This cake is currently being made on a weekly basis in our house. Florence (my one year old daughter) adores it. She sometimes has a slice for breakfast usually with a rather mismatched side of avocado (her most favourite food). Otherwise I will pop it…
A while ago I shared a photo of my pesto pizza creation on Instagram and Facebook asking whether any one would like to trial the recipe. Thinking perhaps a couple of people would respond, I ended up having over 200 requests and since then the…
Walking through the supermarket earlier smelt like I’d walked into a hot cross bun oven. It was inescapable. Out of interest I picked up a packet to look at the ingredients. I gave up after getting to number 20….I wasn’t surprised, of course. But, is…
Having stable blood sugars is something many people living with diabetes dream of. Not having to think about the carbs in foods; being able to be spontaneous and just indulge in delicious treats or drinks without so much as a second thought. But, as a type…
With Easter fast approaching I thought it was time to share one of my favourite baked chocolate cheesecake recipes. This really is a showstopper. It has a beautiful consistency, rich and chocolatey, sweet but not too much and probably the most simple ingredients for any…
A delicious and simple roasted vegetable quiche with a cheddar crust. Quiche is such a brilliant way to use up any leftover vegetables, especially at the end of the week when food provisions are looking a little depleted. It is filling and great for lunch…
I am going to be very honest with you. An email popped in to my inbox earlier this week, which I want to talk about. For some context, I receive between 60-70 emails a week and many more than that on social media, asking for advice,…

A simple and utterly delicious recipe for chocolate pancake swirls. It is a slightly adapted version of my Yorkshire pudding recipe from my festive ebook. Very similar in taste and texture to the inside of a pain-au-chocolat. If you aren’t a chocolate fan then you…
It is with great excitement that I have launched my first e-book, which is available Worldwide. I was fortunate enough to be published last November with my first hard copy book The Low-Carb Diabetes Cookbook. Since then so much has happened and it has been quite…
I made this parmesan puffs recipe up when looking in the fridge and cupboards and realising I had no savoury snacks for Florence, my three year old. With lots of parmesan and some eggs, I threw the ingredients together and in less than 10 minutes…

Hello and welcome to my blog Mrs P's Low Carb Kitchen, thank you for stopping by. My name's Emma. I live in Cheltenham with my husband and daughters Florence and Clementine.
I am a recipe developer, product developer, the author of The Low Carb Diabetes Cookbook (published 1 November 2018). I was diagnosed with type one diabetes in 2005 during my final year of school. I manage my condition by wearing an insulin pump and a continuous glucose monitor. I create delicious lower carb dishes to try and help others with their blood sugar management, especially those with chronic and life long conditions such as diabetes. All my recipes are grain and gluten free. Many dairy free, vegetarian and egg free recipes too. Hope you enjoy and keep in touch.

The most simple, delicious, 2 ingredient dairy-free chocolate mousse, loved by the whole family. I didn’t intentionally make them dairy free, but they work ever so well. My eldest daughter, Florence, adores them, especially served in an egg cup. Great for a little chocolate treat, for post lockdown dinner parties, kids birthday parties etc.
This really is the most simple 2 ingredient chocolate mousse dessert you will find. It ticks so may boxes. Firstly it is divine, smooth and so moreish…but it is also:
dairy free
vegan
low carb
keto
grain free
vegetarian
You can decorate them with what ever you want and flavour them too. A little peppermint oil or orange zest make great additions, as do chopped nuts, chocolate buttons and fresh fruit.
For those that need to know, there are approximately 1.5g carbs per portion. I used 90% chocolate for mine. The whole mixture comes to 11g carbs. If you use a lower % chocolate, this is absolutely fine, just be mindful of any added carbs if you are diabetic and need to carb count. Also, always double check the back of your coconut milk to make sure there aren’t any added sugars. I like the Biona range best, here
If you would like to make it even more chocolatey, then a added tbsp of cacao powder and a sprinkle of cacao nibs works so well.
