Ingredients
For this awesome recipe you will need:
DRY INGREDIENTS
- 1/2 Cup Coconut Flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
- 1/2 Cup Low-Carb Granulated Sweetener (I use Swerve or Monkfruit)
- 1.5 Tablespoons Pumpkin Spice
- 1 teaspoon Apple Pie Spice
- 1 teaspoon Nutmeg
- Couple Shakes of Cinnamon
- Couple Shakes of Cloves
WET INGREDIENTS
- 4 Eggs (Beaten)
- 1.5 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 1 Tablespoon Sweetener
- 1/4 Cup Lily’s Baking Chips (Butterscotch)
FILLING INGREDIENTS
- 4 oz. Cream Cheese
- 1.5 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 1 Tablespoon Low-Carb Sweetener
- 1/4 Cup Lily’s Baking Chips (Butterscotch)
Recipe Directions
FIRST, preheat oven to 350 degrees. Then, in a large bowl, mix all of the dry ingredients together.
NEXT, add all of the wet ingredients to the bowl, and mix all ingredients together well. Add batter to a lightly oiled muffin pan.
THEN, mix filling ingredients. Microwave for several seconds to soften and mix together some more. Add about 1 teaspoon soupy filling to each muffin. Swirl with a toothpick to make a fun and fancy design on top of muffins.
FINALLY, bake muffins for 25 minutes at 350 degrees. Cool for 5 minutes and then ENJOY!
Feel free to substitute coconut flour for the almond flour in this recipe if you wish. Additionally, you can use an alternative low-carb sweetener of your choice. Just be sure to choose one that won’t spike your blood sugar levels. Or simply leave the sweetener out, since the pumpkin itself does a pretty good job of flavoring these muffins with just the right amount of sweetness. Enjoy!
