The carnivore diet is an elimination diet that focuses on consuming animal products like meat and dairy, and eliminating all plant foods that cause inflammation and irritation in the body.
Most people think that a carnivore diet is bland and only includes savory food — but you can still have dessert if it’s made from carnivore-friendly ingredients.
There are lots of treats you can make with milk, cream, cream cheese, honey, eggs, and maple syrup, plus small amounts of low-inflammatory spices like vanilla and cinnamon.
Here are five of ourb favorite carnivore diet desserts.
Pancakes are an American breakfast staple. You can enjoy your pancakes carnivore style with the same richness and softness, and get in extra protein for your workouts.

50g whey protein powder
1 tsp baking powder

Salt to sprinkle
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 Tbsp grass-fed butter

Instructions
Soften the cream cheese by keeping it at room temperature (25°C) for an hour.

In the same food processor, add whey powder, softened cream cheese and baking powder on low power setting for 3 minutes. The consistency of the batter should be a bit runny.
