The Best Keto Chocolate Muffins
These Keto Chocolate Muffins are a rich and decadent treat, but in bite-sized mini form. They are low carb, gluten free, and even dairy free. They are also really easy to mix up with ingredients you probably already have on hand.
When that dreadful sweet tooth hits, this might just be the low carb dessert recipe that saves you from diving head first into a pint of ice cream. BUT, if ice cream is your thing, I also have a low carb solution for that. Check out this Mason Jar Low Carb Chocolate Ice Cream
Recipe Tips
- I cooked these muffins in a silicone mini muffin pan. You can get one here. They pop right out and clean up is a cinch.
- Using powdered monkfruit instead of granular helps to take away any grittiness.
- If you are making 12 standard sized muffins, you may need to increase the cooking time up to 15 to 17 minutes.

Description
Moist, delicious, and perfectly chewy. These bite sized keto chocolate muffins are sure to curb that nagging sweet tooth.
Ingredients
- 1 cup natural creamy almond butter
- ⅔ cup powdered sweetener (I use this brand)
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons peanut butter powder (I use this brand)
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon melted salted butter, or coconut oil for dairy free
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1 ½ teaspoons pure vanilla extract (I use this brand)
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ cup sugar free chocolate chips (I use this brand)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Place a silicone mini muffin pan on top of a rimmed baking sheet.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond butter, monkfruit, cocoa powder, peanut butter powder, eggs, butter, water, vanilla extract, and baking soda. Using an elecrtric hand mixer, mix until all ingredients are well combined. It should be a fairly thick dough. Fold in the chocolate chips.

- Bake for 11 minutes. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and place on a cooling rack to allow the muffins to cool before eating.

Soooo good! I can hardly tell they're keto! I love chocolate, and these are the bomb!
Allison says
These were SO good! They don’t even taste like keto - the texture was like a bakery muffin. Definitely a repeat.
Shenique Hines says
Comes out perfect every time, thanks for sharing!
Shalandria says
Omg! These muffins were incredible and my boys love them too! Almost a month on keto and this recipe just made it whole lot better, Thanks
Staci says
I am amazed at how great these taste. I subbed natural peanut butter (crunchy) for the almond butter and cacao nibs for the sugar free chocolate chips and coconut oil for the butter. They turned out so well! I filled 24 mini muffin cavities completely full. They are nice and tall and fluffy. SO TASTY! They will be so yummy with some strawberries and whipped topping. This recipe is a keeper! I can't wait to try different ingredients besides the chocolate chips/cacao nibs.
Felicia says
Mmmm… look sooo good! I'm definitely going to try this soon!
Sierra Schwartz says
I used peanut butter too. I omitted the chocolate chips, increased the cocoa, cut down on the sweetened a bit- delicious, cake-like muffins!
Nini says
Can I substitute butter for almond butter
Courtney says
I can't even believe how delicious these are!! I made mine with peanut butter instead of almond butter, but everything else was the same, and they are SOOOO good- the texture, oh man, the texture is what hooks me. It's basically a brownie texture, so moist and chewy. My favorite keto dessert BY FAR. THANK YOU!!!!
Debbie D says
Thank you for letting us know you can swap out the almond butter for peanut butter. I don’t normally eat nut butters so I’m glad I can use the peanut butter I already have.
Keto Recipes says
I made this already, So quick you just mix it all and bake. I also put some colorful sprinkles to add colors and more tempting to taste. This is really delightfully yummy!
Paula says
I haven't made these yet.I was wondering if I could use cacao nibs instead of the dark chocolate chips?
