Ingredients
  

For the Red Velvet Cupcakes

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tray with cupcake liners.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour with coconut flour, cocoa powder, Erythritol, baking powder, baking soda, and sea salt. Whisk to combine.
  • In another bowl, combine the buttermilk with the melted butter and vanilla extract. Add the eggs and whisk well.
  • Combine the two mixtures and whisk to get a smooth batter. Gradually add the red food coloring until you reach the desired shade of red. It depends on the pigment, but in most cases, 1-2 teaspoons should be enough. The color will get darker in the oven.
  • Divide the mixture into the prepared muffin tray and bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes.
  • Make the buttercream frosting or cream cheese frosting while the cupcakes are baking.
  • Allow the cupcakes to cool to room temperature before frosting.
