  • 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.

  • 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.
