Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup Butter softened
  • 1 cup Swerve or sugar substitute
  • 8 oz. Cream Cheese softened
  • 4 Eggs
  • 1 tsp. Vanilla
  • 2 1/2 cups Almond Flour
  • 1 Tbsp. Baking Powder
  • 1 tsp. Salt
  • 1 tsp. Xanthan Gum or Arrowroot Powder for coating the blueberries
  • 1 cup Blueberries fresh or frozen
  • Topping optional-
  • 1/4 cup Almond Flour
  • 1 tsp Baking Powder
  • 2 Tbsp. Butter
  • 1/2 tsp Cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup Blueberries

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Place muffin liners into a muffin tin. This makes roughly 10-12 large muffins or 20-24 regular muffins.
  • In a mixing bowl, add the softened butter and low carb sweetener together until smooth.
  • Next, add the softened cream cheese and allow it to incorporate into the butter mixture so there are no chunks of cream cheese present.
  • Add the eggs, one at a time and allow them to be mixed in thoroughly before adding another. Then mix in the vanilla.
  • Finally, add the baking powder, salt, and almond flour to the mixer and beat until it is all combined.
  • Toss the blueberries with the xanthan gum or arrowroot powder (you could also use cornstarch if not gluten free) to coat the blueberries so they don't sink in the batter.
  • Fold in the 1 cup of blueberries by hand until it is evenly mixed into the batter.
  • Use a measuring cup to scoop batter into each muffin liner. About 1/2 cup or so batter in a large muffin liner and around 1/3 cup in a regular liner. I fill the muffins 3/4th of the way to the top.
  • If adding the optional topping: In a mixing bowl, cut in or combine all the topping ingredients into a bowl (except the extra 1/4 cup of blueberries).
  • Add the crumble mixture to the top of each muffin. Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup of blueberries on top as well to add a pop of color.
  • Baking time: Bake the large muffins for about 30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean, regular muffins will take around 18-22 minutes. Do not over bake or over brown or they can get dry!

Notes

Sub your blueberries for your favorite berry instead! Freeze them for up to 3 months and defrost the night before or warm in the microwave and enjoy! Large muffins are 6 net carbs and regular muffins are 4 net carbs.
