The following is a list of ingredients you’ll need to make these almond flour churros. You can find the full printable recipe card at the bottom of the post.

• Almond flour, finely milled, or sunflower seed flour for a nut-free option.
• Granulated sugar substitute for the most sugar-like result.
• Vanilla extract
• Full-fat cream cheese, softened acts as a binding agent in place of the gluten found in wheat flour.
• Eggs, room temperature
• Butter, room temperature
• Ground cinnamon powder: I use Saigon for the quality
• Baking powder
• Sea salt

Tools Needed

To make these little keto churro minis, you’ll need, most importantly, a 24-cavity muffin pan.

I used a non-stick metal pan, but you can also choose to use a silicone 24-cavity muffin pan, in which case you should place a baking sheet underneath so that the minis do not overbake.

But don’t worry; if you don’t have a mini muffin pan, you can also bake these in a regular muffin tin. I’ve included the baking time for both below.

You’ll also need mixing bowls and an electric mixer (hand mixer or stand mixer).

I always like to use a Silicone spatula when using an electric mixer to scrape the sides of the bowl to ensure everything is being mixed well.

How To Make Keto Mini Churros

These low-carb churro bites are made so quickly and easily that you’ll be shocked! That’s what makes them a great keto dessert, in my book.

The churro dough was inspired by our very popular keto almond flour cream cheese pound cake recipe.

You could also use our recipe for keto coconut flour pound cake if you need a coconut flour option.

By now, you all must know how much this girl loves a simple recipe that is absolutely delicious! This recipe is no different.

This is a low carb dessert you’ll want to add to your keto meal planner because it’s one that will become one of your favorite recipes.

You’ll mix your wet and dry ingredients separately and then combine the two. Then it’s just a matter of baking them, dunking them in melted butter, and then rolling them in cinnamon “sugar.”

I used salted butter for the melted butter needed to roll the granulated sugar substitute. I feel the extra salt amplifies the churro taste, so there is that to keep in mind.

Store your leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator and allow them to come to room temperature.

For best flavor, I recommend having these the same day and serving them warm, but if you decide to freeze, I recommend leaving the cinnamon “sugar” topping and adding it after it comes to room temperature.

In my opinion, these gluten-free churros are perfectly served as is, but you can, of course, serve them with some sugar-free ice cream or some sugar-free chocolate syrup.

Sugar-Substitute Options

When it comes to choosing which sugar substitute to use for these sugar-free churros, I have some options for you.

You’ll get excellent results with any of the following sweeteners:

My two favorite granulated sugar substitutes for this recipe are Lakanto Monk Fruit and Swerve.

They both have a granulated version that works very well for the cinnamon sugar. It’s what gives these minis their churro feel and taste!

You could also use the stevia- and erythritol-based brand Pyure. But if using Pyure, you will want to use half the amount called for in this recipe since it’s a much sweeter option.

Join Our Jesus And Keto Movement 

Our family came to the keto diet looking at it from a Christian perspective. As believers, we live our entire lives supported by God’s grace.

So when the Holy Spirit led us to combine our Christian faith and the keto diet, we did so in hopes of finding lasting transformation.

To say we needed God’s intervention is to put it mildly. When we followed the Holy Spirit’s prompting, we got on the path to real transformation.

Knowing firsthand the benefits of this decision, we have created a closed Christian group using the keto diet to transform their lives.

I love how supportive and encouraging this group of believers is. It’s exciting to see how people are transforming their lives by combining this lifestyle with the Christian faith.

We invite you to join our Private Facebook Group and see if it’s not the key you have been missing.

Be sure to request our FREE Jesus and Keto E-Book (First 7 Days). We hope it blesses you.
