Keto Sweet Tooth Cookbook

THIS is the kind of cookbook I love. I love the layout. Beautiful pictures as well, that eagerly makes me want to make ALL of the recipes right now! Its very simple with ingredients most keto people should have already on hand. The recipes themselves also seemed easy enough that any beginner can bake. Thats how detailed the instructions are. The cover is decadent <3! I'm so excited to start!

The Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe were the best Keto Chocolate Chip Cookie I've tasted, definitely use Almond Meal it makes the difference!

I received this book at my request and have voluntarily left this unbiased review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.

Beautiful book with a lot of great ideas. I have such a sweet tooth so I can’t wait to try these out! Thanks for the chance to read this arc

I’m pretty good at making substitutions to m are a recipe kept compliant, but baking is a whole other story. I’m just not yet there when it comes to nut flours, but this book helps me quite a bit. I learn by doing, so having some recipes laid out is a big help in understanding how to use nut flours in baking.

The biscotti where the first on my list and turned out pretty well, though xanthan gum and I need to spend a little more quality time together. Next up on my list to try are chocolate dipped eclairs, rum balls, affogato, vanilla cake with fresh berries, and apple turn overs. Not all of the recipes require nut flours either, so you have a nice selection of easy to make recipes to choose from. You’ll be eating better than you were before keto and won’t have to skip dessert!

Like all cookbooks some recipes (that I tried) were better than others but for the most part, I was impressed with all that I tried and the wide variety of options this had. From cookies to custards, it really did have a little bit of everything most people crave only healthier and better for you.

I do not follow keto diet, but I am all about healthy eating. Recipes were good and easy enough to prepare. Book also contains techniques and some tips. Great for beginners and intermediate cooks.

This is an incredibly well-appointed keto baking book. I sincerely appreciate the balance in the use of ingredients and levels of difficulty, the variation of ingredients used (the restraint in using coconut flour and fathead dough in everything is particularly appreciated!), and there are even a few techniques or creative ways to do dishes that will improve my stand-bys that I'm looking forward to trying. That said, some of the photographs aren't appealing and gives the impression that my own recipes are still probably best (e.g. bread pudding and cinnamon rolls). Also, many of the recipes have a net carb count that are just simply too high for me.

Thank you Netgalley for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

I was excited to receive a copy of Aaron Day's new work "Keto Sweet Tooth Cookbook" since I am following a Keto diet and healthy lifestyle but have always had that nagging sweet tooth. Day begins the book with a very quick and basic overlay of the Keto diet and the different ingredients rightly assuming most people who pick up this book will be somewhat familiar with the diets concept. He covers the traditional desserts like cakes, puddings, cookies, pies and even ice cream. He even includes the famous fat bombs made famous by diet practitioners. While he sticks with the classics it is great to have a group of healthy alternatives to use. Each recipe is easy to follow with an ingredient list and step by step instructions and nutritional serving counts. He does include tips and alterations to the recipe. If the alteration includes additional ingredients he updates the nutritional facts along with it. This is a good go to for healthy dessert lovers.

I follow Aaron on a couple of social media sites. His chocolate chip cookie recipe is my #1 go-to, they are so delicious. My mom is on keto and I sent her the recipe last year and she makes them all the time too. I love how you don't have to use 27 million different ingredients to make any of these. A lot are simple and easy. Thank you for having so many beautiful pictures in here. I'm a visual person so seeing all of the wonderful recipes makes me really excited to try a bunch of them.

I am currently at the beginning of exploring the Keto diet as I'm always looking for ways to eat healthier. This book caught my eye because I have such a sweet tooth and if there is a way to make some of my favorite desserts healthier I am all for it! This book did not disappoint! The author starts out with a basic description of the Keto diet, tips for using certain ingredients and prepping the Keto kitchen. I really liked that he incorporated allergy and dietary restrictions/preferences into his ingredient list (such as nut flours for those who need gluten free and binding agents that can be used by vegans and vegetarians). I've already made the coconut bars (yum!) and the mint chocolate shake (I tweaked this to used non dairy ice cream- delicious!) and can't wait to explore all of the other delicious sounding recipes! The pictures throughout the book are beautiful and just add to my desire to make every single recipe in this book! Thank you Netgalley and DK for an ARC copy in exchange for an honest review.

