Ingredients

Muffin Batter:
-
2 TBSP (28g) butter, softened
-
2 oz (28g) cream cheese, softened
-
3/4 cup (144g) Krisda Monkfruit sweetener
-
4 large eggs
-
1 TBSP vanilla
-
1/2 cup full-fat sour cream
-
1 cup (113g) almond flour
-
1/2 cup (56g) coconut flour
-
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
-
1/4 tsp sea salt
-
-
Crumb Topping:
-
1/2 cup (56g) chopped pecans
-
1 cup (113g) almond flour
-
2 TBSP (14g) coconut flour
-
1/2 cup (96g) Swerve brown sugar sweetener
-
1/4 cup (62.5g) butter, softened
-
1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
Instructions
- Place the oven rack in the center of your oven and preheat to 350F. Line a large muffin pan with parchment paper liners (yes it's worth the extra expense - you won't lose any of your muffin stuck on the paper!) Set aside.
- Prepare your topping ingredients by mixing until crumbly and then set aside.
- In a medium-sized bowl, mix the almond and coconut flour, baking powder and salt. Mix well, breaking up any lumps. I find a whisk works well for this. If your coconut flour is lumpy, you may want to sift it. Set aside
- In a large bowl, beat the butter and cream cheese together until smooth. Add sour cream and vanilla, beating well.
- Add in eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- Add the dry ingredients into the wet, mixing thoroughly.
- Put a small spoonful of batter into each muffin liner - you will use about half of the batter. Top with 1 teaspoon of the topping. Divide the remaining batter between the 12 liners.
- Divide the remaining topping between the muffins.
- Bake for approximately 25 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. The crumb topping browns easily and you may want to cover with foil for the last 5 - 10 minutes if desired. The muffins in my photo were NOT covered.
- Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes and then remove to a wire rack to cool completely. Store in a container on the counter or in the fridge.
These low carb Coffee Cake Muffins are a tasty addition to your recipe box whether you’re low carb or keto! I love to eat them when they are still warm out of the oven with coffee or tea! If you aren’t a fan of nuts, you can omit them which will change the macros.
