When it comes to following a keto lifestyle, it can be quite difficult to bake low carb desserts and snacks that actually taste GOOD.  Sourcing keto-friendly ingredients can be time consuming and working with them requires a steep learning curve. But what if there is an easier way to make baking easy and fun again?

At BochaSweet, we have formulated a line of baking mixes that are beneficial for the keto lifestyle.

The best baking mixes for a keto lifestyle:

• Keto Fudge Brownie Mix (1g net carbs)
• Keto Cinnamon Muffin Mix (3g net carbs)
• Vegan Pancake & Waffle Mix (1g net carbs)
• Keto Variety Cookie Mix (2g net carbs)

These four baking mixes are ready to bake and only require eggs, butter (or coconut oil), and nut milk (pancake mix).

Transform your keto baking lifestyle with these 4 quick and easy keto-friendly and low net carb baking mixes. These mixes are made with high quality low carb ingredients that are high in fiber, MCT’s and best of all sweetened with BochaSweet Sugar Replacement, our all-natural, NON GMO, zero calorie sweetener that bakes, tastes, and cooks just like cane sugar all without the guilt. 

Keto Fudge Brownie Mix

Get ready to enjoy some deliciously indulgent, gooey keto fudge brownies with our Keto Fudge Brownie Mix.

This sugar-free, gluten-free, and keto-friendly fudge brownie mix makes 12 nutritious brownies with only 1g net carbs per serving:

• Acacia Fiber: Also known as acacia gum is made from the sap of the Senegal tree, indigenous to Africa, rich in soluble fiber. Acacia also helps to support gut health.
• Almond Flour: This is a healthy alternative for gluten-free baking and is rich in nutrients from protein, fiber, calcium, iron, Vitamin E, and magnesium.
• Coconut Flour: This gluten-free flour is derived from coconuts with a variety of nutrients including healthy fats, medium chain triglycerides (MCTs), fiber, and iron.
• Cocoa Powder: This superfood is found in chocolate and contains polyphenols, flavanols, magnesium, manganese, iron, and zinc. Cocoa also makes a great addition to a healthy diet.
• MCT Oil Powder: MCT’s are an extract from coconut oil. On a ketogenic diet, MCTs can be used as an immediate source of energy.
• Pink Salt: This rock salt is derived near the Himalayas region of Pakistan and contains several minerals not found in regular salt.
• Xanthan Gum: A natural baking ingredient that improves texture, consistency, flavor, and works as a thickener/stabilizer.

To finish up this mix, we added BochaSweet sugar replacement for a perfect combination of moist chocolate fudge texture with just the right amount of sweetness. Our brownie mix is made using high quality ingredients making it perfect for those that are on the keto diet, diabetics, or anyone following a gluten free or low carb diet.

Keto Cinnamon Muffin Mix

Hot ready-to-eat muffins straight from the oven make for a delicious breakfast treat.

That’s exactly what you can expect with our Keto Cinnamon Muffin Mix, which makes 12 muffins within 12 minutes! Simply add eggs and butter (or coconut oil). These muffins are packed with nutrition and contain almond flour, coconut flour, and MCT’s along with other great keto-friendly, sugar-free, and gluten-free ingredients.

• Cinnamon: This is a common household spice that is loaded with antioxidants and is demonstrated in research studies to help improve insulin sensitivity.
• Grass-Fed Collagen: We source our collagen from grass-fed, pasture-raised cows. Collagen provides your body with amino acids such as: glycine, proline, alanine, and arginine. Taking collagen supplements helps to improve skin elasticity, support nail growth, strengthen bones and joints, and hair health.
• Psyllium Husk Powder: A form of fiber made from “Plantago Ovata”. This fiber is a great substitute in baking and creates a bread-like texture in baked goods.
• Baking Soda: This familiar household ingredient goes by the name “sodium bicarbonate”.
• Baking Powder:  An aluminum-free blend of sodium acid pyrophosphate, sodium bicarbonate, cornstarch, and monocalcium phosphate. It is used to increase the volume and lighten the texture of baked goods.

Of course, these keto-friendly muffins are sweetened with BochaSweet for mouth-watering, sweet deliciousness. You can enjoy these cinnamon muffins however you want. Spice things up by adding in your favorite low-glycemic fruit or nuts.

Vegan Pancake & Waffle Mix

Transform the way you eat breakfast with scrumptious fluffy, golden-brown pancakes or perfectly textured waffles.

This plant-based pancake and waffle mix makes preparing breakfast quick and easy! This mix features plant-based protein sources that maximizes your nutritional support while on a ketogenic diet.

The ingredient profile found in this mix is similar to our cinnamon muffin mix but substitutes unique vegan-friendly protein sources:

• Pea Protein: This protein is made by extracting protein from yellow peas and contains all nine essential amino acids especially rich in branched-chain amino acids (BCAA’s). We added this protein for easy digestion and absorption.
• Hemp Protein: A “complete” protein that contains all nine essential amino acids, antioxidants and minerals, magnesium and iron, and a 3:1 ratio of omega-6 and omega-3 fats.

What makes this pancake mix truly wonderful is that we made sure to sweeten it with BochaSweet so you can enjoy your pancakes or waffles even without syrup! You can get your creative juices flowing and top with fruit or our Powdered BochaSweet. If you want syrup, we offer a great homemade recipe on our blog.

Keto Variety Cookie Mix

Make all your favorite cookies simply with our Keto Variety Cookie Mix. Whether you’re in the mood for Traditional Shortbread, Snickerdoodle, Chocolate Chip, Peanut Butter, or a childhood favorite like Oreo’s…this mix allows you to get creative in the kitchen.

This cookie mix shares a similar ingredient profile as the Keto Cinnamon Muffin Mix. A combination of almond/coconut flour, grass-fed collagen, psyllium husk, MCT oil powder, and sweetened with BochaSweet for tasty, guilt-free cookies.

The addition of cream of tartar in this mix is used as a natural leavening and stabilizing agent.

You will get 16 cookies out of this mix with 1g net carbs per serving. These cookies bake quickly within 12-14 minutes.

Now, enjoy your favorite cookie flavors by simply adding in the ingredients you prefer.
