You’re trying to stick to keto but the same old boring meals are driving you crazy. Eggs for breakfast again? Salad for lunch? And don’t even get me started on those sad bunless burgers for dinner.

It’s enough to make you want to throw in the keto towel and faceplant into a pile of pasta.

But wait! That’s where Heylo's Recipes come in.

From breakfast to dessert, we’re about to serve up some of the best keto meals that will have you forgetting all about those carb-loaded temptations.

First up we’re starting with breakfast. Because let’s be honest mornings are hard enough without having to wrestle with complicated recipes or - heaven forbid - skip the most important meal of the day. We’ve got some winners that will get your day started right and keep those carb cravings at bay.

And the best part? We’ve added some Heylo magic to make these recipes even easier. Our low-carb goodies are the secret weapons in your keto arsenal. 

Let's get to the breakfast options...

Low-carb & Keto doesn’t mean boring breakfasts. We’ve got some winners to get you started!

From cheesy toast to fluffy pancakes, these recipes use Heylo’s products to keep things delicious and keto-friendly.

Want to start your day with a classic that won’t blow your keto diet? 

Our triple cheese on toast is a winner. 

Here’s the deal: We’ve topped Heylo Seeded Low Carb Bread with a trio of cheese powerhouses - sharp cheddar, nutty parmesan and tangy roquefort. It’s an absolute cheese fest in your mouth!

This is such a quick and easy recipe to make. 

1. Simply pop the grill on high, 
2. Toast one side of the bread, 
3. Add the cheese mix to the other side and pop back under the grill. 
4. Voila! A golden, bubbly slice of heaven.

But it’s not just about taste. This cheesy goodness is packed with fats and protein. Keto fuel for your body to start your day.

Want to make it a meal? Throw a salad on the side. It’s good for brekkie or dinner (Or anytime really!) - super versatile!

So go on, enjoy this classic while also keeping the carbs in check. It’s cheese on toast, but not as you know it!

Missing those decadent weekend brunches? Our Keto French Toast is here to save the day!

We’ve dipped Heylo Artisan Seeded Bread in a luxurious egg bath. Whisked with heavy cream this mixture turns our bread into a protein packed powerhouse.

The magic happens in the pan. A quick dip, a sizzle in melted butter and you’ve got golden brown slices with a crispy outside and a custardy inside. Beautiful!

Top with keto-friendly sugar free syrup or smashed avo for extra oomph. 

Feeling naughty? Add some crispy bacon :)

This dish really is like a chameleon - dress it up or down with your favourite low-carb toppings. Proof that keto can be yummy and fits into easy keto dinners. The perfect quick and easy low-carb recipe!

One thing I missed the most while starting keto was my favourite sandwich... The BLT. That is no longer an issue!

We’ve swapped out the high-carb bread for Heylo’s Artisan Seeded Loaf or Lighter White Keto Bread, turning my favourite sandwich into a keto possibility!

Start by crisping up some thick-cut bacon (Or streaky if you prefer). While that’s cooking, spread a generous amount of mayo on your bread slices. Add crisp lettuce and ripe tomatoes, then top with that golden bacon.

The result? A sandwich that’s packed with flavour and ready in 10 minutes. Perfect for those mad morning dashes out the door.

This BLT isn’t just delicious - it’s a nutritional bomb. You’ve got protein from the bacon, vitamins from the veg and good fats from the mayo (Especially if you go organic like me). A balanced meal that will keep you going till lunchtime.

Try it out - it might just become your new brekkie go-to!

Craving a real American breakfast without the carb coma? Our keto pancakes are the answer.

We’ve given the classic recipe a low-carb makeover using crumbled Heylo Lighter White bread. 

Mix with egg, milk, a splash of sweetener and baking powder. The result? Light and fluffy pancakes that will make you forget you’re eating healthy.

These pancakes are quick as a flash - 15 minutes max. Perfect for those mornings when you want something a little special but don’t have all day to cook.

The best part of these pancakes is how you can dress them up. Sprinkle with low-carb fruits like berries, add a dollop of crème fraîche, or pour over low-sugar syrup. It’s like having dessert for breakfast... minus the shame :)

 Soft, satisfying, and so yummy, who says you can’t have pancakes on a keto diet?

Looking for a breakfast that’s a bit different? Our keto breakfast taco is here to shake things up.

The secret’s in the shell - we’ve swapped out the tortilla for a cheese base. 

1. Just sprinkle shredded cheese in a hot pan and watch it turn into a crispy taco shell.
2. Crack an egg on top and cook to your liking. 
3. Then go wild with the fillings. Avocado for healthy fats, ham for extra protein or onions for a flavour hit - the choice is yours.

Enjoy it handheld for a quick snack, or lay it flat on Heylo’s low-carb toast for a knife-and-fork affair.

Want to turn up the heat? A dash of salsa or hot sauce will do the trick. 

