Ingredients
  

  • Almond flour – 2 cups (fine blanched works best)
  • Unsweetened cocoa powder – 1/3 cup (Dutch-process or natural)
  • Granulated erythritol or allulose – 1/2 cup (adjust to taste)
  • Baking powder – 1 1/2 teaspoons
  • Salt – 1/4 teaspoon
  • Eggs – 3 large, room temperature
  • Unsweetened almond milk – 1/2 cup (or another low-carb milk)
  • Melted butter or coconut oil – 1/3 cup
  • Vanilla extract – 1 1/2 teaspoons
  • Apple cider vinegar – 1 teaspoon (helps lift the batter)
  • Fresh raspberries – 1 cup (halved if large)
  • Sugar-free dark chocolate chips – 1/2 cup (optional but recommended)

Method
 

  1. Prep your pan and oven: Heat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners or grease well.
  2. Mix dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk almond flour, cocoa powder, sweetener, baking powder, and salt until no clumps remain.
  3. Combine wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk eggs, almond milk, melted butter (slightly cooled), vanilla, and apple cider vinegar until smooth.
  4. Make the batter: Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and fold gently until just combined. The batter will be thick but scoopable.
  5. Add mix-ins: Fold in chocolate chips and about two-thirds of the raspberries. Reserve the rest for topping.
  6. Portion the batter: Divide evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full. Press the remaining raspberries gently on top.
  7. Bake: Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until the tops spring back lightly and a toothpick comes out with just a few moist crumbs.
  8. Cool: Let muffins cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a rack to cool completely. They firm up as they cool.
  9. Serve: Enjoy warm as-is, or with a smear of butter or a dollop of keto whipped cream.
