🏫 What I've Learned
Keto baking is a science and it can be tricky. Almond flour and coconut flour do not contain gluten so they behave differently when baking with them. This was my first time creating my own keto muffin recipes so I did some research before I made them.
Almond flour is high fat, so when baking with it, the amount of fat being used in the recipe may need to be reduced, so there is only ¼ cup of butter in this muffin recipe.
Coconut flour does have binding properties. It will absorb liquid and thicken batter significantly, so you don't need a lot when it is used.
There are a few sweeteners that are approved for the keto diet. I have used monkfruit and erythritol. Stevia is also approved, but I don't like the bitter aftertaste, so I don't bake with it.
Serving Suggestions
Serve these muffins for breakfast a hot cup of black coffee or tea. They also make an good addition to morning eggs cooked your way.
Storage
Store these keto muffins in an airtight container in the refrigerator up to 1 week. They can be stored in the freezer up to 3 months
and thaw at room temperature before consuming.

I baked these yesterday using coconut milk and about 1/2 cup of sweetener as I was running low. They were absolutely delicious! Thank you for the yummy recipe that I’m sure will be a regular bake in my kitchen.

Thi Theresa! Thank you for stopping by and letting me know. I love you used coconut milk. I've been using more of that lately so I will have to make these with it also! Thanks again! ˜Shelby
Wilma Smith
I just made these and they are delicious but can you please tell me how each one can have only one net carb when coconut flour is so high in carbs?
Shelby Law Ruttan
Hi Wilma, Thank you, I'm so happy you enjoyed the muffins! This recipe is made of ingredients that are all keto-friendly ingredients. Each ingredient has it's own nutritional value. Coconut flour may be high in carbs, but it is also high in fiber. There is 1/4 cup in this recipe. 1/4 cup has 12 carbs but 9 grams of fiber. That leaves it at only 3 net carbs for the flour alone. There are 12 muffins in this recipe and when all factors are brought together, they calculate to 1 net carb. I highly recommended visiting a website such as fatsecret.com to calculate the nutrition information on your own if you are concerned about the information here. I have calculated this on my own at fatsecret with the brands I used to make the recipe. My information provided here is only a courtesy and should be used only as a guide. If do you have any more questions about nutrition facts, I highly recommend calculating what you are making on your own.
