The kcal, protein, fat and carbs that you write are for portion or for the recepì?
Hi, Angelo74. The amounts are per serving.
I used 1 cup almond and 3/4 cup coconut flour. It was thick. I hope they turn out.
Hi. I am making these muffins for the first time tomorrow morning. Can we add butter on it? I like to eat my muffins warm with lots of melted butter in the middle. Yummm… Please let me know.
Thank you so much,
Renee
Hi, Renee. You can have up to one teaspoon of butter added to this meal. Beyond that, the calories start to go too far beyond the allottment.
Can I use almond milk instead of coconut?
Hi, Kitti444. That is fine keto-wise, but I don’t know what effect it will have on the physical attributes of the recipe.
Oh, I forgot to add that I cooked these in a regular size muffin pan because I don’t have a jumbo muffin pan, and I still had to add 10 minutes to the baking time, totaling 30 minutes in all.
I, too, just tried this recipe, and when I followed the instructions, my batter came out completely liquid, so I just added another cup of almond flour, making it 2 cups in total, and they came out okay although they look nothing like the picture on this recipe. I also coated the blueberries with almond flour but they still sank to the bottom. The people who write these recipes really should test them first before publishing them on the website.
Tried the recipe tonight and very disappointed. Blueberries all sank and the muffins just fell apart!
Hi, NikiC. If you dust the blueberries in a little almond flour before adding they may not sink to the bottom. When you write “falling apart,” do you mean oozing or crumbling?
Can i melt the butter first to make it easier to mix it into the coconut milk?
Hi, SunshineTX. Of course.
I am allergic to nuts ex. Almonds, walnuts, pecans, cashews etc. how can I substitute these ingredients in a lot of dishes? Ex. Blueberry muffin uses almond flour or soufflé also uses almond milk and flour
Hi, Debbier47. If you can use coconut flour, that is the most common substitute. For that, use 1/4 cup plus an extra egg for every 1 cup of another flour.
so good I just used swerve instead of stevia b.c i hate the taste of it. I put more almond flour in it. i didnt have jumbo size muffin tin just regular so I have a lot of batter to use.
Do you brave to use blueberries? Is there another option?
Hi, NIKKYD. No, you can use any other berry.
trying for first time. this is the third day for me
I am allergic to coconut, is there a good substitute. Or can I use whole milk
Hi, rochelleraper. You can use light cream in this recipe.
I love blueberries but I’m not a baker and I really don’t have time to make it can I substituted for any other breakfast
Hi, Kimble. Sure – just be sure to right size the portion so that you get the same (or a similar) number of calories.
wut about a bacon and eggs breakfast
Hi, Dazzle2020. That’s fine.
What kind of egg? How many? Fried bacon? How many pieces?
Hi, Himmy. Up to 3 eggs (preferably omega-3 or “pastured”) cooked in up to a tablespoon of olive oil, and up to two slices of regular-thickness bacon (preferably uncured), along with a medium-sized tomato.
Can you use brown sugar instead of stevia n if so how much
Hi, Donella13. Brown sugar will make this recipe not keto. Note that Truvia does have a brown sugar-like product that is sugar-free. If it’s OK with you that this recipe not be keto-supportive, then you can use 1/2 cup of brown sugar here.
I used Swerve brown sugar.
Hi, MrsBee. Excellent!!!
If you dust the blueberries in a little almond flour before adding they dont sink to the bottom I have found
Made this morning. Definitely a different texture. Very rich, and felt like I was eating a blueberry quiche. If I make this again will definitely try a bit more flour. Has potential, flavor was decent but “muffin” needs some work.
I have truvia, which is spoonable, how many?
Hi, 5509Bay. About 1/3 cup (80 ml) should do the trick.
I think the muffin recipe was very good when adjusting almond flour to 2 1/2 cups from 1 cup. But they are a bit dry and crumbly, maybe I need to adjust something else? Also, I have a question about the quantity as well. Using 2 1/2 cups of almond flour I was actually able to fill 12 of my medium sized muffin pans. Does that mean the quantity per serving should change or is one serving now 3 muffins? I have to say I was very full and satisfied after 2. Thanks!
Hi, Jody. Thanks so much for that feedback. Hopefully improvement can be attained by reducing the almond flour to 2 cups? That way will make it more affordable, too, as almonds are expensive.
To answer your serving question, no it would mean that the recipe now makes 6 servings (5 if you use only 2 cups of almond flour)
There is something wrong with this recipe. If you make it exactly how it reads it turns out very liquid and blueberries fall to the bottom. Its a very expensive recipe to end up being a flop. Please recheck and maybe bake it yourself to see what the problem might be. I have had success with the other recipes I have tried on this site so I feel like some measurement may be off with this one.
