Keto Slow Cooker Recipes

We are dishing up the Best Keto Slow Cooker Recipes, from breakfast to dessert. Simplify your meal prep and your life with these mouthwatering crockpot meals!

Once upon a time, I didn’t think slow cookers were very useful. Someone gifted us a slow cooker for our wedding and it always gave off a funny smell as it heated up. And I found most crockpot recipes to be bland and overcooked.

Fast forward to today and I have not one but two slow cookers and I use them frequently. And I have amassed quite a collection of delicious Keto Slow Cooker Recipes.

Crockpots help streamline family meals and save on dishes. And many recipes are set-it-and-forget it. Or what I like to call “Dump and Run” recipes, where you simply add all of the ingredients to the pot and walk away!

More than soups and stews

Think outside the box as to what your slow cooker can do for you. It’s not just for main dishes, it also makes excellent breakfasts, sides, and even desserts.

And don’t relegate it just to the colder months, either. You can use a slow cooker to prepare keto meals in the summer, so you don’t have to turn on your oven.

So plug in that crockpot and let’s get cooking!

What’s the best slow cooker?

There are so many brands of slow cookers and multi-cookers, which one do you choose? Here are a few tips.

Look for programmable options like this Hamilton Beach Set and Forget model or the CrockPot Cook and Carry model. While simpler versions are less expensive, you have to be home to turn them on and off at the right times. Programmable slow cookers allow you to delay the start times and keeps the food warm when cooking is finished.

Most recipes make 6 to 12 servings and utilize 5 to 7 quart crockpots. Both of mine are 6 quart versions, which is about right for all of my keto slow cooker recipes. You can go bigger or smaller, but you will need to adjust the ingredients accordingly.
