25 Delicious Keto Snack Recipes That Are Worth Making

keto snack ideas

When you’re on the ketogenic diet, finding the right snacks to eat when you’re at work or just too busy to have a proper meal can be hard. Sometimes even impossible!

If you do go to the shop, most of the made snacks are high in sugar and lack nutritious value! And while it’s easy to just grab a sweet bar and not worry about it, it won’t exactly help you achieve your weight loss goals or just diet goals.

That’s where meal prepping and having a recipe or two of your favorite snacks can come in handy. You can make large batches of low carb snacks and eat them for days. It doesn’t have to take a lot of time for you to make them either!

25 Tasty Ketogenic Snack Recipes

Today I’m sharing multiple delicious ketogenic snack recipes that, I firmly believe, you should give a try to. I’ve included nutritional values too, so you can keep track of the carbs you consume!

1. Homemade Keto Chocolate Crunch Bars

Love nuts, seeds, and shredded coconut? Well, then you’ll probably love these no-bake crunch bars. They’re great for snacking and bringing them to work for your low carb lunch sessions.

For the recipe you’ll need coconut oil, I recommend this cold-pressed oil since it has more nutrients. Also, use this low carb maple syrup instead of the regular one.

 To really make the recipe low carb, make sure the chocolate chips you use are keto-friendly too. Like these ones here.

So, definitely make these when you just want everyone to eat and have a good time. However, these are probably not great for meal prepping and bringing to work for lunch.

Some protein powders are high in carbs, so do check the label before using it in this recipe. Otherwise, you might go over your carb limit and that’s not fun.

There is nothing quite as tasty as nachos. However, they’re usually very high in carbs. Thus, you probably don’t want to eat them in a restaurant.

However, it’s perfectly normal to miss a meal like that. Especially if you’ve been used to eating nachos by now.

Now, these nachos aren’t exactly the same as the ones you’re probably used to. But, they are very low in carbs – have almost none.

Make balls of wrapped cheese in mincemeat, cook them up and you’ll have a super delicious yet healthy snack. Do make sure the mince you buy has a little more fat, so going to a local butcher’s shop might be a way to go.

Don’t be afraid of fats when you’re on the ketogenic diet. The recipe does use beef mince but you could as easily use pork mince.

Beef has a much higher carbon footprint which has a negative impact on our environment. So, do eat it with care.

These meatballs are also very low in carbs which makes them perfect for a ketogenic meal.
