🧁 Ingredients

For the Cupcakes:

• 2 cups almond flour
• 1/4 cup coconut flour
• 1/2 cup erythritol (or preferred keto sweetener)
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 3 large eggs
• 1/3 cup unsalted butter (melted)
• 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
• 2 tbsp lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
• 1 tbsp lemon zest
• 1 tsp vanilla extract

For the Frosting:

• 4 oz cream cheese (softened)
• 2 tbsp butter (softened)
• 2 tbsp powdered erythritol
• 1 tbsp lemon juice
• 1 tsp lemon zest (optional for garnish)

🍋 Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Batter

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin pan with cupcake liners.
In a medium bowl, whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, and salt.

In another bowl, beat eggs, melted butter, sweetener, almond milk, lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla extract until smooth and well-combined.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until a thick, creamy batter forms.

Step 2: Bake the Cupcakes

Scoop the batter evenly into cupcake liners, filling each about 3/4 full.
Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Let the cupcakes cool completely before frosting.

Step 3: Make the Lemon Frosting

In a bowl, mix cream cheese and butter until smooth and creamy. Add powdered erythritol and lemon juice, and continue beating until fluffy.
Once the cupcakes are cool, frost them generously and top with a sprinkle of lemon zest for extra freshness.

💛 Pro Tips

✔ For extra lemon flavor, add a few drops of natural lemon extract to the batter.
✔ If you prefer dairy-free cupcakes, substitute the butter with coconut oil and use vegan cream cheese for frosting.
✔ Store cupcakes in the refrigerator for up to 5 days in an airtight container.
