These soft, fluffy keto cinnamon muffins are a great way to start the morning. They're also the perfect grab-and-go breakfast that you can make ahead of time!
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (177 degrees C). Line a muffin pan with 10 or 12 silicone or parchment paper muffin liners.
Add the almond flour, monkfruit sweetener, baking powder, and salt to a mixing bowl. Mix to combine.
2 ½ cups almond flour, ½ cup monk fruit sweetener, 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder, ¼ teaspoon salt
In another large bowl, whisk together the melted butter, sour cream, almond milk, eggs, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
¼ cup butter, ¼ cup sour cream, ⅓ cup almond milk, 3 large eggs, ½ teaspoon vanilla extract, ½ teaspoon cinnamon, pinch of nutmeg
Fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredient mixture. Mix well, making sure there are no lumps.
Divide the batter evenly between the muffin cups and bake them for about 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
To make the cinnamon-sugar topping:
In a small bowl, combine ½ cup monkfruit sweetener and cinnamon.
2 tablespoons monk fruit sweetener, ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
In a separate small bowl, melt the butter.
¼ cup butter
Once the muffins are baked, let them cool. Then, remove the muffin liners, dip each muffin in the melted butter, and coat them in the cinnamon and sweetener mixture.
Store leftover muffins in an airtight container for up to 4 to 5 days.
Notes
Add a pinch of pumpkin spice or other flavoring to the batter before baking them. This will give them an extra pop of flavor.
You can add fruits to the batter before cooking. Chopped strawberries or blackberries will give the cinnamon muffins some extra flavor and texture.
Nuts can be added in as well. Chopped walnuts or pecans would taste amazing in these cinnamon muffins!
