Keto English Muffin Recipe
Description
The Keto English Muffin Recipe combines coconut flour, almond flour, egg, butter, almond milk, and baking powder to create a single-serving muffin suitable for low-carb diets. The egg and butter enrich and bind the batter, while the combination of almond and coconut flours offers structure and a mild, nutty flavor. Baking powder helps the muffin rise gently during cooking.
The mixture is cooked in a small ramekin either in the microwave for 90 seconds or baked in a preheated oven at 350°F (180°C) for about 15 minutes. Once cooked, the muffin is easily removed, sliced in half, and toasted with butter or toppings of choice. This method provides a convenient way to enjoy a keto-friendly English muffin with a soft interior and slightly firm exterior.
The recipe makes one muffin with approximately 2 grams of net carbs, fitting low-carb lifestyles. Stored properly in an airtight container, leftover muffins can last up to five days refrigerated or frozen for up to three months. Using a 3.5-inch ramekin with a 6-ounce capacity is ideal for consistent results. Adjust cooking time slightly as microwaves may vary.
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon coconut flour 8g
- 1 tablespoon almond flour (extra fine), 6g
- 1 tablespoon butter 14g, salted or unsalted. Use olive oil or coconut oil for dairy-free
- 1 egg
- ½ tablespoon almond milk or other nut milk, 7g
- ¼ teaspoon baking powder
Instructions
- Whisk the egg with a fork in a small mixing bowl.
- Add the melted butter and nut milk. Continue whisking with the fork until combined.
- Now add the dry ingredients - almond flour, coconut flour and baking powder. Stir until a smooth batter forms.
- Grease a ramekin with butter or oil. Then, fill the muffin batter into the ramekin. Level the top and microwave on high for 90 seconds.
- Remove the muffin from the ramekin and turn it out onto a plate. You may need to run a knife around the edges to release it.
- Slice the English muffin in half and serve it toasted and buttered.
Optional: Oven Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180 C / 350F. Instead of microwaving, bake the muffin in the oven for 15 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Notes
- Use a 3.5-inch (9 cm) ramekin with about 6 oz capacity for the best muffin shape and cooking.
- Melt the butter in the ramekin before adding ingredients and swirl to grease the sides thoroughly.
- Microwave cooking time is typically 90 seconds but may need adjustment by a few seconds depending on your appliance.
- Store muffins in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
