Our Favorite Dairy-Free Keto Bar – $10 Gift Card Included
There are more than 75 different keto friendly protein bars available on the market currently, and surprisingly, nearly a third of them are dairy-free. Of the fifteen or so types I have tried, the original Keto Bar brand is currently my favorite.
If you are interested in finding out why, please read the article in its entirely, and if you are interested in trying them yourself, here is a link to a $10 gift card when you make a purchase.
Keto Bars
Macronutrients
One of the easiest ways to ensure that you are getting the proper ratios of macronutrients required to maintain ketosis, is to consume the proper proportions within each meal or snack. The macros in each Keto Bar aligns extremely well, and only vary slightly between flavors.
The Chocolate Almond Keto Bar for example is 240 calories, and contains 21g of fat, 6g of protein and 4g of net carbs (15g total carbs – 6g dietary fiber – 5g erythritol).
Ingredients
One of the things I like most about these bars are the simple ingredients. The Chocolate Almond bars for instance contains only chocolate liquor, dried coconut, almond, erythritol, water, coconut oil, salt, and stevia. No fillers, no soy, no dairy, and no artificial ingredients.
Taste & Texture
I had originally purchased the variety pack of these bars on Amazon, and my initial thoughts after eating the first one was how much they remind me of the chocolate no-bake cookies my mom used to make when I was a kid.
When I went to the Keto Bars website directly, it was apparent that I was not the only one that made this comparison, as that is how they are described by the company itself.
The bars are thick and relatively hardy, despite their somewhat small size. They are firm and can be broken into pieces, but they don’t crumble or fall apart if you pack them around in your back pack or lunch box.
3 Flavors Available
These keto bars used to come in four flavors, but unfortunately they have discontinued their chocolate covered strawberry bars. My favorite has always been mint chocolate, but the strawberry ones were also pretty tasty.
Size & Price
According to the packaging, each bar weighs 1.65 oz (47g). I unwrapped and weighed several of the bars and was pleasantly surprised to see that they all weighed at least 1.75 oz.
Single flavor bars come in boxes of 10, while the sampler pack includes 12 bars. Oddly, the sampler pack does not currently include any chocolate covered strawberry bars, presumably because it is a relatively new flavor.
If purchased from Amazon, the price is approximately $2.99 per bar or $1.82 per oz. If purchased directly from the Keto Bars website the price is approximately $2.89 per bar, or $1.75 per oz for a single box, but you will save 10%-15% if you buy multiple boxes at once.
You can save an additional 20% ($2.31 per bar) if you subscribe to having bars sent to you automatically, or you can click this link to receive a $10 gift card with your order.
If you are like me and consume snack bars somewhat regularly, you may also want to consider joining the Keto Bars Rewards Program. As a member you can receive additional discounts each time you place an order, on your birthday, or by liking or sharing on social media.
Free shipping is available if you have Amazon Prime. To qualify for free shipping on purchases made directly from the Keto Bars website however, you will need to spend at least $50.
Overall Rating
As mentioned in the beginning the Keto Bars brand is currently our favorite rand of dairy-free keto bars, and I give them a rating of 4.5 stars out of 5. They are larger than many of the other bars currently available and are priced reasonably well. They have super simple ingredients and taste great.
Keto bars also make a great dessert or keto bomb alternative. Check out the Keto Bar website here for additional snack ideas and recipes.