This cookbook is seriously AMAZING!! I love sweets and it delivered on them completely! And all for no or very few carbs too! The pictures are delectable, the recipes sound amazing, there are nutritional facts as well as being allergy friendly with recipes marked egg-free, wheat-free etc.

There is a wide variety of types of sweets and all are fairly easy to make too. Beware, if you get this cookbook, your other recipe books for sweets are sure to gather dust because this has everything you will need!

Full disclosure:  I am not a believer in the ketogenic fad.  I am, however, interested in eating healthier by cutting carbs .... and I LOVE dessert!  I approached the reading of this book with an eye to finding some dessert recipes that I could incorporate into my own diet.  

I plan to try the Lemon Coconut Cake with Cream Cheese Icing and the Blueberry Chia Pudding looks fantastic!  Chocolate Chip Cookies are a staple in my home, so I look forward to giving this gluten and sugar free recipe a try, along with the Peanut Butter Cookies, Gingerbread Cookies, Snickerdoodles, Lemon "Sugar" Cookies and Coconut Cookies.  I just need to stock up on some of the flours and sweeteners listed in the recipes.

(NetGalley ebook -  I received a complimentary advanced reader copy of this book through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.)

I always found myself eating unhealthy food on keto and most times it was sweet. This book is amazing for those like myself with a sweet tooth.

This is organized and comes full of beautiful pictures! I'm excited to try these delicious sounding recipes.

From muffins to cakes, to pies to ice cream, the Keto Sweet Tooth Cookbook is chock full of recipes for making keto-compliant desserts. The opening section of this book includes helpful primers on ingredients that are part of the keto diet, including flours, binding agents, and sweeteners. These lists and explanations will be helpful to those looking to make keto ingredient substitutions in their own recipes, including non-desserts.

This is the kind of cookbook I love! I mean who doesn't love sweets?!
Day's recipes were straightforward with great pictures, and the layout was perfect! I was impressed with the outcome of the recipes I tried. If you have a sweet tooth, and are on Keto this is a cookbook for you!

Mmmmm ..

Yum yum yum!!!
Ive been on the Paleo lifestyle for about 4 months now and the thing I miss most is something sweet as a treat. This book has so many great ideas, they are simple and easy to follow. For me they are easy to adapt to the Paleo eating style and they taste good !! Highly reccomend using this book to help cure your sweet fix :)

This book is amazing! A comprehensive guide to Keto baking. I've been doing Keto for 3 months (down 25 lbs, yay!) and while in the beginning it was hard to find adjustments, now I'm pretty stable. The only thing that makes me a little sad about Keto is the lack of sweets. I've tried Keto baking in the past, but my cookies, muffins and desserts have come out strange. The lack of gluten makes the dishes really moist and crumbly, and often has a strong nut taste. After reading this book, I've discovered xantham gum and guar guar! These act as binding agents, and now my desserts come out looking and tasting a lot like normal dessert! I love the variety of desserts in this book, the beautiful photos, and the very clear instructions. Learning about xantham and guar guar makes it much more likely that I'll stay Keto or low carb as my lifestyle of choice for a long time to come.

Keto Sweet Tooth Cookbook is a new low-carb dessert cookbook by Aaron Day. Released 9th July 2019 by Penguin on their DK imprint, it's 160 pages and available in ebook and paperback formats.

I have heard so many people comment that they could never follow a low-carb diet because they would have to give up desserts 'forever'. This interesting collection of recipes provides 80 tasty counter-arguments.

The author has done a good job of writing an accessible and logically formatted cookbook. The introductory sections (~14% of the total content) define the terms and give a very basic layman accessible overview of the metabolic processes behind ketogenic diets and how to make sweet foods sweet without adding sugar to them. This chapter also includes an overview of nut flours, binding agents and other specialized ingredients used in the recipes. The next chapters contain the recipes arranged by type: cakes, puddings, cookies, tarts, fat bombs, and frozen treats. The book does include an index.

