1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a muffin tin with butter or non-stick spray, or line it with muffin liners.
2. Make the Muffin Batter:
In a medium bowl, combine the almond flour, erythritol, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Mix well to combine.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, almond milk, melted butter, vanilla extract, and apple cider vinegar.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. The batter will be thick but spreadable.
3. Bake the Muffins:
Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean. Let the muffins cool in the tin for about 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
4. Coat the Muffins:
While the muffins are cooling, prepare the cinnamon coating. In a small bowl, mix together the erythritol and cinnamon for the coating.
Once the muffins are cool enough to handle, dip each muffin into the melted butter, making sure to coat the tops completely.
Immediately roll the buttered muffins in the cinnamon-erythritol mixture until they are fully coated. Repeat for each muffin.
5. Serve:
Serve your Keto Cinnamon Donut Muffins warm, and enjoy!
Tips:
Texture: If you like a lighter muffin, you can add a tablespoon of unsweetened coconut flour to the batter to help absorb moisture and give a fluffier texture.
Make it a cake: If you prefer, you can make a keto cinnamon donut cake by doubling the batter and baking it in a round cake pan for about 25-30 minutes.
Flavor Variations: For extra flavor, you can add nutmeg or a little bit of vanilla extract into the batter for a more traditional donut flavor.
