One of Dan’s many favorite sweet treats is Snickerdoodles. (I say ‘many’ because the man has a serious sweet tooth!!) So how do I satisfy the big guy’s cravings while keeping his macros in mind? By getting creative in the kitchen of course! These Snickerdoodles are not only gluten-free but sugar-free AND keto-friendly for all of you keto lovers out there!!
