Keto Apple Rhubarb Muffins
These delicious muffins use a careful amount of apple to keep them overall low carb, without compromising on beautiful flavour and a moist muffin. Best served straight out of the oven with butter!
Ingredients
- 1 small apple finely diced
- 1 cup rhubarb about 3 stalks, finely diced
- 3/4 cup almond flour
- 1/4 cup coconut flour
- 1/4 cup xylitol
- 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 50 grams butter melted and cooled
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
Crunchy Topping
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon xylitol
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180C / 356F and grease a 12 cup muffin pan, or use silicone liners (always the best for stopping sticking)
- Prepare the apple and rhubarb by finely dicing both.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine all dry ingredients for the muffin batter and whisk to break up any lumps.
- In a separate smaller bowl, whisk together the remaining wet ingredients (sour cream, melted butter, eggs and vanilla). Whisk until there are no lumps of sour cream.
- Combine the wet and dry mixtures. Fold through the apple and rhubarb and place the mixture in the muffin tin.
- If using, combine the crunchy topping ingredients and place a teaspoon on top of each muffin.
- Bake for 20 - 25 minutes until a skewer comes out clean.
