Low-Carb Chocolate Zucchini Muffins
Yes, a muffin made of zucchini! I absolutely love this recipe. These muffins are extremely moist, delicious, and smooth. Plus, they are low-carb and completely sugar-free!
I have tried so many low-carb chocolate muffins, but they often turn out dry. This one, however, is a staple in my baking rotation. My family was astounded by how good these are, and best of all, they are quick and easy to make.
Yields: 12–15 muffins
Ingredients
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1/2 cup canola oil
- 2 cups sweetener (Erythritol)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 3/4 cups almond flour
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 2 cups shredded zucchini (peeled)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F.
- Mix the batter: Combine the eggs, buttermilk, canola oil, erythritol, vanilla, salt, almond flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and cinnamon in a large mixing bowl.
- Add the zucchini: Fold the peeled, shredded zucchini into the mixture. (Time-saving tip: If you don't have time to shred the zucchini, you can add chunky pieces to the batter and blend everything together using a blender!)
- Prepare the tins: Fill your muffin tins with the batter. If you are using a classic metal muffin tin, be sure to use paper liners. If you are using a silicone muffin pan, you can pour the batter directly in.
- Bake: Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until cooked through.
- Serve: Enjoy your muffins warm, topped with fresh fruit or a dollop of whipped cream!
