How can you store these Keto vanilla cupcakes?

If you plan on eating all your Keto vanilla cupcakes the same day you make them, frosted cupcakes can stay fresh at room temperature for up to 8 hours. Unfrosted cupcakes will keep well on the counter in an airtight container for approximately 2 days. If you plan on storing these Keto vanilla cupcakes for a couple of days, we recommend frosting them once you are ready to eat them. Store unfrosted cupcakes and frosting in a separate airtight container in the fridge for up to one week. To store these delicious Keto vanilla cupcakes for longer, wrap each cupcake in plastic wrap individually and store them in a freezer bag in the freezer for up to 6 months. When you are ready to eat, thaw the frozen cupcakes in their packaging to avoid condensation on the cupcake itself, frost them, and enjoy.

Can you customize this Keto vanilla cupcake recipe?

This Keto vanilla cupcakes recipe uses almond flour because it is Low carb and closely mimics the texture of regular flour. However, the closest Keto-friendly substitutes for almond flour are walnut flour or sunflower seed flour. The ratio when using these flours is 1:1 with almond flour. For sweetener alternatives, monk fruit sweetener, sukrin, or regular erythritol work just as fine with these Keto cupcakes, just adjust the amount a little more than the recipe. For the ganache, any chocolate of your choice will work just as well. This recipe uses milk chocolate, however, dark chocolate is also a good alternative.

Can you make this Keto vanilla cupcakes recipe nut-free?

Yes. This recipe can be adjusted to fit a nut-free diet. Replace the almond milk with oat milk or hemp milk. For almond flour, sunflower seed flour or hemp seed flour are great nut-free flour alternatives. Coconut flour is also another good nut-free flour alternative; however, it is highly absorbent. Therefore, avoid using coconut flour, it will make the cupcakes dry and crumbly. It will also change the whole flavor profile of the cupcakes since it has a strong coconut flavor.
