Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1/2 cup coconut flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup powdered erythritol
- 1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
Wet Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- 1/4 cup unsweetened coconut milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Fruit
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with cupcake liners to prepare for baking.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and powdered erythritol. Stir thoroughly to ensure even distribution of all dry components.
- Add Wet Ingredients: Add shredded coconut, eggs, unsweetened coconut milk, and vanilla extract to the dry mixture. Mix well until a uniform batter is formed without lumps.
- Fold in Raspberries: Gently fold in the fresh raspberries to avoid breaking them up, distributing them evenly through the batter.
- Fill Cupcake Liners: Divide the batter evenly among the prepared cupcake liners in the muffin tin, filling each about two-thirds full to allow room for rising.
- Bake the Cupcakes: Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes. Use a toothpick inserted in the center to check doneness; it should come out clean when the cupcakes are fully baked.
- Cool Before Serving: Remove the cupcakes from the oven and allow them to cool completely on a wire rack before serving to enhance texture and flavor.
Notes
- Ensure not to overmix the batter once the raspberries are added to keep them intact and prevent color bleeding.
- Almond flour and coconut flour absorb moisture differently; you can adjust coconut milk slightly if batter seems too thick or too thin.
- Store cupcakes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days to maintain freshness.
- Raspberries can be substituted with other keto-friendly berries like blueberries or blackberries for variety.
