17 Healthy Keto Snacks That Are Tasty & Delicious

The keto diet is a scientifically proven diet that helps you burn fat, have more energy, and improve overall health. To achieve these benefits, you need to cut back on carbs while increasing your fat intake.

Yet, a common challenge that most ketoers face is finding keto-friendly snacks that won’t sabotage their progress. Because truth be told, most snacks in grocery store aisles are full of carbs. Not to mention hidden sugars.

For that reason, we’ve created this list of keto healthy snacks that help meet your goals. Note that they’re a combination of homemade and store-bought snacks. Continue reading.

Keep these guidelines in mind when choosing a keto-friendly snack:

1 Follows the proper keto diet macros.

The typical macro percentages for a keto diet would be 60% fat, 5-10% carbohydrates, and 35% protein1. Some keto snacks are high in fat while others have both fat and protein but contain very few carbs or none at all.

Regardless, you’ll want to avoid raising your blood sugar levels by choosing snacks with the lowest possible carb count.

2. Nutrient-dense.

A nutrient-dense snack food is one that’s rich in vitamins and minerals. Study shows that foods that lack micronutrients but are high in calories contribute to obesity2

Low-carb keto snacks that are nutrient-rich are usually those that aren’t modified from their natural state. Whole eggs and vegetable sticks, for example. But, if you want an on-the-go keto snack for convenience, always check the nutrition facts label for vitamins and minerals.

3. Doesn’t contain hidden sugars.

These are sugars that were added during food production. Whether these sugars are natural such as cane sugar and brown sugar, or artificial such as HFCS, it doesn’t matter. Sugar is sugar and it needs to be avoided on keto.

Sugar comes in all sorts of names. Watch out for the following on an ingredient list: Maltodextrin, dextrose, data sugar, castor sugar, coconut sugar, ethyl maltol, molasses, and treacle 3.
