Well, hello there, sugar!

Are you enjoying baking season so far?

I have to admit, Iโ€™ve been dialing back the baking recently since I donโ€™t seem to have self-control when thereโ€™s a plate of something gooey, moist, sweet, and delicious in front of me. But for those of you who love baking for friends and family during the holiday season and are looking for some cleaner options, youโ€™ve come to the right place!

I rounded up some of my favorite paleo and keto holiday dessert recipes from around the interwebs, as well as my favorite holiday desserts from The Roasted Root and stuck them right here! You can use this as inspiration for all the upcoming holiday potlucks, gatherings you may be participating in.

Chances are, there will be at least one person at each who is plaeo or keto..thereโ€™s one in every crowd, right?

  1. This is fantastic. I have watched everyone eating Halloween Candy and felt proud for not joining in, but left out too! I miss having something sweet. Looking forward to trying some of these beauties!

    1. Oh my heavens meet tooo.!!! Halloween candy has always been my thing. I was the parent literally eating all the kids candy. They would try and hide it but I would always find it. I know, I had it bad. One time they found me hiding in my neighborhoods piging out on their candy. So many bad stories. I’m afraid having this will cause me to relapse. I’m a recovering full blown sugar junkie man.??
