Ingredients
- 4 medium eggs
- 1 cup cocoa powder (key ingredient for the best taste and texture)
- 1 cup Swerve
- 6 tablespoons coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon sugar-free vanilla extract
- 1/8 teaspoon Himalayan salt
- 1/4 cup sugar-free chocolate chips
Did you know that not all cocoa powder, in the shops, is keto-friendly?
Some of it is with added sugar and other non-keto ingredients. I would highly suggest you check the labels when you are buying next. The one, I use, is this one:
Cacao Barry Cocoa Powder 100% Cocoa Extra Brute
I usually use this keto friendly chocolate chips when I make keto chocolate chip muffins.
Instructions
Let the gluten-free double chocolate muffins cool in the tin for about 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. This helps them set and makes them easier to handle.
Beat the Eggs:
Start by cracking the eggs into a large bowl.
Beat the eggs with a hand mixer or egg whisk until they are fluffy. This should take about 2-3 minutes. Using room temperature eggs can help them fluff up better.
Mix the Dry Ingredients:
In a separate bowl, combine the cocoa powder, Swerve (or your preferred sugar substitute), and Himalayan salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the beaten eggs, mixing continuously to avoid lumps. This ensures a smooth brownie batter.
Add the Wet Ingredients:
Melt the coconut oil in a small saucepan or microwave until fully liquid.
Pour the melted coconut oil (you can use melted butter too) and sugar-free vanilla extract into the egg mixture. Mix until everything is well combined. The coconut oil helps keep the muffins moist and adds healthy fats.
Prepare the Muffin Forms:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C).
Line a 12-cup muffin tin with muffin cups or use a baking tray if you prefer. Using parchment paper or silicone muffin liners can prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
Fill the Muffin Forms:
Pour the brownie batter evenly into the 12 muffin forms, filling each about 3/4 full. This allows room for the muffins to rise without overflowing.
Add the Chocolate Chips:
Sprinkle the sugar-free chocolate chips on top of each muffin. This adds a delicious chocolatey crunch to the top of the brownie muffins.
Bake:
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes.
Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center of a muffin. If it comes out clean, they are done. Be careful not to overbake, as this can make the muffins dry.
Cool and Serve:
Let the gluten-free double chocolate muffins cool in the tin for about 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. This helps them set and makes them easier to handle.
