Dessert Ideas For Atkins Induction Phase

All of the recipes below contain up to about 5g of net carbs, however, the exact count may vary depending on specific brands and products you choose. It is important to keep a very precise count on Atkins Induction, so I will not attempt to include carb counts with these recipes.

Please ensure to count it up yourself based on the actual ingredients you choose. Method: Put cream cheese in a small dish and microwave on High until softened. Lightly beat the egg and stir it in, add sweetener and vanilla extract. Microwave on High for 2 more minutes. Note: This mixture is actually quite nice when “raw” - i.e. without microwaving.

You would have to be very confident about the equality of your eggs though as obviously there are potential health hazards when eating raw eggs. Method: Mix all ingredients together until blended well, spoon into a bowl or a glass and put in the fridge for about 30 minutes. Method: scoop out avocado flesh, mix with all other ingredients and blend well.

Method: Mix all ingredients together in a tea mug, microwave on High for 3 minutes. Method: Lightly beat the egg and yolk. Add all other ingredients except nutmeg and cinnamon. Pour into ramekins and sprinkle spices on top. Place the ramekins in a pan with about an inch of water added.

Bake at 190C/375F/Gas Mark 5 for about 30 minutes or until set. Atkins Nutritionals produce a whole range of Atkins Advantage bars and shakes suitable on Induction. In the UK, they are available on the High Street from Boots and Superdrug. Many (though not all) recipes labelled as Keto or LCHF would be suitable for Atkins Induction. Sweet “fat bombs” also make good Induction desserts. If you crave sugar all the time on Atkins Induction, the right combination of supplements can help. Wish you could have listed the carbs and other nutrional information.

Hi Christine, all recipes listed are under 5g net carbs. The precise count and other nutritional info depend on which product brands you choose. Can i have sugar free jello and no carb whipped cream for a dessert on induction stage? That sounds great and is ok for Induction. Ideally, find a sugar-free jello product sweetened with sucralose, Stevia or erythritol. Does sugar free pudding count as an induction dessert also? Hi Letty, that depends on which sweetener they use, and also on the other ingredients because sugar is not the only source of carbs.

Check the label carefully - both nutritional info panel and the full ingredients list. If all the ingredients are on Atkins Induction list, and carb count is under 5g, then it should be fine. Are all the Atkins Advantage Bars ok on the induction phase? They do not specify on the packages. I’m assuming they are not because some of them have nuts. According to Atkins Nutritionals, Atkins Advantage range is suitable for all phases, including Induction.

However - as you rightly noted - there are many ingredients in them which were certainly not on Dr Atkins’ original list of permitted Induction foods. Technically, the bars are low in carbs. But we all react differently to sweeteners and heavily processed ingredients. Some people can eat low-carb sweets and bars with no adverse effects on their ketosis or weight loss.

For others, they might interrupt ketosis or cause cravings for real sugar. So overall, it is certainly safer to stick to natural foods only during Induction - if you can. If you would really like a treat like one of these bars, be careful - try a small bit first and see whether you are ok with it.

You don’t really know for sure until you try. Best of luck with your Atkins diet! Thanks so much for for these ideas. Thank you Taynaisha, best of luck with Atkins! Do you think its ok to eat a Atkins lift bar for desert? I only count net carbs on these bars.

I count all carbs on my daily diet.and if I count net carbs on the bar. In only taking in between 10 and 15 a day.they kill my sweets cravings for only 4 carbs! Sounds good to me! If you don’t get any adverse effects from sweeteners (some people find they can interfere with ketosis), then why not. Best of luck with your diet!
