Tara says
Can I use sugar free chocolate chips?
Kasey says
Feel free to use whatever chocolate chips you prefer. The Lily’s that I use are sugar free.
Peter says
I don’t have the monkfruit classic on hand, but I do have erythritol. Will that give it a different taste? or do I need to change the amount needed to make the muffins?
Kasey says
I would think it would be fine but I’ve only tested the recipe as is.
Louise says
Is it 7g carb PER MUFFIN??
Kasey says
Don’t forget to subtract the fiber that is also listed in the nutritional info to get net carbs.
Teresa says
So how much almond flour do I use, I’m allergic to coconut, any type,
Kasey says
4x as much
Lisa Anderson says
What else can I use. I do not like erythrotol in anything. It gives me a stomach ache
Kasey says
I would use whatever sweetener you prefer.
Sharon Jones says
New to keto and will try your recipes.
Kasey says
Awesome!
Sandra says
For the cocoa, do you use unweetened?
Kasey says
Yes.
Kim says
Making these today – they look amazing!! Do you have a preferred brand of cocoa? Thanks
Jessica says
Hi, with the amount of eggs in the recipe,do the muffins have an eggy texture?
Kasey says
Hey Jessica, I think the opinion on the texture differs depending on your preferences. My family really likes these and doesn’t think they are eggy.
Georgia Johnson says
I made these today with a mixture of 1/4 cup coconut flour and 1 1/2 cups almond flour and they were very good. I whipped up some heavy cream, Lakanto Monkfruit confectioners, and vanilla and topped them off. The muffins were cooked in 17 min. I may check at 16 next time. Thank you for your recipe.
Kasey says
Glad you enjoyed!
Jenn says
All I had was dark chocolate cocoa I hope that doesn’t make them bitter :/
