Equipment

  • Mixing bowls
  • Electric hand mixer
  • Muffin tin

Ingredients

  • 1 ¼ cup almond flour
  • 1 cup blueberries
  • ¾ cup Swerve confectioners sugar
  • 2 Tablespoons coconut oil
  • 4 Tablespoons butter
  • 4 Tablespoons cream cheese
  • 4 eggs
  • 3 Tablespoons coconut flour
  • 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 lemon juice only
  • 1 Tablespoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ cup sour cream

For the Drizzle

  • 1 lemon juice and zest
  • 1 cup Swerve confectioners sugar

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F and prepare a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
  • In a microwave-safe bowl, combine butter, coconut oil, and cream cheese and melt in 30-second increments. It will look chunky at first, but will smooth out by using a hand mixer.
  • Add sour cream and confectioners sugar and beat for 1-2 minutes.
  • Add 4 eggs and beat for another minute.
  • Add vanilla extract and juice of one lemon.
  • Whisk together all dry ingredients in a separate bowl, then pour into bowl of batter, mixing as you pour.
  • Fold in blueberries, taking care not to crush them.
  • Scoop batter into your prepared muffin tin and bake for 20-30 minutes.
  • Keep an eye on the muffins and start checking them at 20 minutes. They're done when the tops of the muffins are golden brown, and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
  • Allow to cool completely before icing.

For the Lemon Glaze

  • Whisk together Swerve confectioners sugar and juice of 1 lemon. Add more "sugar" for a thicker glaze or more lemon juice for a thinner glaze.
  • Drizzle on top of muffins and enjoy! You can also top with lemon zest, if desired.
