Low-Carb Comfort: Easy Keto Chicken Dumplings

Low-Carb Comfort: Easy Keto Chicken Dumplings

Sharing is caring!

Craving Comfort Without the Carbs?

If you thought dumplings were off the keto menu—surprise! These fluffy, savory Keto Chicken Dumplings bring all the cozy vibes without the carb crash. The tender chicken, buttery broth, and soft almond-flour dumplings come together in a way that’s both hearty and oh-so-satisfying. It’s like wrapping your taste buds in a warm winter blanket.

Why go homemade? Simple—store-bought versions just can’t match the flavor or fit your macros. Plus, you’re only a handful of pantry staples and about 30 minutes away from this bowl of pure joy. You know what they say, great things come in (low-carb) packages. 😉

Let’s get everything simmering, shall we? Oh—and if you’ve got some extra herbs lying around, they’d make a killer pesto to swirl on top. Just sayin’.

Grab your spoon, tie up that apron, and let’s dumpling!
