The Secret to Moist, Low-Carb Muffins

The key to these ultra-low-carb muffins is coconut flour. It’s a fantastic ingredient for keto baking, ensuring a moist and tender texture that won’t leave you with dry, crumbly muffins.

Important Tips for Coconut Flour Muffins:

Don’t be afraid of the egg-to-flour ratio: You’ll need all those eggs to achieve the perfect texture. Skipping them will result in dry, sandy muffins.
Coconut flour is absorbent: It soaks up more liquid than you might expect, so follow the recipe closely.

Preheat: Preheat your oven to 180°C (355°F).
Combine ingredients: Place all ingredients except the chocolate chips into a stand mixer. Mix on medium speed for 3 minutes until well combined.
Rest the batter: Let the batter sit for 2 minutes to allow the coconut flour to absorb the moisture.
Mix again: Mix again on medium speed for 1 minute, or until there are no lumps.
Add chocolate chips: Fold in the sugar-free chocolate chips.
Bake: Spoon the mixture into 12 lined muffin cups and bake for 20-25 minutes. The muffins are done when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, and the tops are golden brown.
Cool and enjoy: Let the muffins cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes before serving.