The book is very well photographed and the composition is pleasant and easy to read. The recipes themselves are clear and easy to follow. Each recipe has a header with special symbols such as nut-free, gluten-free, sugar-free, with a short description of the recipe and approximate prep-times. The ingredients (given in American and metric measures) are listed in a sidebar, along with yields and serving sizes. Step by step directions are followed by nutrient information. Many (but not all) of the recipes are pictured.

We tried the peanut butter cups (p. 120) and have made them twice since the original experiment. They're a huge hit. We also tried the chocolate covered cheesecake fat bombs (p. 126) and they were also delicious.

It might be worth noting that some of the ingredients (nut flours, binding agents, confectioners erythritol) could possibly be difficult to source outside of mail-order or unless the reader lives near a very well stocked specialist grocery store.

Four stars. Highly recommended for people who enjoy dessert treats who are following a keto diet and also nice to have some keto-friendly recipes for work functions or keto-friendly dinner guests.

My husband and I try to eat pretty low-sugar, low-carb. Another version of that diet is the Keto diet, and while we are not strict Keto practitioners, recipes from that realm are often aligned with how we eat. So when I saw Keto Sweet Tooth Cookbook in NetGalley, I requested a copy to look at. I found a lot of recipes I thought I could make, although a few had ingredients I would have to buy for a few of them. I went for one where I had everything on hand.

When you eat consistently in this lower-sugar way, you don't need as much sweet to taste sweet. So to an outsider, the use of ingredients like straight unsweetened chocolate may seem strange, but it makes sense to the people in it. This recipe is lightly sweetened but is mostly high-fat ingredients. They will be shown plain but we are probably going to melt some of our Stevia-sweetened chocolate chips to drizzle on the top.

I found quite a few recipes in this cookbook that I would try:

Vanilla Cake with Fresh Berries
Lemon Coconut Cake with Cream Cheese Icing
Chocolate Chia Seed Pudding
Raspberry Souffle
Chocolate-Covered Cheesecake Fat Bombs
Chocolate Espresso Truffles

Whenever I see the DK logo, I know I'm going to be in good hands. This low-carb, low-sugar cookbook is approachable and filled with gorgeous photography. Recipes range from a basic vanilla cake with fresh berries to a decadent chocolate coconut cream pie.

This cookbook has beautiful pictures that made me want to bake everything. I've tried several desserts myself and so far my personal favorite is the chocolate coconut cream pie and I'm looking forward to making the ice cream sandwich. The wide variety of desserts should satisfy those eating keto who want to indulge their sweet tooth. The recipes are also easy to follow and the beginning is full of great tips for those new to using nut flours.

This book is great for those baking with dairy or gluten allergies as well. A lot of the recipes in this are gluten free due to the use of nut and coconut flowers. The recipes are clearly marked when they are gluten free, dairy free, or free of some other allergen.

I was first attracted to Aaron Day's recipes when I came across a video where he baked and compared several tiny loafs of bread made with different binders. That's when I knew that he works hard on his recipes and immediately subscribed to his channel!

All his concoctions are sugar free and can be enjoyed by people on keto or low carb diets. Many of them would be great for special occasions, though there are some that you can bake everyday if you chose to do so!

There are headings on top of each recipe stating whether it is nut free, gluten free, or egg free. Useful for those who have allergies.

No special ingredients and equipment are needed - an essential criteria for me in a cookbook. In fact, the ingredients are often what I look at first when I open the pages of a cookbook! I think there was one recipe that needed a special brand of ingredient (I forget which one now!)

Almost all the recipes are accompanied by very beautiful photographs (something we've come to expect from DK.)

Thank you, Netgalley and DK for the ARC. This is my honest review in exchange.

I appreciate this Keto cookbook. I love that they go into explaining ingredients as well as having fabulous recipes I will be looking to buy this book.!

