Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup almond flour
  • 2 tbsp zero calorie sweetener (Swerve) pourable, cup for cup
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1/4 tsp konjac (Glucomanan) powder
  • 1/4 tsp baking powder
  • 2 tbsp butter, melted
  • 1 lg egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract or 1/2 tsp vanilla bean powder
  • 1/2 tsp. imitation butter flavoring (optional)
  • 1 tbsp heavy cream

Instructions

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Put 4 paper liners in either cupcake tin or silicone cupcake molds on a cookie sheet. Spray with vegetable oil spray, if desired.
  • In a small mixing bowl (or cereal bowl) stir together the dry ingredients: almond flour, sweetener, salt, Glucomanan, and baking powder.
  • Add all the wet ingredients: melted butter, cream, vanilla extract, vanilla, imitation butter flavoring (opt) , and egg.  
  • Stir all ingredients until thoroughly mixed and not lumpy.
  • Divide batter evenly into 4 previously prepared cupcake liners. Place in oven  and bake 14-16 minutes.  (Tops of cakes will be light colored, but lose their glossiness when cupcakes are done.)

Notes

Tip:  If using a cupcake tin:  add 1 tsp of water to each of the wells that are not in use to keep the pan from burning or warping.
