2 cups almond flour
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/3 cup low-carb sweetener (e.g., erythritol or monk fruit)
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
Pinch of salt
3 large eggs
1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup sugar-free peanut butter
Instructions:
Preheat and Prepare Muffin Cups: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease the cups.
Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together almond flour, cocoa powder, low-carb sweetener, baking powder, baking soda, and a pinch of salt. Ensure the dry ingredients are well combined.
Blend Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, beat the eggs and then add almond milk, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract. Mix until the wet ingredients are thoroughly combined.
Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be cautious not to overmix, as this can affect the texture of the muffins.
Create Peanut Butter Swirl: In a small bowl, warm the sugar-free peanut butter until it’s easily pourable. Drop spoonfuls of peanut butter onto the muffin batter in each cup, and use a toothpick or skewer to create a swirl effect.
Bake: Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups and bake for approximately 18-22 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
