    If you are a lemon lover, you are going to love these keto lemon muffins.  They are bursting with lemon flavor and so easy to make!

    Just like with all of my muffin recipes, these only require a handful of ingredients, minimal prep, and they store so easily in the fridge or freezer.

    How would it feel to start losing with keto?

    Join my FREE 7 day keto challenge!

    It is a simple procedure of mix and bake.

    I use a muffin tin with liners and I always spray the inside of the liners with cooking spray to insure they do not stick.

      These set up perfectly! They looked like regular cupcakes full of sugar and gluten – but the taste was so good! Loved the glaze! A friend asked for these instead of a birthday cake. Yum!

      I am on a muffin mission. I have made the blueberry several times and the chocolate chip. Both are delicious. This is next. I wonder how this recipe would be if you added blueberries?

        I added blueberries to her coffee cake muffins. It was really good. I will probably try it in half of this recipe when I make it.

      Hi Jennifer, I would love to know the nutrition facts without the icing? These are delicious by the way.

        The icing doesn’t have much nutritional value since the sweetener is zero net carbs.

      These are delicious! Mine seemed to not rise as much as normal muffins (maybe my baking soda is old?) but they still tasted wonderful.. I will definitely make these again soon!

      This is a wonderful recipe. At first, I thought they weren’t going to be very good because I tried them warm and they had a strange texture. Once they were cool, they were very good. Nice lemon flavor.
