sweeteners are used instead; stevia is often recommended - it is a natural sugar substitute)
  • yeast
  • wheat white flour (usually replaced, for example, with whole grain flour or bran is added)
  • butter (use unrefined vegetable oil)
  • heavy cream (replace with unsweetened yogurt or low-calorie soft cottage cheese)
  • gelatin (not always, but often it is replaced with vegetable agar-agar)
  • high-fat dairy products (replace with low-fat or low-calorie ones)

As a result, to the delight of those with a sweet tooth, the result is a dish with a reduced calorie content. But, if you look closely, the same extra calories are hidden under the beautiful wrapper.

After all, as nutritionists say, the same whole grain flour (like any other - chickpeas, rye, flaxseed) is as high in calories as white, and vegetable oil has the same energy value as butter, if not higher.

The calories are the same, but the composition is different. A beautiful figure has two main enemies - gluten and sugar. And if we talk about health, I would add a third enemy - refined oils.

Compound

If we look a little more closely at the components of cakes, it is worth noting that white flour is subjected to very strong, I would say, merciless processing. And at the end it loses almost all its beneficial properties; all that remains of vitamins and microelements is gluten.

From such flour you only gain excess weight and acquire various diseases, in particular, the gastrointestinal tract.

Sugar, as everyone knows, is very high in calories, moreover, it is instantly absorbed by the body and stored “in reserve” in fats. This is an absolute waste for our body and an increased load on the pancreas.

Well, refined oil is an extremely unhealthy food, which is prepared using chemicals such as the organic solvent hexane. This treatment destroys almost all the beneficial substances of the oil, resulting in a “dead” product.

Experts advise those who are losing weight to completely give up baking and replace it with berries and less sweet fruits.

But if you really want something sweet, then it’s better, of course, to put low-calorie baked goods on the table, and not to “pamper” yourself with a piece of an ordinary store-bought dessert - where there’s a piece, there’s usually another one, and now your efforts to lose weight have gone to waste.

Well, after this preface, let’s get down to business! Or rather, to recipes for low-calorie cakes. Get ready, it will be delicious!
