If you're looking for low-carb ideas and haven't previously wandered into the wilds of Pinterest, go there today. Be warned: between low-carb recipes and craft ideas, when I start off in Pinterest I frequently don't come back for days and days.
Do a search there for "low carb pancakes" and "low carb muffins" and you'll be amazed.

I found the cream cheese pancakes tasted like eggs, but not overpowering so. I also didn't add any sweetener, just a generous pinch of salt.
I make mine with sweetener and vanilla extract!0 -
I could never get tired of eggs, but a piece of steak is nice for breakfast too.

The recipe for the whey protein pancake, I usually improvise, but it's always something like:
2 eggs
1/2 scoop of vanilla whey protein (I use Nectar by Syntrax, it has 0 carbs)
1 tbsp of any low carb flour (either almond, coconut, flaxseed flour)
baking powder
and cinnamon, vanilla extract, cocoa powder, chia seeds to your liking

I just tried this one and I can vouch for its deliciousness. Mine was a little tough because I microwaved too long, but it really was like I was eating cake. I wonder how it tastes cold.0 -
Sometimes, I make a batch of these Zesty Cheddar Biscuits: nobunplease.com/zesty-cheddar-biscuits/ They are delicious and store pretty well in the fridge. I'll heat one up in the microwave and add some bacon or ham. (I also usually fry and egg with it as well.) Makes a great breakfast sandwich, and it's quick and easy!0

I've never seen that site before- I just say the recipe for the Peanut Butter Chocolate Brownie Mug Cake. OH MY!
I will be trying this. Thanks for sharing.0 -
They're super light & airy, sort of melt-in-the-mouthy. I don't care for the texture at all, but lots of low-carbers seem to like them.CoconuttyMummy wrote: »

The low-carb microwave mug cakes I've made go tough & dry the cooler they get. I find it's a race to eat them before they turn cardboardy, particularly the ones containing protein powder.
Damn good cure for cake cravings though (which I don't get so often nowadays, thank goodness), particularly when you work out the perfect cooking time for your microwave (and eat it real fast!).
I occasionally do a buttery vanilla micro sponge and either split it and fill with Walden Farms calorie-free jam & whipped vanilla cream, like a Victoria Sponge, or I make a casein 'custard' to pour over it (if in using the 'custard' I'll sometimes pop a dollop of Walden Farms calorie-free caramel, chocolate or maple syrups or jam in the bottom of the mug).
I do a chocolate 'mousse-cake' with 1 egg, 1-2 tbsp raw cacao, a scoop of chocolate protein powder, stevia, some almond milk to loosen to cake batter thickness, and a bit of butter or cream if I have enough fat/calories left. If not I sometimes add some butter extract. I like it gooey but you can cook it longer for a firmer cake texture.

I made the peanut butter mug cake, I gotta say it was delish!
