12 Mother’s Day brunch ideas

Pancakes, waffles and toast

Stack of almond flour pancakes with chocolate drizzle and berries

  • Vanilla Almond Flour Pancakes: Drizzle with chocolate, maple syrup or your favorite pancake topping.
  • Sweet Potato Waffles: Coconut flour helps bind this waffle. No coconut flour? Sub tapioca or arrowroot flour instead.
  • Coconut Keto French Toast: Use your favorite bread here. If coconut yogurt isn’t available, use your favorite French toast fixings like whipped cream, berries or syrup.
  • Sweet Potato Toast: Consider this recipe a template. Pile your sweet potato toasts high with guac, hummus, bacon or even sweet toppings like nut butter and jam.

Egg dishes

Sweet potato breakfast bowl

  • Breakfast Sweet Potato Bowl: When in doubt, slam delicious ingredients together into a bowl. Let this recipe be your guide.
  • Keto Breakfast Tacos: A humble egg acts like a tortilla here. Pile high with your favorite brekkie taco fillings, like potatoes, bacon or sausage.
  • Keto Eggs Benedict: You’re going to want to slather this super-basic hollandaise sauce on everything. It has just five ingredients — including water and salt!
  • Keto Bacon and Zucchini Muffins: The best part about egg muffins: Add whatever diced veggies you have handy, and it’ll taste delicious.

Smoothies and drinks

Raspberry smoothie bowl Mother's Day recipe

  • Raspberry Smoothie Bowl: Also tastes (and looks) amazing with frozen strawberries, blueberries or a colorful berry mix.
  • Keto Dirty Chai Frappe: The spices add chai flavor to this frappe recipe, but leave ‘em out if a coffee frappe is more your jam.
  • Bulletproof Coffee: Treat Mom with a satisfying, energizing coffee that tastes like a creamy latte. No butter? Use ghee instead.
  • Chocolate Golden Milk Latte: This dreamy latte gets its creamy mouthfeel from Collagelatin, but it also works without.

9 Mother’s Day dinner ideas

Poached butter shrimp in pot

  • Keto Poached Butter Shrimp: Not including spices, this recipe is just four ingredients and works great with frozen shrimp. Use your favorite aromatic spices to flavor the broth.
  • Low-Carb Shrimp Pad Thai: Fresh or frozen shrimp plus shirataki noodles equals “How is this keto?” perfection. This recipe also works well with whatever spaghetti-type noodles you have in the pantry. Simply prepare according to package directions.
  • Slow-Baked Salmon and Veggie Bowl: Frozen salmon (or any fatty fish) baked low and slow yields tender, delicious results.
  • Paleo Stuffed Acorn Squash: Try this centerpiece recipe with ground beef, turkey or chicken instead.
  • Paleo Hasselback Sweet Potatoes with Poached Eggs: No sweet potatoes? The hasselback treatment is great with white potatoes, too.
  • Instant Pot Meal Prep Chicken: Stick with dark meat and use chicken thighs instead of chicken legs. If you use chicken breasts, cook for eight minutes instead of 12.
  • Easy Slow Cooked Lamb Barbacoa: No lamb? A fatty cut of beef, like chuck or brisket, will turn into tender perfection in the slow cooker.
  • Low-Carb Thyme and Zucchini Fritters: Good news: You can fritter almost anything. Try Paleo Cauliflower Fritters or Paleo Sweet Potato Fritters based on what you have available.
  • Spinach Empanadas: Tiny! Pies! Fill them with seasoned ground meat instead of spinach for savory perfection.

10 Mother’s Day desserts

Chocolate cake with glaze and strawberries

  • Keto Chocolate Cake with Chocolate Glaze: This dreamy seven-ingredient cake can be made with coconut oil, ghee or even butter.
  • Keto Berry Sorbet: Sub 1 cup of your go-to frozen berries and say “cheers” to Mom.
  • Strawberry Milkshake with Collagen: A little birdie told us this recipe is also great with frozen blueberries.
  • Keto Chocolate Muffins: Canned pumpkin is a fantastic pantry staple, but if you’re in a bind, try an equal amount of steamed sweet potato.
  • Lemon Ginger Low-Carb Donuts: If you’re out of coconut oil, use butter, ghee or a neutral oil instead. For a simpler variation, try Gluten-Free Espresso Donuts.
  • Currant Meyer Lemon Scones: Riff on this recipe with your favorite mix-ins, like blueberries or nuts. Or try Paleo Sweet Potato Scones.
  • Sugar-Free Chocolate Coffee Truffles: Five! Ingredients! Sea salt helps accentuates the flavor of these simple truffles, so don’t skip it. Try kosher salt or Himalayan pink salt instead.
  • Keto Shortbread Cookies: Mix your favorite flavors into this shortbread base, like chocolate chips, lemon zest or almond extract.
  • Keto Protein Chocolate Chip Cookies: Save your butter and use shelf-stable Grass-Fed Ghee to make these delicious cookies.
  • Paleo Pizookie: Arrowroot or coconut flour are great subs for tapioca flour.

Oh, and one last tip if cooking is totally not your jam — support your mom’s favorite local restaurant this Mother’s Day by ordering a takeout meal. It’s an easy way to show you care, and it supports small businesses. Win-win.
