Keto Easter Buns, Anyone?

NASSAU, BAHAMAS – Many Bahamians suffer from chronic non-communicable diseases such as diabetes. Reaching for that hot cross bun today may mean putting their health at some risk.

But a keto friendly bun is making its way in the homes of many wanting to enjoy the delectable treat. And if you’re just on a better health mission then this one is for you.

“Guilt-free perfection” is how ‘Gimme Gourmet’ Owner Otereo Obainyear sums up his ketogenic take on classic hot cross buns.

The keto diet has become popular and favored by some persons suffering metabolic disease, such as diabetes.

Research suggests that people with Type II diabetes can slim down and lower their blood sugar levels because of its low carb characteristics.

It’s exactly what makes the Gimme Gourmet hot cross bun guilt free.

And if that’s made you more interested, Obainyear gave me a glimpse into his top secret recipe: nut flour, plant based oil and other classified ingredients.

It was seeing his grandmother unable to enjoy the classic bun due to a metabolic condition that he says made him go the extra mile to help so many others experiencing the same conditions not miss out on the Easter classic. And for him, it’s the best feeling in the world.
