Delicious Keto Carrot Cake – Just Four Net Carbs!

There are some great keto carrot cake recipes out there, but I am pretty sure this is the best one. It does require several different ingredients, but if you are a keto baker, then you should have most of them on hand.

Keto desserts can be very challenging. It seems like you need to buy fifty different ingredients just to enjoy something sweet that won’t knock your out of ketosis. Well, this is different. It uses some pretty basic ingredients and as you are soon to find out. Seriously, there is a great chance you will be able to make this sweet treat without even making a run to the store.

The best thing about this carrot cake is it is just four net carbs per serving. There are 16 servings when you make this, so be careful with how much you eat. The good news is at only four net carbs you can easily afford to eat two pieces or even three if your macros are tight for the rest of the day.
