Instructions
Cupcakes
- Preheat oven to 350°F and line a muffin tin with cupcake liners or grease with coconut oil spray. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, erythritol, baking powder, baking soda, and salt
- In a separate bowl, mix eggs, melted butter, stevia, and vanilla. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
- Divide the batter between the cupcake liners, filing them ¾ of the way full. Bake for 20-25 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the middle of a cupcake comes out clean.
- Allow to cool completely prior to frosting.
Frosting
- Add the butter to a large bowl and beat with a hand mixer until fluffy.
- Next, add cocoa powder, swerve and vanilla to the bowl. Beat until thoroughly mixed and smooth.
- If frosting is too thick, beat in milk alternative or cream, 1 tbsp at a time until frosting reaches desired consistency.
- Cupcakes are best stored in an air tight container in the fridge up to 10 days.