Quick, easy and infinitely customisable - this breakfast taco ticks all the boxes.

Our Creamy Keto Tomato Soup is perfect for those chilly days.

We start by sautéing a mix of veggies - onions, red peppers, celery and garlic - in a big knob of butter. In goes the stock (chicken or veg, your choice), tinned tomatoes and a handful of herbs. 

Let it simmer for 20 minutes, taste it halfway through to make sure the seasoning is on point.

Once it’s simmered we blend it up smooth and stir in a splash of cream. The result is a creamy, low-carb, gluten-free soup that will warm you up.

Serve with some of Heylo’s low-carb bread for dipping and you’ve got yourself a proper lunch. It’s easy to make and great for batch cooking.

Not a fan of Tomato Soup? Then why not try our Cheese & Bacon Version?

We start by sizzling garlic in butter. Then in goes cauliflower, cream and chicken stock for a 20 minute simmer. Blend it all up and you’ve got yourself a creamy base that’s a bowl of low-carb comfort.

Now we get to the tasty part... We add chopped bacon and a big handful of parmesan. And for that extra kick, we add crispy bacon croutons on top. It’s naughty but not carb-guilty!

This little number takes 40 minutes to make - perfect for those days when you’re running around like a headless chicken but still want something fancy.

Serve it hot with one of our low-carb white rolls on the side. Perfect!

Want a side that’s crunchy, tangy and won’t blow your carb count out of the water? Our keto coleslaw may be what you are looking for!

Ditch those sugar-laden supermarket versions. We’ve given this classic a low-carb makeover and you’ll be going back for more.

1. Grab 400g of cabbage (red or white, your choice) and 100g of carrot. 
2. Chop them up and mix. 
3. For the dressing whip up a mix of mayo, a splash of vinegar (rice or apple cider) and a pinch of celery salt. 
4. Toss it all together and Bob’s your uncle!

The best bit? It takes only 10 minutes to make. It goes with BBQ, adds some zing to a sandwich or stands alone as a side. Make a big batch and keep it in the fridge - it’ll keep for days.

So go on, add some crunch (And some much-needed fibre) to your keto meals.

Sick of eating burgers without the bun on keto? 

Yeah, it can be pretty desperate at times! And no one can tell me that replacing bread with lettuce is a suitable replacement for that first bite into a traditional bunned burger!

Our Low-Carb Burger is a game-changer. We’ve replaced the stodgy bun with Heylo’s Lighter White Rolls. This keeps your carb count down without sacrificing the full burger experience you and I crave.

Now, let’s talk patty. We’re talking juicy beef, cooked in a hot pan. And just when you think it can’t get any better we add a slice of cheese on top. It’s naughty but not guilty.

While your burger’s having a little rest (Always rest your meats!), pop that roll in the pan for a quick toast. It’s those little extras that make a good burger great.

Now it’s your turn to get cooking. Want some crispy lettuce? Add it. Juicy tomato? Go for it. Just watch those sauces - we want to keep it keto after all!

Just like our Low-Carb Burger, we’ve given the classic hot dog a keto makeover, replacing the stodgy bun with a Heylo Sub Roll. 

This simple switch from your normal carby sub roll keeps your hot dog experience a keto-friendly one!

First things first, let’s talk sausage. We’re not messing about here - only the best will do. Get those bangers on the grill and let them sizzle until they’re nicely charred. It’s all about that smoky flavour, right?

While your sausages are doing their thing, slice up that sub roll and get your toppings ready. We’re talking low-sugar ketchup and crispy onions - all the flavour, none of the carb guilt.

Assemble, and enjoy! Easy!

Want to make it a meal? Chuck a simple salad on the side. And here’s a pro tip: mix up your sausages and toppings. The possibilities are endless!

Time to bring a British classic to your low-carb plate! Our Keto Toad in the Hole is just like the original, just without the carbs.

We’ve created a recipe that’s quick and easy. In 40 minutes you’ll have a golden, puffed masterpiece fit for any keto meal plan.

1. We start with browned sausages, 
2. Then pour over a clever batter made from eggs, arrowroot powder, almond flour and dairy-free milk. 
3. Pop it in the oven and let the magic happen!

For that perfect crisp, we recommend using avocado oil or light olive oil. And don’t forget the finishing touches - a rich gravy and some buttered Heylo low-carb white bread to mop up all those lovely flavours.

This is a flexible dish for family meals or gatherings, catering to different diets and still full of flavour. Packed with protein and healthy fats, it’s a keto feast that will leave everyone full.

So get cooking and add this Toad in the Hole to your low-carb rotation!

Whether you’re cooking for one or for a crowd, these dinners show that keto can be both filling and tasty. Say goodbye to tiresome evening meals and hello to full-flavoured feasts that won’t kick up your blood sugar.

