Keto Cranberry Orange Muffins
These muffins hit the right balance of hearty and sweet. While fruit like oranges are typically not eaten on a Keto diet, the small amount of orange zest and orange juice give the muffins a brightness and great flavor without the carbs. This recipe uses 6 tablespoons of Swerve, but if you prefer a less sweet muffin, aim for 5 tablespoons of sweetener. You can also make this recipe into mini muffins or a loaf!

Great recipe, but you have a half teaspoon of vanilla listed in the ingredients but not in the recipe itself. Just so you know if you want to redo.

Absolutely delicious. I made it two single servings. I didnt have cranberry so I added blueberries instead. I didnt have coconut milk so I used coconut cream. I forgot to add the vanilla but it was still so good. I added a topping made from 1tsp of coconut milk, about 5 grams of homemade strawberry coulis and a tiny tiny bit of sugar free maple syrup (so 0 carbs for that!). The muffin was still 3 carbs net in total. Thanks for sharing this!

Yummy! I also chopped my cranberries. Instead of juice and zest I added 1tsp orange oil. May cook for less time next time.

These muffins were absolutely amazing! Very light. I did however chop the fresh cranberries after measuring them whole.
