Description
Keto Baby Lemon ‘Impossible’ Pies are delightful mini bites that combine the zesty flavor of lemon with a rich chocolate undertone, perfect for a keto-friendly treat.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup granulated erythritol (or preferred keto sweetener)
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 3 large eggs
- 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
- Zest of 1 lemon
Instructions
- Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a mini muffin tin by greasing it or lining it with paper liners.
- In a large bowl, mix together the almond flour, cocoa powder, erythritol, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, eggs, almond milk, vanilla extract, lemon juice, and lemon zest until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
- Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined; be careful not to overmix.
- Spoon the batter into the mini muffin tin, filling each cup about three-quarters full.
- Place the tin in the oven and bake for 15 to 18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Once baked, let the bites cool in the tin for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- For an extra touch, you might add a tablespoon of unsweetened cocoa powder to enhance the chocolate flavor.
- Alternatively, swapping lemon juice for lime juice can give these bites a refreshing twist.
