Let’s face it: eating your bison burger in a lettuce wrap is a little disappointing. That’s why Unbun made these Keto Certified (and grain-free, paleo and gluten-free) buns, made with a low-carb, high-fiber blend of almond flour, egg whites, flax, coconut flour, psyllium, apple cider vinegar and more. Also check out Unbun’s other “un”-items, such as Uncrust, a keto pizza crust, and Unbaguette—oui oui!
Fat bombs—bite-sized treats that (surprise!) contain a lot of fat—are a popular keto recipe to make at home. Conscious Kitchen does all of the hard work with these plant-based energy bites, made with organic peanuts, raw cocoa, brown rice, pea and hemp proteins, a blend of fibers derived from tapioca and agave, and even shiitake mushroom powder for some adaptogenic support.
It’s hard to believe this decadent-sounding novelty has just 1 gram of net carbs and 1 gram of sugar per serving. To achieve the luxurious flavor of this dessert, Enlightened uses a blend of erythritol, monk fruit, natural flavoring, and full-fat cream, egg yolks, coconut oil and more fat-imparting ingredients. It’s a solid product to keep in the freezer for a special treat. Also check out Enlightened’s keto pints, available in flavors such as Coffee & Cream, Red Velvet and more.
Don’t have time for meal prep? No problem. This keto-friendly soup from the bone broth experts at Kettle & Fire present a heat-and-eat option that contains chicken bone broth, cream, cheddar cheese, broccoli, salted butter, onions, garlic, parmesan and spices such as nutmeg. Make no mistake: this isn’t a low-cal option. Just 1 cup contains 320 calories and 27 grams fat. But in a soup environment where the lion’s share of boxed options contain added sugar, Kettle & Fire’s Whole30 Approved options are welcome.
These big, chewy cookies differ from many keto products in that they are entirely plant-based: no cream, butter, or eggs in sight. Rather, they are made with grain-free lupin and almond flour, and feature just 3 grams net carbs for the whole cookie. Compared with Lenny & Larry’s original protein cookies (which contain a whopping 55 grams carbs for a whole cookie), this product demonstrates impressive, innovative formulation from a growing brand.
Two grams of net carbs and a USDA Organic certification make these almond flour-based cookies a dream to whip up in a home kitchen. We particularly love the cleaner ingredients in this product—rare in a keto snack. Yes, there’s the sugar alcohol erythritol, but there’s also consciously sourced chocolate chips, coconut flour, sea salt, cacao powder, vanilla extract and more.
The plant-based, powdered creamer from Laird’s gets a convenient upgrade: it’s now available in a liquid form! Thanks to Aquamin, a mineral-containing ingredient derived from red marine algae, the creamer blends beautifully into coffee—no clumps at all! This unsweetened version makes the creamer suitable for those following a keto protocol.
A 280-calorie bottle of deliciousness made with coconut milk, milk protein isolate, MCT oil, and cocoa powder for a deep, dark chocolatey taste. Unlike your favorite chocolate milk, this product only contains 1 gram of sugar, 3 keto-perfect grams of net carbs and 15 grams of protein. Sweetness comes from the palatable inclusion of erythritol and stevia. We like!
With a ton of fiber and nutrients—and minimal carbohydrates—over the past several years cauliflower has grown to be the darling of the keto movement. CAULIPOWER, a company that focuses on innovating with this white crucifer, introduces this Keto Certified riced cauliflower heat-and-eat product. Indian-inspired spices such as curry powder and cilantro make this 100-calorie cup sing.
A squeezeable, on-the-go pack, this keto-friendly nut butter is an erythritol-sweetened blend of three unexpected nuts: pecans, almonds and macadamia nuts! The inclusion of MCT powder boosts the good-fat nutrition that many keto enthusiasts seek, and a dusting of pink Himalayan sea salt brings these zero-sugar flavors to life.

Keto snacks emerged onto the natural products scene several years ago, right at the point when consumers were really starting to understand that not all fat was bad fat. In fact, most fats (except hydrogenated fats, of course), could be a healthy part of a diet.
The market was flooded with keto bars and snacks—substitutes that sometimes used chemist-worthy blends of hard-to-pronounce ingredients. The next iteration of keto seems to be a little cleaner, a little more varied (the following products extend beyond bars and snacks), and even a little less dogmatic. A little added sugar may be OK, as long as the total net carbs are around 3 grams.
