Are Macarons Keto?

Macarons are not keto-friendly because they are high in carbs and they contain sugar.

Too Much Carbs!

Macarons should be avoided on keto because they are very high in net carbs (50g of net carbs per 100g serving).

It is important to limit your net carb consumption to 20g - 30g per day to stay in ketosis. You can calculate your ideal daily net carb allowance by using this keto macros calculator.

As an alternative, you may look for other desserts that are low in net carbs.

Contains Sugar

Sugar is a high-glycemic sweetener that can raise your blood sugar level and prevent you from reaching ketosis.

As an alternative, you may look for other desserts that use keto-friendly sweeteners like stevia, monk fruit, or erythritol.
