Ingredients

  • 1 cup superfine blanched almond flour
  • 1/3 cup erythritol sweetener granular
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup pumpkin puree

CINNAMON SUGAR COATING

  • 2 tbsp erythritol sweetener granular
  • 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Line mini muffin pan with muffin liners.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together almond flour, erythritol, baking powder, cinnamon and nutmeg until evenly combined.
  • Add in eggs, vanilla, butter, pumpkin and whisk until a smooth batter forms.
  • Add about 1 tbsp batter to each muffin mold (or whatever amount is needed to make them about 2/3 full). Bake for about 13-15 minutes. A toothpick inserted should come out mostly clean and if you apply pressure to the surface of the muffins they should bounce back.
  • Let muffins cool in pan for a few minutes so they are not too hot to pick up. While waiting for them to cool, making your cinnamon sugar coating. In a small bowl, combine cinnamon sugar coating ingredients and whisk to evenly combine.
  • While muffins are still warm and the tops are still moist, dip tops in cinnamon sugar coating. If your muffin tops are dry and not moist you can brush them with a little water before coating them in cinnamon sugar. The cinnamon sugar coating will not stick unless the tops of the muffins are moist.

Notes

  • I recommend using mini muffin liners.* The muffins have a very delicate crumb, so they are very hard to remove if they are baked directly into the pan.
  • Mini muffin pans can vary in size which can affect your baking time. I used this mini muffin pan*
  • I used So Nourished Erythritol Sweetener Granular.*
