Organic Fruit And Veg Guide: Keto Bagel Sponsored

Introducing Cru8’s latest innovation, their Keto Vegan Bagel. This is the answer to everyone’s low carb dreams. This bagel weighs in at just 3.5g of carbs per bagel versus 45g for a regular grain-based one! Made with organic ground almonds, psyllium, golden flax seed, coconut flour, and olive oil, Cru8’s Keto bagel is low carb and low sugar - perfect for a low carb or Keto lifestyle.

Not only is it low carb, it is also a source of protein (8g) and fibre (10g). The high fibre content is essential on a Keto diet, which often lacks this essential dietary element, so the bagels are pro- gut health too! Grain-free, “clean”, with no fillers or other nasties, this bagel has to be the best invention since sliced bread. The Keto bagel is great toasted or as a sandwich bread. The recipe below is for a Keto sunflower seed hummus sandwich, a brilliant alternative to a regular chickpea hummus sandwich.

How to make the seed hummus:

Soak the sunflower seeds overnight. (Drain and rinse well)
Place in a food processor or blender, add all the other ingredients and pulse until desired consistency is achieved. Add a little water if necessary.

To assemble the sandwich, simply slice the bagel lengthwise, toast if you prefer a crunchier texture. On one side of the bagel, layer the lettuce, tomato and avocado.
On the other side, spread two heaped tablespoons of the sunflower seed hummus. Season with a little cracked pepper.

Bring the two halves together and enjoy knowing you’re eating a completely guilt-free sandwich!
