“What snacks can I eat on Keto?”
Starting Keto two years ago, I had to learn my lesson the hard way:
Using willpower to ‘hush hunger’ doesn’t work for everyone.
I can’t count how many times I’d fallen off the Keto bandwagon because I got tempted by a snack that used up all my precious carbs!
And nope. No amount of treadmill hours could reset that.
It went on for months. Then one day I got honest with myself and… started experimenting with Hacks that don’t require giving up my favorite treats.
What if it was possible to re-invent all my childhood favorite snacks into healthy, guilt-free versions? ✨ Cut the carbs. ✨ Cut the calories too.
What if I could enjoy the treat without the cheat?
Hi, I’m Helen, founder of Schoolyard Snacks.
Long before our Keto puffs and Keto cereal got featured in Women’s Health, GQ, Vox and more… I set out to taste-test popular Keto snacks for two reasons.
The first one is obvious, some of us just love to eat.
Some days I would just get tired of nuts, jerky and another plate of baby carrots. I really missed ‘that crunch.’
Secondly, I needed something that was both healthy and a great substitute for the real thing.
That’s how this Top 7 Keto Snacks list was born.
There’s something for everyone. Whether you’re obsessed with peanut butter or you’re a chip monster at heart.
1. Keto Cheddar Cheese Puffs
Do you remember crunchy cheese doodles that make your fingers orange? Well, these Schoolyard Snacks Cheddar Cheese Puffs are a great swap, with only 1 net carb per bag! These are also high in protein and only 100 calories. And people can’t get enough...
2. Peanut Butter Cereal
One of my favorite breakfasts growing up was Reeses' cereal. Unfortunately, it turns out I was closer to having candy for breakfast. Yikes!
However, if you absolutely can’t live without all things peanut butter (who can blame you, right?), I created this Keto-friendly Peanut Butter Cereal that is to die for! Here’s what one peanut lover has to say:
3. Keto Cookies
Imagine 50 calorie cookies that taste as good as the real thing?
We couldn’t believe it either.
Why throw your diet into a spiral when you can devour sugar-free cookies that are tasty, grain-free and keto.
Best part, these are only 1-2g of net carbs per serving. Crunchy texture and are the perfect bite when you want a quick and delicious snack! 👉 Go here to see which flavors are available
4. Keto BBQ Puffs
Mmm...the smokey sweet flavor and hearty crunch of barbecue chips! Did you know BBQ chips were the first flavored potato chips introduced and remain the most popular chip flavor in the nation?
Although you can find BBQ chips in just about every corner store, supermarket, and vending machine in the nation, they're definitely one of the first things to kick out of your pantry and avoid buying when you start Keto or any healthy eating plan.
But if you love BBQ chips, don’t fret! Schoolyard Snacks Keto BBQ Puffs only have 2 net carbs in an entire bag, and they’ve got all the crunch and flavor! Here’s what fans on Facebook have to say:
👉 Tear Into BBQ Crunchiness and Still Get Ahead on Keto
By the way, did you know that crunchy foods actually help satisfy our cravings by tricking our brains into thinking we’re eating junk food?
5. Keto Crackers
Nobody likes ditching their favorite salty snacks the day we go low carb.
Would Keto crackers made of clean, whole food ingredients fire up our taste buds?
“These are the best tasting low carb crackers my husband & I have tried- and we’ve tried a lot” -Jennier
We challenge you to eat Just one. Five exploding flavor, nearly no carbs and only 50 calories
6. Sour Cream & Onion Puffs
Mmm...the perfectly tangy and always enjoyable crunch of sour cream and onion chips!
Although you can find sour cream and onion chips in just about every corner store, supermarket, and vending machine in the nation, they're definitely one of the first things to kick out of your pantry and avoid buying when you start Keto or any healthy eating plan.
But sometimes, you just want to dive into a bag of potato chips, and that's OK! We all get those salty, crunchy cravings, am I right?
Enter these Sour Cream & Onion Puffs. All the crunch, none of the carbs! They're so good they've been featured by GQ, Women's Health, and Men's Health.
7. Keto Marshmallows
Everybody knows that marshmallows are big no-no on a healthy diet because they are chock full of sugar. But what if they were sugar-free? And zero net carbs too?
We were skeptical too until we flipped to the ingredients list. Get this, each yummy bite is fueled with collagen and MCT oil.
You can even roast these little miracles. Miracles because ech marshmallow is only 10 calories (that’s like 1.5 almonds).
