It takes just 90 seconds to make a fluffy keto English muffin in the microwave. A quick and easy low-carb breakfast with only 6 ingredients.
PREPRATION TIME:
Prep Time: 3 minutes
Cook Time:1 minute
Total Time: 4 minutes
INGREDIENTS:
- 1 tablespoon coconut flour 8g
- 1 tablespoon almond flour (extra fine), 6g
- 1 tablespoon butter 14g, salted or unsalted. Use olive oil or coconut oil for dairy-free
- 1 egg
- ½ tablespoon almond milk or other nut milk, 7g
- ¼ teaspoon baking powder
INSTRUCTIONS
- Whisk the egg with a fork in a small mixing bowl.
- Add the melted butter and nut milk. Continue whisking with the fork until combined.
- Now add the dry ingredients – almond flour, coconut flour and baking powder. Stir until a smooth batter forms.
- Grease a ramekin with butter or oil. Then, fill the muffin batter into the ramekin. Level the top and microwave on high for 90 seconds.
- Remove the muffin from the ramekin and turn it out onto a plate. You may need to run a knife around the edges to release it.
- Slice the English muffin in half and serve it toasted and buttered.
Optional: Oven Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180 C / 350F. Instead of microwaving, bake the muffin in the oven for 15 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
NOTES
2g net carbs per muffin. Makes 1 keto English muffin.
I melt the butter in the microwave. This takes around 30 seconds. I use the same ramekin I later cook the muffin in. Swirl the butter around to coat it everywhere.
A 3.5-inch or 9-cm ramekin with a 6-ounce capacity is the perfect size for this muffin recipe. However, you can use any microwavable cup or mug with a flat bottom.
I have made this recipe in a number of microwaves. 90 seconds always seems to be the perfect cooking duration. However, the muffins may need 5 seconds shorter or longer in your microwave.
Store in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
