Ingredients

  • 2 cups / 200g almond flour or ground almonds
  • 3 eggs large (or 4 medium)
  • 1 ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ⅓ cup / 60g granulated sweetener
  • ½ cup / 120g yoghurt Greek or natural
  • ⅓ cup / 80g butter melted, then cooled
  • 3 tablespoon almond milk unsweetened
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Optional Add-In
  • ¼ cup / 50g sugar free chocolate chips or chopped dark chocolate

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 180 Celsius / 356 Fahrenheit.
  2. Blend the eggs for 2 minutes until they are frothy and have increased in volume. Then add the other wet ingredients - yoghurt, melted butter, almond milk and vanilla extract - and blend until combined.
  3. Now add the dry ingredients - almond flour, granulated sweetener and baking powder - and blend until you have a smooth batter. Last, stir in the chocolate chips if using, leaving a few to decorate the tops of the muffins.
  4. Fill the batter into a muffin pan lined with paper cups. I used 2 heaped tablespoons per muffin.
  5. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the tops are golden and a skewer inserted comes out clean.

Notes

  • 9g net carbs per muffin (without chocolate chips), 3.8g net carbs per muffin with sugar-free chocolate chips. Makes 8 large muffins.
  • Store in the fridge for up to 5 days or in the freezer for 3 months.
