Keto Cornbread Muffins
These Keto cornbread muffins are so simple to make and are prepared with Keto pantry essential ingredients that are easy to source. They make the perfect alternative to traditional cornbread muffins. They are gluten-free, grain-free, and perfect for a low-carb diet.
How do you store these Keto muffins?
These Keto cornbread muffins are so good we doubt you will have any leftovers to store. If you have any leftovers to store, let the muffins cool down entirely once baked. Place the cooled muffins in an airtight container for up to 5 days in the fridge. To freeze, wrap the muffins individually in plastic wrap. Then, transfer the muffins to a zip-lock bag and store them in the freezer for up to 3 weeks. Allow the muffins to thaw at room temperature before eating. Reheat the muffins for about 20 seconds in the microwave to enjoy warm.
Can you have cornbread muffins on Keto?
Traditional cornbread muffins are loaded with carbs and processed sugar; therefore, they are not suitable to have on a Keto diet. However, making Keto muffins by swapping out the cornmeal with almond flour or almond meal can deliver similar results in terms of texture and flavor. Luckily, these muffins are safe to enjoy without exceeding your daily net carbs.
Do you need to use cornbread extract in these Keto cornbread muffins?
No, you can make these Keto cornbread muffins without using cornmeal extract. With the naturally grainy texture from the almond flour, these Keto muffins look like traditional cornbread muffins and taste just like them too! However, adding a Keto-friendly cornbread extract might just be the secret to elevating the flavor of these low-carb muffins. When using a Keto-friendly cornbread extract, use only about 3-4 drops since it is highly concentrated.

Ingredients
Raw egg
2 medium
Heavy cream
2 tbsp
Sour cream
0.5 cup
Almond flour
1 cup
Baking powder
1 tsp
Melted Butter
4 tbsp
Erythritol Granulated
1.5 tbsp
Salt

Recipe Steps
steps 4
30 min
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 180C (350F) and line a 6-hole muffin tray with paper liners. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, and sour cream until thoroughly combined. In a separate bowl, combine the almond flour, baking powder, granulated erythritol, and sea salt.Step 2
Add the eggs and cream mixture to the dry ingredients. Gently stir with a spatula to combine until fully incorporated. Ensure not to overmix the batter; when the dry ingredients are absorbed into the liquid mixture, stop mixing.Step 3
Add the melted butter to the batter and gently mix. Scoop out the batter equally among the muffin holes using an ice cream scoop. This will ensure the muffins bake evenly and have equal carbs per serving.Step 4
Transfer the muffin tray to the oven. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until golden brown on the top or when a toothpick inserted in the middle of the muffins comes out clean. Transfer to a cooling rack to cool for about 10 minutes. Serve warm!

1/4 tsp of turmeric adds a touch of flavor and helps with the color.

The recipe servings at the start of the recipe says it makes 8 muffins. In the recipe instructions you instruct us to use 6 hole muffin tray. Which number is correct? The carb value will change.
