Ingredients
- 5 large eggs room temperature
- 1 cup almond flour super fine, blanched
- ½ cup golden flaxseed meal
- ⅔ -1 cup powdered sweetener I used an Erythritol and Monk Fruit Sweetener
- ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- ½ cup heavy cream
- ⅔ cup unsalted butter softened
- ⅓ cup sugar-free chocolate chips
- 1 tsp espresso powder or instant coffee
- 2 tsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp salt
- ½ cup warm water
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners or grease lightly with butter.
- In a large bowl, crack the eggs and add salt. Using an electric mixer, beat for about 30 seconds until light and frothy.
- Add your powdered sweetener and beat again until fully dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
- Mix in the almond flour, flaxseed meal, baking powder, espresso powder, and cocoa powder. Blend until a thick batter begins to form.
- Pour in the heavy cream and warm water. Continue mixing until fully combined.
- Switch to a spatula and stir in the softened butter. Then gently fold in the chocolate chips.
- Divide the thick batter evenly into the muffin liners (about ¼ cup each). Smooth the tops and sprinkle extra chocolate chips if desired.
- Place in the oven and bake for 18–20 minutes, or until the muffins are firm and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Let them cool in the tin for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.
