Jamaican patties can be tricky for low-carb diets, as the crust is usually made with wheat flour. Some bakeries offer low-carb or keto-friendly options, but it's always best to check the ingredients.

Hey! Jamaican patties are usually made with a flaky pastry crust, so they’re not typically low-carb. If you’re looking for a low-carb option, you might want to try making a crustless version or using a low-carb alternative for the pastry. They’ll still be delicious with those spicy fillings!

Traditional Jamaican patties usually have a flaky pasty crust, which is high in carbs. So, the answer is no, Jamaican patty doesn't suit low-carb diets. Still, you can make them low-carb by using almond flour crust or ground cauliflower.
