Notes
- Nutrition: For 1 cupcake not including any frosting.
- Frosting Options: Use my Keto Buttercream Frosting or a sweetened whipped cream. Both are delicious!
- Greek Yogurt: This is an unconventional keto ingredient that I have been loving lately in my keto baked goods. It makes the cupcakes so light and fluffy and actually has less carbs than sour cream!
- Cocoa Powder: Find one with the least amount of carbs. I like to use Ghirardelli.
- Low Carb Sweetener: Use a granular sweetener that is a 1 for 1 substitute for sugar. My favorite is Lakanto and you can find a coupon code at the bottom of this recipe card.
