Keto coffee recipe - Dr. Axe

If you’re already a fan of coffee, then you’re really going to love this recipe for keto coffee, also known as “butter coffee.”

In moderation, high-quality, organic coffee can definitely have its proven coffee health benefits. This recipe takes coffee to another level, as it makes that cup of coffee satiating for hours.

Instead of just mainly getting a punch of eye-opening caffeine with a solid dose of antioxidants, this recipe adds in nutritional powerhouse ingredients like grass-fed butter and collagen powder to give you a sustainable boost of energy that doesn’t leave you falling flat a few hours later.

What Is Keto Coffee?

What if I told you that butter in coffee and coconut oil in coffee are not only healthy, but actually quite tasty? It’s true!

Keto coffee gives you all of the coffee benefits plus so much more. No longer will your morning java be a jittery jolt with useless calories.

You may have already heard of the keto diet. One of the central aspects of this intriguing diet, which was originally developed for epilepsy patients in the 1920s, is that it contains a very low amount of carbohydrates and a high amount of fats. In addition to possibly helping followers shed unwanted pounds, a ketogenic diet has even been shown in scientific research to help combat cancer as well as other serious chronic health issues.

Keto coffee — which was made popular by the Bulletproof Diet and which is also called Bulletproof coffee, or butter coffee — is the perfect keto drink, morning or afternoon, for someone following a ketogenic diet. It’s also a way of giving this ketogenic philosophy of eating a try.

Instead of loading your coffee with carbohydrate-rich milk and sugar, you add seriously beneficial fats like coconut oil and butter. Rather than using a blood sugar spiking sweetener, you top your keto coffee off with a nice sprinkle of cinnamon (which satisfies a need for sweet but actually helps to keep blood sugar down).

Coffee with coconut oil and other healthy fats makes for a hot beverage that is highly satisfying. You not only enjoy the richness of this keto coffee, but it also keeps you full for hours. So if you’re watching your weight, it’s actually not a drink to shy away from, but rather it could be a coffee change that helps your weight loss efforts.

Are you looking for a similar coffee drink but without as much fat and that’s usually served cold? You can try so-called protein coffee.
