Are these cupcakes moist?
We know what you’re thinking; there is nothing worse than biting into a dry and crumbly cake. Don’t worry because these Keto cupcakes are mouthwatering. The secret to their pillowy texture is the sour cream in the batter. You can substitute the sour cream with Greek yogurt, but make sure not to skip it. An essential factor in this recipe is to use sour cream at room temperature. Otherwise, you’ll end up with a lumpy batter.

The best part about these Mother’s Day cupcakes is their sweet and fluffy frosting. You can use this frosting in many Keto tea party recipes you prefer or as a delicious fat bomb.

Beat the butter, powdered erythritol, and lemon extract in a stand mixer or using a hand mixer until smooth and fluffy.
Are these Keto cupcakes gluten-free?
Yes, they are! This low-carb recipe uses almond flour and coconut flour as a base, which are naturally gluten-free. Also, none of the other ingredients contain gluten. We guarantee you that these Keto tea party cupcakes will become your favorite whether you are gluten-free or not.

Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350F/180 C. Line a muffin pan with paper cups. In a large bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, and salt.Step 2
To another bowl, add the sour cream, granulated erythritol, lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Whisk well. Add the eggs and almond milk, and whisk again until you have a homogeneous mixture.Step 3
Add the dry ingredients to the wet and fold. The batter should be thick and fluffy. Finely chop the strawberries and stir them into the batter.Step 4
Using a cookie scoop, divide the batter into the muffin tin holes. We used two 6-hole pans, but feel free to use one 12-hole pan. Fill the holes with batter ¾ of the way.Step 5
Bake for 25-30 minutes until an inserted toothpick comes out clean. Remove the cupcakes from the pan and let them cool on a rack for 2-3 hours. Meanwhile, start preparing the lemon buttercream frosting.Step 6
To a bowl, add the room temperature butter, powdered erythritol, and lemon extract. Beat using a hand mixer and light and fluffy. Transfer the frosting to a piping bag with the star attachment.Step 7
Pipe the frosting on top of the cupcakes. Garnish with half a strawberry and a lemon wedge. Serve immediately, or store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.

The cupcake recipe instructions are wrong, when you should add the almond milk it says to add almond flour so I added the almond flour and was in such a big hurry I didn't notice the extra ingredient. I now have 24 bricks and a terrible keto buttercream frosting. This is the first carb manager recipe I have made hopefully most are better.
