Ingredients
  

  • 3 large eggs (room temperature, about 70°F)
  • 1/2 cup sweetener
  • 1/2 cup almond milk (unsweetened original)
  • 1/3 cup + 1 tablespoon coconut oil (melted and cooled to room temperature)
  • 2.5 cups almond flour (super-fine)
  • 2.5 tsp baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup strawberries (hulled and diced into 1/2-inch pieces)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F and grease a 12-cup muffin pan with coconut oil or cooking spray. While the oven heats, hull and dice your strawberries into ½-inch pieces and set aside. I like to prep the strawberries first so they can release some of their juices, which adds moisture and flavor to the muffins.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the room-temperature eggs, sweetener, unsweetened almond milk, and melted coconut oil until the mixture is smooth and well combined. The room-temperature eggs are important because they incorporate air more effectively, creating a lighter, fluffier crumb in your finished muffins.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the super-fine almond flour, baking powder, and vanilla extract. Pour the wet ingredient mixture from Step 2 into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined—do not overmix, as this can lead to dense muffins. The batter should be slightly lumpy and thick.
  • Gently fold the diced strawberries from Step 1 into the batter using a rubber spatula, being careful not to crush them. Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full. I find that gently folding in the berries last prevents them from breaking apart and distributing color unevenly throughout the batter.
  • Bake in the preheated 350°F oven for 22-25 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs. The muffins should be golden brown on top. Allow them to cool in the muffin pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely for about 1 hour before serving. This cooling time allows the structure to set properly and makes them easier to handle.
