Coconut Blueberry Muffins

Nancy542 · 11-19-2007, 03:49 PM

These muffins are made with coconut flour, which has a fairly mild coconut taste. They can be made with either blueberries or rasberries.

INGREDIENTS
3 eggs at room temperature
1/3 cup coconut flour
1/4 cup melted butter
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 cup sugar substitute equivalent
1/2 tsp. baking powder
2-5 tablespoons cream or water (I used 4 T of cream & it worked out great)
1/2 cup raspberries or blueberries

PREPARATION
Heat oven to 375 - prepare muffin pan with a generous amount of butter
Makes 6 regular sized muffins

Whisk or beat eggs until well mixed. Stream in the butter while continuing to whisk
Add salt and vanilla and mix well
Mix the remianing dry ingredients - coconut flour, bak. soda and sweetener if using powder
Mix the dry and wet ingredients together. Now whisk in 1 tablespoon at a time of water or cream. The coconut flour will absorb the liquid like crazy. You want to get it to a consistency that will hold up the berries, but not too thick. 4 tablespoons of cream worked great for me
Gently mix in the berries and divide among 6 muffin cups
Bake 15-18 minutes or until just turning golden on the top

Nutritional Information: 2 grams net carbs each muffin

These are delicious!!!! Enjoy!

Wow these do sound wonderful and I love that it makes just 6. Gives me a reason to add coconut flour to my Netrition list.

YUMMO - very very good...

I used a few raspberries and a bit of orange cream lorann oil and baked them in a muffin top pan.
