These muffins are a great source of plant-based protein, healthy fats, and dietary fiber. Lupin flour is a great alternative to wheat flour as it’s low in carbs and high in protein, making it ideal for those following a keto or low-carb diet.
Tips:
- Make sure your eggs are at room temperature as this will help them to emulsify with the other ingredients more easily and create a more even texture.
- You can replace the erythritol sweetener with any other keto-friendly sweetener of your choice.
- If you don't have lupin flour, you can use almond flour or coconut flour instead, but you’ll need to adjust the amount as these flours absorb liquid differently than lupin flour.
Conclusion
There you have it, a delicious and nutritious keto chocolate muffin recipe that’s sure to satisfy your sweet cravings without compromising your health goals. With lupin flour, you can enjoy the baked goods you love without the guilt or the carbs. Give this recipe a try and let us know how it turns out!
