Ingredients

Chocolate: For this recipe, you will need sugar-free dark chocolate chips.

Seeds and Nuts: Pick up raw sunflower seeds, roasted unsalted pumpkin seeds, and sliced almonds to make these clusters.

Quinoa: Give these clusters a wonderfully satisfying pop of texture by adding puffed quinoa!

How to Make Dark Chocolate Keto Clusters

STEP ONE: Pour the chocolate chips into a small bowl and melt the chocolate in the microwave for 30 seconds at a time, stirring after each interval, until smooth.

STEP TWO: In a large bowl, combine the sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, sliced almonds, and puffed quinoa and stir to mix.

STEP THREE: Pour the melted chocolate over the mixture and stir to fully coat.

STEP FOUR: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and scoop 1 1/2 tablespoons of the seed-and-chocolate mixture onto the sheet, leaving space between each cluster. Place the tray in the fridge to chill for 30 minutes, and then enjoy once the chocolate hardens.

Tips for Success

• Feel free to substitute the seeds and nuts with other low-carb seed and nut favorites, like pecans, chia seeds, or macadamia nuts!
• Adding toasted coconut flakes to keto clusters is also hugely popular! Pick up toasted coconut flakes or toast raw flakes at home.
• Store in an airtight container either in the fridge for up to a week or in the freezer for a month or two.

Is dark chocolate ok to eat on a keto diet?

The higher the cocoa content of the chocolate, the fewer carbs it has, which is why we used dark chocolate in this recipe. When picking dark chocolate for these dark chocolate keto clusters, check that it has at least 70% cocoa and no added sugar. Some brands include sweeteners such as stevia or erythritol, which are keto-friendly and fine to use in this recipe, but others include cane sugar, which is not keto-friendly.

What brand of dark chocolate is keto?

Not all dark chocolate is keto-friendly, so it’s important to check the cocoa content and source of sweetener to ensure you’re not derailing your keto journey. Perhaps the most popular brand of dark chocolate folks like to use is Lily’s, which is pretty widely available and includes a keto-friendly sweetener and fiber to offset the carbs. Lindt, with a high cocoa content, and the Good Chocolate, which is low-carb and contains no sugar, are a few other available choices. Choose the dark chocolate that works best for you and let yourself treat yourself to incredible snacks like these dark chocolate keto clusters!
