About the Recipe
Ingredients
Ingredients:
- 2 cups almond flour
- 1/4 cup coconut flour
- 1/4 cup granulated keto-friendly sweetener (such as erythritol or stevia)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 2 tablespoons melted coconut oil
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 medium apple, peeled and finely chopped
- 1/4 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease the cups.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, sweetener, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Mix well.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the applesauce, melted coconut oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.
4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until a smooth batter forms.
5. Gently fold in the chopped apple and chopped nuts (if using).
6. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full.
7. Bake for approximately 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
8. Once baked, remove the muffin tin from the oven and let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Then transfer them onto a wire rack to cool completely.
