Recipe Ingredients

These keto chocolate avocado muffins are made with simple ingredients you probably already have in your kitchen.

Low-Carb Flour

The recipe uses a combination of coconut flour and almond flour. Using both together is best as it makes the texture closer to muffins made with regular flour. Baked goods made with just almond meal or flour tend to be too dense and those with just coconut flour can turn out a bit spongey.

Cocoa Powder

To get a natural chocolate flavoring throughout the batter, cocoa powder is used. Just make sure you use one that's unsweetened.

Sweetener

A combination of sweeteners generally gives a better taste than using just one type. A blend of stevia and erythritol is used, but a low-carb sweetener like Swerve or Lakanto can be used instead. You'll need about 9 tablespoons of sugar substitute.

Dark Chocolate

The recipe calls for dark chocolate, but I used my homemade low carb chocolate recipe instead. Making your own keto chocolate using unsweetened baking chocolate is usually cheaper than buying commercially prepared sugar-free chocolates.

Although dark chocolate is low carb, even the high cocoa content chocolate still has some sugar in it. You could use a bar from Good ChocolateorLily’s dark chocolate bar. Both are low carb and sugar-free.

Avocado

The avocado makes these the best keto chocolate muffins ever! It gives them a creamy texture without any added sugar. You’ll need two medium-sized avocados to make these delicious low carb double chocolate muffins.

Eggs

There's a bit more eggs in these muffins than standard ones. But that's because coconut flour needs plenty of eggs. However, flax eggs could be used for two fo the eggs.

Milk or Cream

To keep the muffins moist, you'll want to add in some high fat keto-friendly milk. Full fat coconut milk, coconut cream, or heavy cream are best.

Baking Powder or Soda

The recipe uses a combination of baking soda and cream of tartar which is an alternative to baking powder. But you can use baking powder instead.

Recipe Quick Tips

• Although an electric mixer would probably work, a food processor is recommended to get the avocado nice and smooth. I also used the food processor to pulse in the dry ingredients.
• Add the chopped keto chocolate chips right into the food processor and stir it into the batter. There's no need for use a separate bowl.
• Use baking powder. Instead of the baking soda and cream of tartar, you can try using a tablespoon of baking powder instead.

Recipe Instructions

It's super easy to make these keto chocolate chip muffins . All you do is mix up the batter, divide into a prepared muffin tin, and then bake.

1. Prepare the batter

First, you'll need to remove the flesh from two ripe avocados then pulse in a food processor until smooth. Then stir together the dry powder ingredients and mix into the mashed avocado. The wet ingredients are added next and processed until the batter is smooth.

The last step is to stir in the sugar-free chocolate chips. I added the keto chocolate right into the food processor and stirred it into the batter.

Once the batter is prepared, it's divided between ten prepared muffin cups. You can either grease each mold well or use paper liners. Silicone muffin pans or liners work well too. Top each muffin batter with additional keto chocolate chips before baking.

2. Bake it!

The batter needs to bake until the tops are crisp and the muffins are set. It takes about 25 minutes for the low-carb muffins to be done. When done, you should see a nice rise if the cups were filled close to the top.

My Serving Suggestions

These tasty muffins can be enjoyed any time of day. They make a wonderful healthy breakfast or a sweet treat in the afternoon. You can also serve these keto chocolate muffins with chocolate chips for dessert.

If you eat them for breakfast, serve them with a high-protein recipe like keto egg bites. Or, have them with a chai masala spice tea for a satisfying afternoon snack. They also work well as a decadent treat after a keto pot roast dinner.
