These simple gluten-free, low-carb keto popovers require just 6 ingredients to be fluffy, airy and the perfect roll in the main dish! 1 g of net carbs and 11 grams of protein per serving!

Traditional popovers are very light and airy rolls made from eggs, milk and flour.
The batter is very thin, so the popover rises very high and provides a nice, light texture. We make these keto-friendly popovers so we can’t use white powder.
You can get the same results by using a small amount of coconut flour and egg white protein powder, without using white flour that contains gluten and provides structure and its lovely chewy texture.
To make these beauty a good addition, add both baking powder and baking soda and leave it lifted after they bake and come out of the oven.


Traditional popover carbs
According to App Cronometer, a 63 gram popover has 125 calories and 18 grams of carbohydrates. That’s too expensive for those chasing ketogenic foods. It’s probably because it can spike blood sugar and insulin, drive you out of ketosis, and cause cravings.
Keto Popover Carbohydrates
The Keto Popover comes in just 90 calories and a total of 2 grams of carbohydrates with 1 gram of dietary fiber and 1 gram of net carbohydrates.
Keto and low-carb diets are much better and don’t smoke blood sugar levels. One of the keto popovers has 11 grams of protein.

I want to clear this constant question. I get asked almost every day about whether coconut is a nut. The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) claims that coconut is a tree nut that comes from trees, but in reality it is a fruit.
People who have a nut allergy on the tree may also be allergic to coconuts, but being allergic to coconuts is not the same as having a nut allergy on the tree.
My own son was diagnosed with peanuts and tree nut allergies at the age of 2. He is safe to eat coconuts without any problems and is now 14 years old. Coconut is a fruit called drupe. It’s like a peach with a pit.
The American Allergy University, Asthma and Immunology states, “Coconut is not a plant nut. Despite the FDA’s recognition of coconut as a tree nut, it is classified as a fruit.
Allergic reactions to coconuts have been documented, but most people who are allergic to tree nuts can eat coconuts safely. If you are allergic to tree nuts, talk to your allergist before adding coconuts to your diet. ”
Popover Pan – A simple, high-height pan that keeps the popover lifted. Of course, just using muffin pans doesn’t give you that height.
Mixing Bowl Set – Very convenient to have several different sized glass mixing bowls.
The Whisk-A Large Whisk helps you get those perfect airy pockets on these popbars.

Cook ModePrevents the screen from falling asleep
Preheat the oven to 400°F.
Sprinkle generously with coconut oil on the popover pan. While preheating, place a popover pan or 12 muffin cans in the oven.
In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, water, baking powder, soda, salt, egg white protein powder and coconut flour.
Carefully remove the hot popover pan from the oven with an oven mitt. Fills almost half the batter. Place it in a central rack with no rack above, so it won’t stop at the rack when the popover rises.
Bake the popover for 20 minutes, then remove and use the toothpick to make three holes in each popover. Return to the oven and bake for another 5 minutes.
Have fun right away. It’s great to eat fresh.
I tried this with whey protein powder instead of egg white protein powder and it worked but didn’t get much lift and height.
