How to make it keto
Crucially, confirm the goiabada is a low-carb version, made with sugar substitutes and minimal natural fruit sugar from the guava pulp. Ensure the cheese is simply fried without any breading.
Watch out for
Traditional goiabada is very high in sugar. The keto version must be explicitly confirmed. Ensure no flour or starchy breading is used on the cheese before frying.
