My Favorite EASY Keto Mother's Day Recipes!
I know a lot of people like to go out to eat on Mother’s Day, but I don’t really love the crowds and a bunch of other people’s kids all over the place lol. For me I would rather spend Mother’s Day at home, with my daughter and sometimes we get to go to AZ to be with my parents as well. Now that my daughter is older she can cook some easy recipes, so the recipes I’m sharing here are easy enough for anyone to make, whether they spend a lot of time in the kitchen or not!

White Chocolate Macadamia Pancake Cake
If you’ve ever had a white chocolate macadamia nut cookie, then you know it’s a heavenly combination. I love breakfast for dinner, so why not breakfast for dessert? This pancake is big enough for the whole family, just cut it like a cake and serve. I use Choc Zero’s syrup. This pancake cake will serve 4 and also reheats great if you have leftovers.
White Chocolate Macadamia Pancake Cake
INGREDIENTS
4 tablespoons butter or ghee
4 large eggs
4 ounces cream cheese, cut into cubes
1 tablespoon ChocZero Vanilla Syrup (or maple)
¼ cup plus 1 tablespoon coconut flour
½ cup of erythritol
1½ teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons cinnamon
½ cup ChocZero White Chocolate Chips
¼ cup chopped macadamia nuts
4 tablespoons ChocZero syrup for serving
DIRECTIONS
1. In a small microwave-safe dish, microwave 3 tablespoons of the butter for 30 seconds or until melted. Transfer to a blender or food processor and add the eggs, cream cheese, vanilla syrup, coconut flour, erythritol, baking powder, and cinnamon. Process or blend until smooth.
2. Fold in chocolate chips and macadamia nuts until just combined.
3. Use the remaining 1 tablespoon butter to grease a 7-inch round baking dish. Transfer the batter to the prepared dish. Coat a piece of foil with cooking spray and tightly cover the baking dish.
4. Pour 1 cup of water into the Instant Pot. Place a trivet with handles in the pot and place the baking dish on the trivet. Secure the lid on the pot and close the pressure-release valve. Set the pot to HIGH pressure for 15 minutes. At the end of the cooking time, use a natural release to depressurize.
5. To serve, cut the pancake cake into 4 wedges and drizzle each wedge with ChocZero syrup.

Frozen Cupcakes
I’m all about no bake dessert options these days and this one is my new favorite and I love the crunchy bar crust! These Frozen Cupcakes take less than 5 minutes to make and can be kept in the freezer for up to 3 months. This is also such a fun recipe to involve kids in too because they can get creative and add different flavors, fruits and toppings and really make it their own. Add a little whipped cream to the top to make them look extra special.