There’s nothing like a good beef stew when it’s cold outside. Our keto version has all that traditional food comfort you are seeking, but while staying in ketosis.

This is easy to make, we’ve kept all the flavours you love, just with a few tweaks to make it keto.

1. We chuck in turnip, carrots and thyme into a casserole dish. 
2. Then we sauté some onions and add them to the mix with a big chunk of beef chuck steak. 
3. A splash of bone broth or stock and it’s in the oven for a nice long time.
4. After two hours you’ll have a stew that’s lovely - meat and veg in a rich broth. 

For the finishing touches we recommend serving with buttered Heylo seeded rolls. They’re low-carb and add that extra bit of indulgence. Or serve with cauliflower rice for a low-carb side that goes with the stew perfectly.

A sprinkle of chives, maybe some veggies on the side and you’re done. 

Comfort food at its best, no carb guilt.

Sunday roast enthusiasts, happy days! We’ve found a way to make keto Yorkshire puddings. You no longer have to miss out on this British classic just because you’re watching your carbs.

Our clever recipe replaces the wheat flour with a blend of almond flour and arrowroot powder. The result? Light, crispy puds that will make you forget you’re on a diet. These are also very easy to make: 

1. Mix eggs, our special flour blend and dairy-free milk. 
2. Heat some oil in a baking tin, 
3. Pour in the batter and let the oven do its magic for 15-20 minutes.

These Yorkshire puds are more than low-carb - they’re protein packed thanks to the eggs. They’re perfect for mopping up gravy and going with your favourite roast meats.

Whether it’s a family Sunday lunch or a holiday feast, these keto Yorkshires let you indulge in tradition without hampering your low-carb lifestyle.

Craving spicy keto meal ideas? Our Keto Buffalo Cauliflower is here to save the day!

This is a versatile dish - serve as a starter, side or main for your veggie mates. It’s low carb but packed with fibre, vitamins and antioxidants.

1. Chop the cauli into bite sized pieces, 
2. Toss with olive oil, hot sauce and a blend of spices. 
3. Pop in the oven for about 20 minutes and you’ve got a plate of crispy, golden nuggets of goodness.

Want to mix things up? Try adjusting the spice levels or add a sprinkle of garlic powder for extra punch. Want them extra crispy? Coat in almond flour before they go in the oven.

These are great on their own but also top notch as a topping for cauliflower mash or scattered over a salad for a bit of heat. For a low-carb side, serve with zucchini noodles.

Indulge in the Italian without foiling your low-carb lifestyle. Our Keto Lasagna has all the comfort of the classic with only 9g net carbs per serving.

We’ve reinvented this Italian classic, swapping the starchy noodles for a clever combination of melted cheese and eggs. The result? All the layers you love, without the carb guilt.

Our Keto-Friendly Chicken Milanese has all the crunch and flavour you love but still under 5 total carbs per serving.

The magic is in our use of Heylo Lighter White as a breading alternative. Blitzed into crumbs, it’s a crispy coating that rivals traditional breadcrumbs, without the carbs.

1. Butterfly and flatten a chicken breast, dip in seasoned beaten egg
2. Coat in our Heylo crumbs. (We sometimes double-coat the chicken for extra crunch) 
3. Pop in the oven for 20-25 minutes, flip once and you’re done.

Served on a fresh salad this is a feast for the eyes and the taste buds. A classy, satisfying meal that proves low-carb doesn’t mean low on flavour or presentation.

Let’s get into some sweet treats that will make you forget you’re even on a diet. It’s time to put dessert back on the menu!

Treat yourself to a taste of Scotland with our keto version of Cranachan. This low-carb dessert has all the flavour of the original but with a Heylo carb reduction!

We’ve paired luscious clotted cream with Heylo Honeycomb granola for crunch. A hint of vanilla and a handful of fresh raspberries for depth and tartness.

The beauty of this dessert is in its simplicity. You can make it in 10 minutes so perfect for those impromptu cravings or last minute gatherings.

But it’s not just about taste. This Cranachan is a nutritional superstar, with healthy fats from the cream and antioxidants from the berries. The granola adds some fibre and texture.

For the adventurous a splash of whisky turns it into an adult dessert, the flavour is enhanced without the carb count being impacted!

Reinvent a British classic with our keto Blackberry Crumble. 

We’ve swapped out the high-carb ingredients for Heylo’s Lighter White breadcrumbs and Honeycomb Granola to create a topping that’s just as good as the real deal.

Blackberries, being lower in carbs, sit beneath this delicious topping. A quick blast in the oven (or even quicker in an air fryer) turns this simple construction into a warm, comforting treat.

But it’s not just about indulgence - Blackberries are packed with antioxidants and Heylo’s low-carb bakery products keep the carb count in check.

Serve warm with a scoop of low-carb ice cream for a satisfying, keto dessert. This is proof that following a low-carb lifestyle doesn’t mean missing out on the classics!
