Ingredients

• 2 cups Almond flour
• 0.5 cup Granulated erythritol sweetener
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 3 tablespoons Poppy seeds
• 3 whole Large eggs
• 2 tablespoons Lemon zest
• 0.25 cup Lemon juice
• 0.25 cup Unsweetened almond milk
• 0.25 cup Butter, melted
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease with non-stick spray.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, granulated erythritol, baking powder, poppy seeds, and salt. Stir well to ensure an even distribution of ingredients.

Step 3

In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, lemon zest, lemon juice, almond milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir using a spatula until just combined. Be cautious not to overmix the batter.

Step 5

Evenly divide the batter among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.

Step 6

Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the tops are lightly golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 7

Once baked, remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 8

Enjoy the muffins as a delicious low-carb treat with your morning coffee or as an afternoon snack.
