We all love hot cross buns, but we also need to watch our carb intake whilst following a keto diet. There are many hot cross buns out there, but the traditional hot cross bun has well over 39g of carbs in them per bun & consuming a bun like this will kick you right out of your keto or low carb diet.

So, you struggle to find a low-carb hot cross bun option as you want to enjoy the easter festivities but remain on your low-carb lifestyle. Also, it is so nice to bake hot cross buns with family & friends & fill your home with festive smells. You just can’t beat having them fresh out of the oven! Why should you undo all your hard work in achieving your goals with your healthy lifestyle?

And maybe you also have a nut allergy, maybe you don’t have time to search for a low-carb hot cross bun recipe & then go to the effort to buy the ingredients & not know if they turn out?
