Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes
Total Time 30 minutes
Servings: 12 servings

Ingredients
  

  • Almond flour (super-fine)
  • Coconut flour
  • Baking powder (aluminum-free)
  • Salt
  • Granulated keto sweetener (erythritol, monk fruit blend, or allulose)
  • Eggs (large)
  • Sour cream or full-fat Greek yogurt
  • Unsalted butter, melted (or coconut oil)
  • Vanilla extract
  • Fresh or frozen blueberries
  • Lemon zest (optional, but brightens flavor)
  • Cinnamon (optional)
  • Paper muffin liners

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners. Lightly spray the liners if you want extra insurance against sticking.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk 2 cups almond flour, 2 tablespoons coconut flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (if using). Break up any lumps in the almond flour.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk 3 large eggs, 1/2 cup granulated keto sweetener, 1/2 cup sour cream, 1/4 cup melted butter, and 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract until smooth. Add 1 teaspoon lemon zest if you like a hint of citrus.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a spatula until just combined. The batter will be thick but scoopable.
  5. Fold in 3/4 cup blueberries. If using frozen blueberries, do not thaw; toss them in a teaspoon of almond flour first to minimize bleeding.
  6. Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups. They should be about 3/4 full. For a bakery look, add a few extra blueberries on top.
  7. Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until the tops are set and a toothpick comes out mostly clean with a few moist crumbs. Avoid overbaking to keep them tender.
  8. Cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Keto muffins firm up as they cool, so patience helps.
