These keto funfetti cupcakes are everything a cupcake should be – soft, moist, sweet, buttery – without all the high carbs and sugar. They’re super simple to make, gluten-free, oil-free, and higher in protein than your typical cupcake. Including the frosting, each one is only 180 calories, with 2g net carbs and 7g of protein!
I used blanched almond flour as the base, with egg + an egg white, and Greek yogurt as moisture and binding agents. No oil or butter needed in the cake batter! I couldn’t believe how moist they came out.
This recipe makes a perfect small batch of 6 delicious keto funfetti cupcakes. If you’d like a full dozen, simply double all the measurements!
While sprinkles do contain sugar, I used such a small amount (only 2 tsp in the whole recipe) that it adds negligible sugar to each cupcake. However, there are companies that make sugar-free sprinkles out there, which you can feel free to use as well.