Hi, AndreaDuncan. Thanks for that feedback. I have forwarded it to the recipe team, but until the text changes here, try using 2.5 cups of almond flour instead of just one. You may also wish to downsize the recipe to keep things more affordable, or freeze extras for use on other days or in other weeks.
Mine was very liquid too & lumpy instead of smooth. We thought it was very strange & we had done something wrong so we tried a second time! Same thing happened.
Hi, Garaneda. How did you mix the ingredients? By hand or with a mixer, blender, or similar device?
I made these muffins for breakfast today I followed the instructions exactly. The batter was liquid so I wasn’t sure if they would turn out or if this was going to be a waste of ingredients. I had to bake them for 35 minutes for them to set and they weren’t golden brown. The berries had fallen to the bottom. I thought they had a bland taste and were more like a crustless quiche. The leftovers need to be refrigerated.
Hi, Lucidgls. Thank you very much for that feedback. I will forward it to the recipe team.
Hi, Lucidgls. Try increasing the amount of almond flour to 2.5 cups.
Is alcohol aloud while on the keto diet?
Hi, Carlosmom. Yes, but just the very low-carbohydrate types, such as dry wines and grain liquors (not liqueurs!), that you can mix with unsweetened soda water and squeezes of fresh lemon or lime. A serving size is 4 fluid ounces of wine or 1.5 fluid ounces of liquor, which you can substitute for your snack. If you do this, then be sure to load up on “free” vegetables earlier in the day to make up for the lack of veetables at your snack – these include greens, cucumbers, scallions, celery, turnip, and kohlrabi.
Can not stand taste of Stevie is spends ok
Hi, Ritak65. We don’t recommend Splenda (sucralose) or any other artificial sweetener, because they can work against your efforts here. If you don’t like Stevia, try erythritol – note that blends of Stevia with erythritol (such as Truvia) taste similar to Splenda.
Can I use natural cane sugar I do not like any of the diet sugars. Or can I use honey
Hi, Ronnie9999. Using real sugar or honey can reduce the ketogenic nature of a food, so be aware. In many of our keto recipes, you can get away with adding about a teaspoon of sugar or honey per serving (in this particular recipe, even 2 teaspoons per serving, or 8 teaspoons for the entire recipe).
If you have this question about specific recipes, just post there, and I will tell you how much you can add.
How many muffins do I eat??? I’m confused
Hi, Nadiag19. You eat one muffin in a meal.
I will make these again, with a minor revision. I’ll use a little less salt and a little more swerve. They were good. I couldn’t find an equivalent for a packet of Stevia so I guessed and guessed wrong. Keep up the good work.
How many muffins does this Recipe make?
Hi, nlekarczyk1. This recipe makes 4 large, 8 medium, or 16 small muffins. A serving is 1/4 of the recipe.
I didn’t read any of the comments, and therefore, I was very confused as to how to proportion the mix. Could you please update your instructions to include the size of muffins, how many it makes. Also, I think it would be beneficial for newcomers to know that when mixing the liquid ingredients it is important to beat the butter smooth, then add the eggs and mix well, then add the coconut milk. Unfortunately, I didn’t do that and the liquids didn’t mix well. I am really looking forward to tasting the muffins when they are baked. What I like is that I can have a larger muffin. Thank you so much for the recipe. I think they will be good because other recipes have been very good.
Hi, Jeanqueen. The recipe information has been updated to clarify the size of each muffin.
How many muffins do I have for my breakfast serving?
Hi, nlekarczyk1. One muffin is a serving, including for breakfast.
Do recipes show the nutrition and calorie contents
Hi, debnemo63. We don’t work with calories in this program, but rather with meeting nutritional needs. All Trim Down Club recipes (and some from our Clubmembers) have exchange information at the end. These exchanges translate to the following approximate values:
1 carbohydrate exchange = 15 grams of carbohydrates + up to 3 grams of protein
1 protein exchange = 7 grams of protein + up to 5 grams of fat
1 fat exchange = 5 grams of fat
1 fruit exchange = 15 grams of carbohydrates
1 vegetable exchange = 5 grams of carbohydrates + up to 2 grams of protein
1 sweet exchange = up to 15 grams of carbohydrates + up to 5 grams of fat
1 free exchange = up to 5 grams of carbohydrates or up to 2 grams of protein or fat
So each serving of this recipe (1 muffin) yields 3.5 grams of protein + 15 grams of fat.
