Are you ready for this guys? These taste almost like real marshmallows! They are light and fluffy but there's no sugar they won't be as chewy as the real deal. They're still quite close though!

Initially, I thought these won't be suitable for roasting. Regular marshmallows contain 3 basic ingredients: sugar, gelatine and water. When it comes to roasting, sugar is, unfortunately, the most important ingredient. It's sugar that makes marshmallows caramelise. If there is no sugar, there is nothing to caramelise, right?

Luckily there are a few sweeteners that work: erythritol, Swerve, tagatose and xylitol (allulose also works well and there is no caramelisation!).

Unlike other low-carb recipes that I've tried, these Healthy Low-Carb Marshmallows can be roasted. They work well as topping in pies, muffins or even in my Low-Carb Candied "Yams" - perfect for Thanksgiving! If you want to roast them on a stick, remember to dry them well by leaving them at room temperature uncovered overnight.

Gelatin Substitutions

If you use gelatin sheets, you should use 3-4 sheets for every envelope or tablespoon of gelatin powder (3-inches by 5-inches gelatin sheets/leaves). Based on feedback, Agar powder (a vegetarian substitute) does not work in this recipe.

How to Make Raw Eggs Safe to Consume

If a recipe calls for raw eggs and you are concerned about the potential risk of Salmonella, you can make it safe by using pasteurized eggs. To pasteurize eggs at home, simply pour enough water in a saucepan to cover the eggs. Heat to about 60 °C/ 140 °F. Using a spoon, slowly place the eggs into the saucepan. Keep the eggs in the water for about 3 minutes. This should be enough to pasteurize the eggs and kill any potential bacteria. Let the eggs cool down and store in the fridge for 6-8 weeks.

Martina Slajerova Creator of KetoDietApp.com I changed the way I ate in 2011, when I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s, an autoimmune disease that affects the thyroid. I had no energy, and I found it more and more difficult to maintain a healthy weight. That’s when I decided to quit sugar, grains, and processed foods, and to start following a whole-foods-based ketogenic approach to food. More posts by Martina Slajerova Martina Slajerova
