Easy & Crispy Keto Coconut Clusters Recipe

by Pam Berg

When following a keto diet, it is important to find yourself some snacks that will satisfy your sweet tooth. Making your own coconut clusters that are low in carbohydrates is very easy and you can have snacks in less than an hour, start to finish.

They are also a delicious gluten-free snack for those adhering to that diet.

Is Coconut Allowed on Keto Diet?

Coconut is something you can enjoy when following a keto diet. The key is to find unsweetened coconut.

When reading labels carefully, you will note that many times coconut flakes and coconut chips have added sugar. If you crave the sweetness, you can purchase the unsweetened kind and add some artificial sweetener.

Are Coconut Clusters Healthy?

Coconut clusters can be very healthy. When making your own clusters, choose unsweetened products. As you choose additions for your clusters, be cognizant that some options are higher in calories and carbs than others.

Are Coconut Keto Clusters Vegan?

The only non-vegan item in our healthy recipe is honey. One could substitute it with vegan honey, which is plant-based.
