Love a good muffin? Well, you’re going to adore these keto Chocolate Chip Muffins! Not only are they super easy with minimal ingredients, they’re perfectly fluffy and the texture is amazing.
These low-carb muffins are seriously one of the best muffins I’ve ever made, keto or not. They’re delicious warmed up with a bit of nut butter on top as well and I just love having them on hand throughout the week!
What are you waiting for? Go whip up a batch of this sugar-free treat!
Need a coconut-free alternative?
Instead of coconut flour you can use almond flour. This substitution will make the muffins fluffier/less dense and more moist/fatty due to the higher fat content of almonds which are also less absorbent than coconut flour (need fewer liquids). The rule of thumb is to use one cup of almond flour for every third of a cup of coconut flour. You will also need to use fewer eggs (three or four will be enough).
