    Ingredients for Keto Chocolate Cupcakes

    For the Cupcakes

    • Almond flour
    • Coconut flour
    • Erythritol (powdered and liquid)
    • Coconut oil
    • Eggs
    • Strawberries
    • Baking powder
    • Baking soda

    How To Make Low Carb Chocolate Cupcakes

    • Prepare the oven. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (180 degrees Celsius) to get started. Grab a muffin tray, line it with cupcake liners, or grease it with butter.

    • Prepare the dry ingredients. In a large mixing bowl, add the almond flour, coconut flour, powdered Erythritol, baking powder, baking soda, and salt and mix them all.
    • Prepare the wet ingredients. Grab another mixing bowl to combine the wet ingredients. Add the eggs, coconut oil, liquid Erythritol, and vanilla extract and mix well until combined.

    • Prepare the batter. Now carefully combine the wet and dry mixtures very gently. Be careful not to overmix, and fold in the sliced strawberries once combined.

    • Bake the cupcakes. Pour the cupcake mixture into your lined muffin tray and bake in the oven for around 25 minutes until slightly golden.

    • Let the cupcakes cool. Remove the cupcakes from the oven and let them sit until they reach room temperature while you prepare the frosting.

    • Prepare the frosting. To make the chocolate frosting add the butter and cream cheese to a mixing bowl. Use an electric mixer to whisk until they reach a fluffy consistency.

    • Finish the frosting. Add the vanilla, Erythritol, and cacao powder and continue to mix until well incorporated.

    • Frost the cupcakes. Finally, once the cupcakes have cooled, generously frost them and optionally garnish them with sliced strawberries. Enjoy!

    Storage Instructions

    To store keto chocolate cupcakes, you can follow these steps:

    1. Allow the cupcakes to cool completely after baking.
    2. Place the cupcakes in an airtight container or sealable plastic bag.
    3. Remove as much air as possible from the container or bag.
    4. Place the container in the refrigerator.

    The cupcakes will last for several days in the refrigerator, but you may notice a change in texture and taste after a certain period. For the best quality, consume the cupcakes within 3 to 4 days. If you notice any signs of spoilage, such as mold, discoloration, or an off odor, it's best to discard them. You can also store them in the freezer for longer storage.
