Keto Buffalo Style Hot Wings
Keto Buffalo-style Hot wings are the perfect comfort food. Low carb and great tasting, there’s no doubt about that. They’re great for entertainment. Great for the holidays with the family. Most satisfying after a long day of work.
Buffalo-style hot wings are great for keto. The flavor is always there, packed with protein very low carb. There are many ways to break ketosis while enjoying wings.
The main culprit is your choice of sauces. Honorable mentions include the oil that your wings were cooked in. Also, if your wings were cooked in a batter or coating not suitable for keto. My keto buffalo-style hot wings use neither ingredients when prepared.
When it came to finding a good wing restaurant on the go, It would always be difficult for me. One place wouldn’t batter their wings but fry in canola or soybean oil. Those oils are refined and contain trans fats that can lead to obesity.
I would also have different sauces that had a sweet taste when I thought I ordered a savory sauce. Only to find out later those sauces contained traces of corn syrup or high fructose corn syrup.
I’ve chosen healthier fats to choose from, like avocado oil, for this recipe. I even included the sauce recipe, but you can pick any favorite Hot sauce.
I’m not a blue cheese guy. I’m more of a buttermilk ranch dressing guy. For my ranch lovers who love to dip wings in the creamy dressing. Enjoy and have a wonderful day!
