Keto Chocolate Muffins
When you want a small sweet treat, these chocolate muffins hit the spot. They’re quick to whip up and keep well in the fridge (if they last that long!) Use your favorite granulated sugar substitute, and use either cream or full-fat coconut milk in the recipe. For variations, you can add in chopped nuts, chopped dark chocolate, or swirls of different nut butters.

I made these “cupcakes” exactly as is, with the exception of doubling the recipe and substituting monk fruit + erythritol sweetener. They came out rich, intense and chocolaty. Could be sweeter, though I’m thinking the real kicker would be a cream cheese filling or use whip cream (as many others have suggested) to add a bit of sweet and balance the intense chocolate. Will make again!

Love these tasty little chocolate morsels and make them once a week as a treat.. I cut the sweetener in half and add another 1/2 tsp of coconut milk and coconut flour.

Really enjoyed this recipe. I'm doing keto and am sensitive to sweetness (and only like certain sweeteners). Also, had to use ingredients I had on hand. Substitutions: - Used all butter (no coconut oil) - Used pecan butter instead of almond butter - Used macadamia milk instead of coconut milk - Used 1 T coconut sugar, and liquid pure monkfruit extract - Added a heaping 1/4 tsp of cinnamon - Mixed in 1 oz of Lily's dark chocolate chips - Made 6 'standard' sized cupcakes - In spite of all these changes, still baked them for 12 minutes and they were tender, chocolatey and delicious!

I'm allergic to coconut and new to this program. I would love to try but could I get help in the substations for the cocnut?

substitute almond flour and use butter instead of the coconut oil. Use heavy whipping cream instead of coconut milk
AshleyDas 2 years ago
I have not tried these subs in this recipe, but you could try: instead of coconut oil/use Butter, instead of Coconut milk/use Cream, instead of Coconut Flour/use Almond flour, (you might need 1TBS for sub, not really sure cause subbing these flours is tricky)

I think Almond milk could work give it a try

Brilliant! Delicious !!! Came out better than expected. Thank you for sharing this. I made 6 large muffins. I used almond milk instead of coconut milk.

Very tasty chocolate hit. I made 6 regular muffin-sized ones. Used slightly less sweetener as I've been sugar-free for over 3 years. Recommend Dutch processed cocoa for rich flavour without the bitterness. I didn't put the salt in. A little dry, but with a dollop of whipped cream and a sliced strawberry on top, it didn't matter.

These were great. I added a bit more sweetener than the recipe having read the reviews and used a spoonful of light cream instead of the milk. I also made 6 large muffins instead of the 12 mini muffins, just baked for 20 minutes. Absolutely delicious.

Subbed for brown Monkfruit, peanut butter, half and half. Nice chocolate flavor. Would have liked a tad sweeter but great with morning coffee.

Can’t figure out how you got 2.3 net carbs.There are 12.1 carbs and 1.8 grams of fibre. Would that not be 10.3 net carbs?

Deduct the sugar alcohols contained in Swerve they can’t be digested

Just made these this morning. Only had stevia to use my wife said put less in but no I used 1/4 cup. Found this to be VERY sweet taste however with some cream this made them taste delicious. Next time I will half the stevia.

Love these, tastes of chocolate which is a favourite in our house. Used stevia and was sufficient sweetness for me, with large dollop of cream, yummy

My son’s friend is allergic to eggs. What can I substitute for the eggs ?

Great Lakes Gelatin in the red round canister from Amazon. Great for protein/collagen without fat.

You could try a chia or flax egg, but they may not puff up as much as they would with eggs.