5 big stars!! The fact that I am on a keto diet, and still learning, and I can make things like pumpkin cheesecake and chocolate dipped eclairs makes me want to scream with excitement. The pure joy of this cookbook has completely given me a new outlook on this new journey with keto. I can not wait to make and try everything in this cookbook. I did not go into this very confident and something simple as this cookbook, will help me get over any cravings I have. I am so glad I was able to be given a copy of this cookbook.

Thank you to Net Galley and Penguin Random House for a copy in return for my honest review!

Until recently, I was under the impression that the keto diet involved meat and sadness, but now I'm convinced that with a little bit of online research anything can be made to fit the keto diet. This collection of recipes did nothing but confirm that belief and make me want to run to the store.
There are even versions of desserts I was 100% sure could not be turned keto. Rice pudding and biscotti. They're both in here, and I am very curious about the rice pudding!
It has a great introduction to flours and sweeteners for the beginner keto baker, and some great tips and tricks to help your first experiment and beyond go smoothly.

If you're curious about the keto life but are a little hesitant because you'll have to give up the good stuff don't worry. There's still cake. Lots and lots of it.

This book is something I definitely needed in my life and at the same time I probably shouldn't have it. Hahahaha. This cookbook jumps right in. The beginning gives you a little break down about the keto diet, and talks about how sugar affects your body. It covers some basics on flours and other ingredients needed in keto baking. The recipes look delicious! I can't wait to try them all. The pictures are beautiful. You get 80 recipes for keto sweets. I would definitely recommend!

I received this ARC from Netgalley and the publisher in exchange for my honest review.

I’m so impressed with this cookbook! There is such a huge variety of recipes, and I love the fact that there are so many photos- that’s hugely important to me in cookbooks. I am new to Keto, and am really missing my sweets- there are so many recipes here I can’t wait to try! Cinnamon donuts, pumpkin cheesecake, YUM! I can’t wait to bake my way through this book!

I'm a fan of Aaron Day's blog and was excited to get to review Keto Sweet Tooth Cookbook. A lot of times when you go through a cookbook a good chunk of the recipes are things you will never want to make. That is not the case with this one. Aaron is taking our everyday classic desserts and making them keto-friendly! You will find things like Boston cream pie, lemon meringue pie, tiramisu, biscotti and a ton more. I personally love that. These are the recipes we miss being low carb and he's bringing them back on the table.

Keto Sweet Tooth Cookbook has some fabulous recipes to help keep my sweet tooth under control. I loved how easy the recipes were to follow and even more so how delicious each one I tried was!

This is a really beautiful cookbook filled with lots of yummy keto treats! The pictures are so good they make you want to eat everything in the book! (not the best for a diet lol). I am really looking forward to making lots of treats for my family!

I have probably the biggest sweet tooth in the world which is part of the reason I love the Ketogenic way of living. It is easy to still satisfy a sweet tooth but I tend to have much less cravings for sweets when in ketosis for whatever reason. Still, I have mostly made sweet fat bombs and cheesecake fluff and while good those things gets tiring. I love that all of the old favorites are available in sugar free versions in Keto Sweet Tooth, utilizing Keto friendly sugar alcohols and natural sweetners like stevia. If I want a cookie, I can find a recipe in this book. If I need to make a birthday cake there are no shortage of options. All of the recipes in the book sound delicious and I can't wait to get in the kitchen and try many of them out. I recommend this book to anyone living a low carb or ketogenic lifestyle.

This is a voluntary review of an advanced copy.

I loved that this book had such a variety of different desserts and started out with an explanation of the different flours and sweeteners that you need to create each dessert. There is even the nutritional data at the bottom of each recipe so you know what your carb count and calories are for each bite you take!

I did try a couple of the recipes and had to try them a couple of times to get better results so I really wish there was a way to ask questions when I ran into issues!

The chocolate chip recipe was one I tried and I do have to say that this is one time that my husband who does not do Keto wanted a second cookie! Usually, I hear that what I made is not that good so it is high praise when he says it is good and wants another taste!

The layout and presentation of this cookbook is beautiful. The recipes are easy to follow and the photos will make your mouth water and make you want to get in the kitchen and get cooking!
