Low Carb Coconut Flour Berry Muffins
Easy Low Carb Coconut Flour Berry Muffins are a deliciously healthy way to start the day without sugar, flour, or tons of carbs to keep you full and fueled!
My kids LOVE anything carb-loaded.
Doughnuts, cereal, waffles, pancakes, muffins – if it’s packed with sugar and carbs, they are craving it for breakfast – despite my efforts to try to fuel them up with protein and fiber so they can have long lasting energy at school without a carb crash.
It never, ever works – until I discovered these deliciously easy muffins!
These muffins are so simple, they are great to make ahead for the school week and serve each morning with some organic honey or fresh butter.
These coconut flour berry muffins are low carb and work with whole 30, paleo, keto, and other lower sugar diets with some small modifications!
Tips to Perfect Low Carb Muffins
Coconut flour can be grainy when old or not well incorporated – I like to add mine slowly as the rest of the ingredients mix in a stand mixer to help ensure an even, non-grainy texture.
These muffins are very close to being paleo diet acceptable as well as keto diet acceptable muffins – but you do need to watch the type of peanut or almond butter you use, and swap honey for erythritol to be sure you’re not adding too many sugars to your muffins.
I keep this as-is for my kids, but for my husband who has lost over 30 pounds on the keto diet, I’d make them keto diet approved coconut flour berry muffins by using 2 tbsp powdered erythritol to sweeten the muffins – with a tablespoon of water if needed to loosen the dough.
If you take these muffins out of your muffin tin right away (or when still very hot), they don’t hold up well. Let them set for 5-10 minutes before moving from the pan.
For This Recipe, You’ll Need:
