    How To Make Low Carb Chocolate Cupcakes

    To get started, preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grab a muffin tray and line with cupcake liners or grease with butter.

    Next in a mixing bowl, we'll combine the dry ingredients. Add the almond flour, coconut flour, powdered Erythritol, baking powder, baking soda and salt and mix them all together.

    Now carefully combine the wet and dry mixtures together very gently. Be careful not to overmix and fold in the slice strawberries once they're combined.

    We're almost ready to bake! Pour the cupcake mixture into your lined muffin tray and bake in the oven for around 25 minutes until slightly golden.

    Once they're ready, remove them from the oven and let them sit until they reach room temperature while you prepare the frosting.
