Directions:

In a bowl, mix all the ingredients (not the code, of course). Put the fish in a buttered pan. Then rub the cream on both sides of each piece of code, making sure you add more capers on the top side of the fish.

Add aluminium foil on top of the baking dish, making a few tiny hols with the tip of a knife.

Bake the fish in a preheated oven at 400 F for 50-60 minutes.

Serve the fish with your favorite keto side. Everybody loved the baked cod with capers.

Enjoy!

Pumpkin cheesecake

On By GurmeteIn Recipes

Ingredients:

Crust:

  • 160 g walnuts
  • 1.5 tbsp monk fruit sweetener
  • zest from half lemon
  • 60 ml coconut oil

Cream

  • 1 can unsweetened pumpkin purée (15 oz – 425 g)
  • 8 oz – 226 g cream cheese
  • 4 oz – 113 g room temperature unsalted butter
  • 70 g monk fruit sweetener powder
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Directions:

For the crust:

In a mixer, add the ingredients for the crust, with the exception of the oil. Then transfer in a mold, and add the oil. Mix the oil and make a crust, by pressing with a spoon to make it flat.

For the cream:

In a bowl, add all the ingredients and mix until all is well combined. Pour it over the crust and put it in the fridge over night.

I really recommend to use a detachable mold, so your cheesecake will look nice. I did not had one available when I created this cheesecake, so my desert it ended up upside-down.

But that did not stop my family to enjoy it. It really was good – the lemon zest in the crust was really exquisite. My husband said he would preferred a thicker crust. So, if you are like him, you can double the quantity for the crust.
