Description

These low-carb strawberry almond muffins are a delightful treat, combining the nutty flavor of almond flour with the sweetness of fresh strawberries.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups almond flour
  • 1/2 cup protein powder
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries (diced)
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine almond flour and protein powder. Mix until well incorporated.
  3. Toss in diced fresh strawberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dry mixture.
  4. In another bowl, blend eggs, Greek yogurt, honey, and vanilla extract. Beat until smooth.
  5. Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry mix until just combined.
  6. Use a muffin scoop to portion the batter into a greased muffin tin, filling each cup three-quarters full.
  7. Place in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  8. Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For extra sweetness, feel free to substitute maple syrup for honey.
  • Frozen strawberries can be used if fresh aren’t available; just ensure they are well-drained before adding them to the batter.
