Ingredients & Tools Needed For Coconut Flour Cinnamon Muffins

The following is a list of materials and ingredients you will need to bake your cinnamon roll muffins:

• Eggs, at room temperature: They provide structure, moisture, and help the muffins rise. They're especially important in coconut flour recipes, which need more binding.
• Cream Cheese, at room temperature: Adds richness and a slight tang while helping to create a soft, creamy texture in the batter.
• Unsalted Butter, at room temperature: Gives the muffins flavor and moisture, and contributes to their tender crumb.
• Granulated Sugar Substitute: Used to sweeten the muffins and the cinnamon swirl without adding carbs.
• Coconut Flour: This gluten-free, low-carb flour is the main dry ingredient. It absorbs a lot of liquid, creating a dense yet fluffy muffin texture.
• Sour Cream: Adds extra moisture and richness, helping balance the density of coconut flour.
• Baking Powder: Provides lift and helps the muffins rise slightly during baking.
• Sea Salt: Enhances the flavors and balances the sweetness.
• Vanilla Extract: Brings warmth and depth to both the muffin batter and glaze.
• Ground Cinnamon: The key spice in the cinnamon swirl, delivering that classic cinnamon roll flavor.
• Confectioner's Sugar Substitute: Used in the glaze to create a smooth, sweet drizzle without sugar.
• Heavy Whipping Cream: Thins out the glaze while adding richness and creaminess.

Tools Needed

• Sifter
• Mixing bowl
• Electric stand mixer or hand mixer
• Cupcake liners
• Muffin or cupcake tin

How To Make Keto-Friendly Coconut Flour Cinnamon Roll Muffins

Start by allowing your eggs, cream cheese, and butter to come to room temperature. This ensures a smoother batter and better mixing.

Preheat your oven to 400°F and line two muffin pans with cupcake liners. In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the coconut flour, baking powder, and sea salt, then set the mixture aside.

In a large bowl, use a handheld or stand mixer to beat the room-temperature butter, cream cheese, granulated sugar substitute, and vanilla extract until the mixture is light and fluffy.

Add the eggs one at a time, beating after each addition and scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed to ensure everything is well incorporated.

With the mixer on a low setting, gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture. Continue to scrape the bowl occasionally to prevent dry pockets from forming.

Once the batter is mostly combined, switch to a spatula and gently fold in the sour cream. The final batter will be thick and fluffy, which is typical for coconut flour recipes.

In a small bowl, prepare the cinnamon swirl by combining ground cinnamon and a granulated sugar substitute. Fill each muffin liner halfway with batter, then sprinkle about ¼ teaspoon of the cinnamon mixture over each.

Add the remaining batter on top, filling each cup to the brim.

Place the muffin pans in the oven and bake at 400°F for 5 minutes. Then, without opening the oven door, reduce the temperature to 350°F and continue baking for an additional 10 to 15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

While the muffins bake, make the vanilla glaze by combining a confectioner's sugar substitute, vanilla extract, and heavy whipping cream in a small bowl.

Once the muffins are done, let them cool on a wire rack for at least 10 minutes before drizzling each one with the glaze. For an extra touch, sprinkle a bit more of the cinnamon mixture over the top.

Store any leftovers in the refrigerator for up to five days, or freeze them for up to three weeks for easy low-carb snacking later on.

Best Sugar-Substitutes

As far as which sugar substitute to use for these sugar-free cinnamon roll coconut flour muffins, I have a few recommendations.

Lakanto Monk Fruit Classic is their white granulated version, and it's my go-to option whenever a recipe calls for granulated white.

It's my favorite since the texture and flavor are what I have found to be the closest to real sugar.

The brand Swerve, which is an erythritol blend, also makes a great white granulated sugar substitute. It's a great option that's more accessible to many, as it can be found in most grocery stores now.

You could also use the stevia and erythritol-based brand Pyure if you prefer to use a granulated white stevia-based sweetener.

You'll have to use half the amount of Pyure since it's doubly sweet.

Lastly, if you can't easily find a more natural sugar substitute, you can also use Splenda with great success.

I know not everyone would agree with me here, and I respect this, but in my book, it's still better than regular sugar.

Plus, I find it doesn't have much of an aftertaste. It's also more economical, so there's that too.
