Ingredients
  

  • 1½ cups almond flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup grated carrots
  • ⅓ cup erythritol or monk fruit sweetener
  • ¼ cup unsweetened almond milk
  • ¼ cup melted coconut oil or butter
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp nutmeg
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ¼ cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)
  • 2 tbsp unsweetened shredded coconut (optional)

Equipment

  • 1 Mixing bowls
  • 1 Whisk
  • 1 Grater
  • 1 Muffin pan
  • 1 Silicone or paper muffin liners
  • 1 Measuring cups and spoons
  • 1 Cooling rack

Method
 

  1. Preheat the Oven: Set up your muffin pan with silicone or paper liners and preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F).
  2. Mix the Wet Ingredients: Mix the eggs, sweetener, almond milk, melted coconut oil (or butter), and vanilla extract in a large bowl until smooth.
  3. Add the Dry Ingredients: Mix together almond flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt in a small bowl. Mix the dry ingredients through the wet ones and continue to stir until fully combined
  4. Fold in Carrots and Extras: Fold in the grated carrot, add the chopped nuts and shredded coconut (if using).
  5. Fill and Bake: Spoon batter into muffin cups until all the batter is used. Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until a toothpick placed in the center comes out clean.
  6. Cool and Serve: Set the muffins in the pan for 10 minutes to cool; then remove them from the pan, and cool on a wire rack. Enjoy them plain or topped with keto cream cheese frosting.

Notes

  • Drain and use a towel to pat dry grated carrots.
  • Mix this a little or else the muffins would become hard and undercooked.
  • Spray and Use Silicone Liners To Make Them Stick-Free
  • Or some cloves or ginger for a little more kick.
  • Refrigerate in an airtight container up to 5 days, or freeze for long term storage.
