Keto “Potato” French Fries made without vegetables. 

Those Keto French Fries served together with our Burger Mini Bites, breakfast sandwich or Keto Burgers filled with Basil Pesto and dipped into one of the Sugar-Free Ketchup brings the comfort food in our lifestyle into the final level. 

Your plate will not only be indistinguishable from the filled Carbs fast-food chains but after a few bites, nobody will ever realize those are not real potato french fries. 

Best Ever Keto Dough 

I could not leave this to myself only.

I had to share this revelation with the whole Keto World. 

And you all should do it too.

More of us will share it, more people will find out about it and soon half of the world living our lifestyle will be making various dishes based on Heavenly Keto Dough.

Heavenly Keto Dough

Have you heard of Fathead dough? I am sure you have.

Do you know what Chaffle is? By now you should  

And have you heard of Heavenly Dough? Not yet? Well read further

A mixture of one of the Nut flour together with Xanthan and hot water gets transformed into a dough very similar to the mashed potatoes. 

That is the exact taste you get from anything made with Heavenly Dough. 

Almond and Coconut Flour together

As I have to always experiment a bit further, I have mixed both Almond and Coconut Flour and made the best mixture my family and I love. 

With this dough, I am already in the process of preparation of various recipes for all of you. It started with our Croquettes and now Fries.

Who is Heavenly Fan? 

Heavenly is a genie behind the Keto transformation and upgrading Keto Food to another level. 
She is a magician. Next-generation Einstein in the Keto World.

Remember her name. You will still read it in all the Keto Books. 

In her video, she is explaining how she has discovered this mixture by accident and came up with the idea of making Heavenly Keto French Fries. 

How many Carbs are in the French Fries?


An ordinary french fries made from real potatoes normally contain as many carbs, you might need for the whole week in our lifestyle.

But not Heavenly Fries.
Crunchy or Crispy Fries you are going to make contains only 3 carbs per serving (10 Fries) together with 4 g of Fiber. 
Isn’t that magical and fabulous? And the taste is the same as you would eat ordinary Fries. 

Cooking options for Heavenly Fries.

Even though our preferred option is Deep Frying to get closest to the real crispiness of fries, you can choose from all 3.

  • Deep Fry – best on the middle heat slowly turning the fries 
  • Oven – spray the fries with a bit of oil and bake at 200 Celsius or 400F until golden brown
  • Air Fryer – Spraying fries with a bit of oil Airfry them for approximately 6 minutes

  1. Really like these fries. I froze half and even those turned out great. I am going to double the recipe so I have lots in the freezer when I want some.

  2. We made these and had leftover fried fries. We have the leftovers a second life by popping them in the air fryer and after they warmed and crisped up again, shook them in a paper bag with sweetener and cinnamon. OMG. Churros. But keto!

    Next time, I’d add a pat of butter and a pinch of salt!

    Yum!!

  3. Wow made them today and can’t believe how good they were with as I was bit skeptical.. but glad I took the chance! Definitely recommend for anyone doing low car and I will be making them again. Thank you for the great recipe!!

    Reply
  4. These were delicious! I know for next time to put more salt in the dough, probably a tsp. But what a fun treat.

    I’m thinking this dough would make great little donuts!

    Reply
  5. Made one batch, divided and cooked them 3 ways: airfryer, oven and oil. Definitely will make again using the oil technique. With the airfryer and oven methods the coconut flavor comes thru more than I would like; when fried in oil the taste and texture were by far the best and closest the a real french fry. Thank you for the receipe!

  6. I never comment on recipes but these are the bomb! I got twice as many fries, fried half and baked half. Frying definitely won…thank you so much!

    • It is all mentioned in the recipe card with Print Out Option: 1 cup (100g), Almond Flour
      1/2 Cup (50g), Coconut Flour
      6 tsp(20g), Xanthan Gum
      1 Cup (210ml) boiling water
      Salt & Pepper

  7. I saw the recipe and thought 6 teaspoons of xanthan gum?? I HATE xanthan gum. It’s slimy and weird but I was desperate. Holy cow are these good. After frying,I can’t taste the xanthan gum OR the coconut flour (which I am not fond of either). GREAT JOB #lowcarb_nocarb. You have a clear winner!

