Scroll down for 9 healthy keto muffin recipes.
1. Keto chocolate muffins
Yep, you can still satisfy your cravings for sweets *and* muffins without breaking ketosis. Almond flour, plus lots of butter and heavy cream give these muffins their dense, cake-y texture while sugar-free chocolate chips, unsweetened cocoa powder, and erythritol, a sugar alternative, give a similar sweet taste to the traditional stuff.
2. Keto lemon sour cream muffins
As this recipe from I Breathe I'm Hungry shows, sour cream is a keto savior for making baked goods creamy and moist. The batter is a mix of almond and coconut flour, the latter of which pairs perfectly with the lemon, giving the muffins its slightly sweet taste.
3. Sugar-free keto blueberry muffins
Low carb? Check. Sugar free? Check. Delicious? Check, check, check. Blueberries are so tart on their own that the only sweetener this recipe uses is a bit of monk fruit, a natural alternative.
4. Keto banana nut muffins
What would a muffin roundup be without a classic banana nut option? Walnuts, one of the key ingredients, just so happen to be full of healthy fats—score! Like many keto muffin recipes, this one from Hey Keto Mama makes good use of almond flour and sour cream to get the texture just right.
5. Keto snickerdoodle muffins
Not only are these muffins from Kirbie Cravings keto-approved, they're topped with cinnamon, an anti-inflammatory spice linked to boosting metabolism. The secret to their fluffy texture is adding sour cream (yep, that again) and eggs (the keto mascot if there ever was one) to the almond flour-based batter.
6. Ultra moist keto blackberry muffins
Think blueberry is too basic? Use blackberries instead, which offer even more tart flavor. Just be sure to stir them super gently into the almond flour batter to avoid bursting the berries (and thus turning your muffins black). Fortunately, either way, they'll still taste delicious.
7. Coffee cake keto muffins
The key to making coffee cake is all in the crumbly, melt-in-your-mouth topping. In this muffin version from Joy Filled Eats, almond and coconut flour blend does the job perfectly, mixed with butter, cinnamon, and a hint of molasses.
8. Keto lemon poppyseed muffins
Not only are these lemon poppyseed muffins low-carb, they're full of fiber thanks to the inclusion of flaxseed meal. Between that and the poppyseeds and you have yourself a low-carb, high-fiber delight.
9. Keto pancake muffins
It's two usually high-carb breakfast foods reimagined into one, keto-approved bite. The ingredients list is blessedly short too: coconut flour, butter, baking soda, vanilla extract, eggs, and a natural sweetener of your choice. Top with a low-sugar syrup for the full pancake effect.
