A delicious treat and so easy to make! At any time of the day or in any season, a chocolate muffin is a welcome snack.

Getting started
2

Crack the eggs into a bowl and beat using a hand whisk.

3

Add melted coconut oil (or butter), Erythritol, stevia, cacao powder, coconut flour and almond flour, cinnamon, cream of tartar and baking soda.

Note: You can use both coconut and almond flour or even just one of them. When substituting coconut flour for almond flour, use just a third of it.

4

Mix well and spoon the mixture into small ramekins.

5

(optional)
Top with dark chocolate chopped into small pieces. The smaller the better, as large pieces will drop to the bottom.

6

Microwave for 60-90 seconds. Using a spatula, loosen the muffin from the edges and place on a serving plate.

If you don't have a microwave oven, place in a regular oven preheated to 360℉ / 180℃ for about 15 minutes.
