Ingredients

Keto Coffee Cake Batter

  • 1 cup blanched almond flour
  • 1/4 cup coconut flour
  • 1/3 cup granulated Lakanto Classic or other sweetener
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 4 large eggs room temperature
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk or other nut milk, room temp
  • 2 tbsp sour cream
  • 4 tbsp butter melted
  • 1.5 tsp vanilla extract

Keto Cinnamon Streusel

  • 3/4 cup almond flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated Lakanto Classic or other sweetener
  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg optional
  • 1.5 ounces chopped walnuts or pecans
  • 4 tbsp butter melted

Keto Vanilla Glaze

  • 1/2 cup powdered Lakanto or other powdered sweetener
  • 2 tbsp unsweetened almond milk or other nut milk
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 dash cinnamon

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350F. Prepare a 12-cup muffin pan with liners and/or coconut oil spray.

Prep the Streusel

  • Combine almond flour, sweetener, cinnamon, nutmeg, and nuts. Stir in melted butter until just combined, and set aside.

Prep the Coffee Cake Batter

  • In a mixing bowl, combine dry coffee cake ingredients (almond flour, coconut flour, sweetener, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt.
  • Separately, whisk together wet ingredients (melted butter, eggs, almond milk, sour cream, and vanilla).
  • Add wet ingredients to dry and stir to combine.

Layer and Bake

  • Divide half of the batter between prepared muffin cups, about one rounded tablespoon each. Top with half of the struesel mixture. Repeat the layers, topping with the remaining batter and then crumbling the rest of the streusel on top.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 22-25 minutes, or until golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool in pan for about 5 minutes before removing.

Prep the Glaze

  • While the muffins bake/cool: Add powdered sweetener, cinnamon, and vanilla to a small bowl. Slowly stir in 1-2 tablespoons of almond milk, until glaze is thin enough to drizzle.

Serve and Enjoy!

  • Drizzle keto coffee cake muffins with glaze before serving. Best served warm or room temperature.

Notes

  • To store: Allow keto coffee cake muffins to cool completely, then transfer to a storage bag or sealed container. Store at room temperature for up to two days, or refrigerated for 5-7 days.
  • I used salted butter in this recipe. If using unsalted, add an additional pinch of salt to both the batter and streusel.
  • Pumpkin spice works well in this recipe as an addition or replacement for some of the cinnamon.
