Ingredients

• 100 g Blanched almond flour
• 240 ml Unsweetened almond milk
• 120 g Cream cheese
• 100 g Granulated erythritol (or preferred keto sweetener)
• 3 large Eggs
• 1 pinch Salt
• 1 tsp Ground cinnamon
• 1 tsp Vanilla extract
• 1 tbsp Melted unsalted butter (for greasing)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F).

Step 2

Lightly grease a standard muffin tin or silicone molds with melted unsalted butter to prevent sticking.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, cream cheese, and granulated erythritol. Mix thoroughly until the texture is smooth and free of lumps.

Step 4

Whisk in the eggs, one at a time, ensuring each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next.

Step 5

Add the almond milk, vanilla extract, salt, and cinnamon. Mix until you achieve a smooth, pourable batter.

Step 6

Evenly pour or ladle the batter into the prepared molds, filling each about 3/4 full to allow for slight rising.

Step 7

Place the muffin tin or molds in the preheated oven and bake for 35–40 minutes, or until the queijadas are golden brown on the edges and set in the center.

Step 8

Remove from the oven and allow the queijadas to cool in the mold for about 10 minutes before carefully transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Once cooled, dust with a hint of additional erythritol or cinnamon if desired (optional). Serve and enjoy!