    • I am so happy Genevieve, that you do like it. And yes, you are right, you do not feel any ingredient in except Potatoes. That what I feel a tiny bit 🙂

      Reply
  8. Can’t wait to try….. I have a question though. Do you use new oil every time or do you save the oil to use for frying again? Thanks!

    Reply
    • Dear Becky, I hardly ever fry, so for me, it is a yes, every time I use a new oil. But as I remember when I was a kid, people just got the oil to run through thieve or cheesecloth and used it again.

      Reply
  9. Amazing! Great texture and was so fun to make, added a smidge to much water but just took a lil extra time to cut them, totally worth it. The way I Seasoned it Made it taste like amazing Breading, kind of felt like chicken Tenders <3 so excited to do a Dessert Version ?

  10. I noticed someone said it was too much water in the comments. I tried this recipe tonight and I too noticed too much water. When I reread the list of ingredients I saw right away that 1 cup of water for North America is 250ml not 210ml as stated, so we should have put less than 1 cup. This is not the first time I see this. I had the same problems with Ketoserts’ recipes on YT.
    Aside from that, I did make 36 pieces and my non-Keto husband ate 12 of them. I only had 6 because I wasn’t hungry after my hamburger and cheese with broccoli and cauliflower. Really tastes like potatoes. Cooks a batch in less than 3 minutes on the stove in a skillet with oil.

    • I am so so happy you and your husband liked them. They are really something delicious.
      With regards to cups, I know there are different measurements in every part of the word. I personally measure everything in grams as those are the precise wherever you are. I do try to state grams next to almost everything.

      Reply
  11. I was interested in learning about this recipe but was so sad to learn it has xanthan gum in it. I have a sensitivity to xanthan gum that upsets my digestive system. Is there anything I can substitute for it or leave it out altogether? Or am I just doomed to not enjoy keto fries?!
    Thanks!

    Reply
    • Yes, you are right Linda, 10 pieces are one serving. But this is very approximate as everyone rolls the dough a bit differently, cuts them thinner or thicker as well as the length of each fries. So take that as approximate.

      Reply
  12. I just made them in the oven… I don’t think it is an option. Very dry and dull… The dough was very sticky and impossible to roll. Pity it didn’t work for us… Great to see for many it did work!

    Reply
  13. These were soooooo good! I’ve made these with only almond flour in the air fryer before and found them a little dry, but this recipe deep fried is just wonderful! A bit sticky and fiddly to get the cut dough into the pan but worth the effort!

    Reply
    • Yeah, That’s what I have found as well. Mixing both almond and coconut flour makes the dough much tastier as if you use just one flour. Happy you like them, Michelle.

  14. The ad is blocking your instructions. I tried to delete the ad but now the ad white space is still blocking the instructions. I like to be able to see this info to decide if I want to print it out. And a lot of times, the ads print too. Frustrating.

    Reply
    • I would keep it in the fridge for maximum of 3-4 days. Not longer, as it is freshly made. What works really great is freezing the dough. You can split it into smaller portions, or prepare fries into their shapes and let if freeze like you normally would with an ordinary french fries.

      Reply
  15. OH MY GOSH! Just made these for the second time and they are delish and turned out beautifully! I’m thinking this might be a good recipe for other deep fried foods – I plan on experimenting with this recipe. Thanks SO much! They are a hit with my family.

    Reply
  16. These really are as good as everyone says! They really do remind me of the battered fries and without any flavoring taste just like French fries. I have tried another recipe with coconut flour only and it was very bland so I was skeptical going in. I brushed them lightly with almond oil and used the air fryer to cook them at 400 degrees. I checked them every 3-4 minutes, turning them each time. They do puff up as the recipe states. I cut the recipe in half to 2 servings. They are very filling and I am planning to heat the leftovers in the air fryer tomorrow. I made a fry sauce from 14 g mayo (homemade) and 15 g of Heinz No Sugar Added ketchup. Yum! Thank for sharing.
