Calories: 197kcal
Ingredients
- 1.5 cup almond flour 150g, or ground almonds
- 2 tablespoon coconut flour
- 3 eggs large, or 4 medium eggs
- ½ cup cream cheese 120g
- ⅓ cup granulated sweetener 60g, or more, to taste
- 1 ½ teaspoon baking powder
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- lemon zest grated from 1 lemon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup blackberries 140g
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180 Celsius / 350 Fahrenheit
- Blend the eggs for a few minutes until they are frothy and have increased in volume.
- Add the wet ingredients - cream cheese, lemon juice, zest and vanilla extract - and blend.
- Then add the dry ingredients - almond flour, baking powder, erythritol or your low carb sweetener of choice - and blend until combined. Let the batter sit for a few minutes so the coconut flour can expand.
- Fill the batter into 8 paper muffin cups (or use a silicone muffin tray) and add the blackberries. Push some inside the batter and leave some on top. Optional: sprinkle the tops with low carb sweetener.
- Bake for 25 minutes or until lightly browned and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

Notes
Makes 8 muffins. Net carbs per muffin: 3.2g.
Weight: about 80g each.
This recipe is designed for ground almonds or regular / coarser almond flour. If you want to use super-fine almond flour, you may want to reduce the amount by 1-2 tablespoon as it absorbs more liquid.
Don't leave out the lemon zest or lemon juice - it really takes the recipe to the next level.
Optional: add a pinch of salt for extra flavor.
Let cool fully before removing the paper cases.
