Ingredients in Keto Cheese Muffins

blanched almond flour
oat fiber — This low carb ingredient is pure insoluble fiber and made from grinding the outer husks of oats. Because it doesn’t dissolve in water and isn’t broken down in the digestive tract, it has zero net carbs and is a great Keto baking ingredient. I use it in this recipe because it helps to give these muffins the perfect texture. This is a great pantry staple to keep on hand. (Find it here.)
grated cheese — Mozzarella or cheddar, or feel free to use something special like Gruyère, too. (Keto cheeses here.) Buy already grated cheese if you want this recipe to be extra fast to make.
eggs
sour cream — If you buy an 8 ounce container of sour cream, this recipe is extra fast to make, because you don’t need to measure it; you just add the whole thing, which is what I do, and I seriously can’t believe how fast this recipe is to make.
avocado oil, or olive oil
onion powder
baking powder
baking soda
sea salt

How to make Keto Cheese Muffins

This is one of the fastest recipes to make on my blog: It’s SO fast, easy and fun, because the batter comes together so quickly, then bake, and!, you end up with lovely Cheese Muffins.

I love to throw these together on a cold day to liven up the kitchen and meals. They’re so quick that it’s no stress to me to throw them together, and then everyone feels the blessing of that special kind — that only comes from making homemade baked goods!

And, the fact that Keto Cheese Muffins are a savory treat is ironically extra sweet: We don’t always need sweets to have a treat. In fact, Cheese Muffins really satisfy, which is why people so often enjoy cheese for dessert. 🙂

Keto Cheese Muffins are a one-bowl recipe!:

Stir dry ingredients together in a large mixing bowl.
Add all wet ingredients, and mix to combine.
Scoop batter into lined muffin pan.
Bake, cool and serve!
