Can You Eat Bran Flakes On Low Carb Diet
This yummy low carb and Keto cereal has just 97 calories and less than 1g net carbs. Not too shabby for a bowl of bran flakes.
I should mention at the outset, that there is no bran in these Keto bran flakes.
I should probably have put air quotes around it. We're making "bran" flakes today. Yep, that's a lot more accurate.
The low carb cereal we are making today is actually composed of Almond Flour, Flax and Hemp Seeds and, how should I put this?
I'll just say it. The secret ingredient is Parmesan Cheese. But don't knock it before you've tried it! You don't actually taste the cheese in this cereal at all. But it does bind the ingredients together quite nicely.
Here, let me just show you how to make Keto Bran Flakes Cereal.
To make these "bran" flakes, you start by mixing together ¼ cup Almond flour, 3 TB Flaxseed Meal, 1 TB Hemp Seeds, 2 TB Sugar-Free Sweetener, 2 TB Parmesan Cheese and ⅛ tsp Salt in a medium sized bowl.
Add 1 TB water and mix well to combine. Let it rest for a few minutes so that the water can be absorbed.
Press the dough into a ball and place it on top of a silpat silicone mat. Cover with a piece of parchment paper and roll the dough out as thin as you can.
Bake in a 300 degree F oven for 6-8 minutes until the edges of the dough just start to brown. Remove the pan from the oven and open the oven door to let out all the heat. Then pre-heat the oven to 225 degrees F.
Let the dough cool on the pan for 20 minutes and then crumble it into flakes.
Bake in the 225 degree F oven for 35-45 minutes until the flakes are medium brown in color. Leave the flakes out, uncovered, for the next 12 hours to allow cereal to crisp up more.
And that's about all there is to making Keto Bran Flakes Cereal.
Add a few berries and pour some nut milk on top and you'll have yourself a healthy low carb breakfast. This yummy low carb cereal has just 97 calories and less than 1g net carb. Not too shabby for a bowl of bran flakes.
Sorry, I meant "bran" flakes.
