***RECIPE REVISED***
It's springtime, and these lemon coconut flour cupcakes surely hits the spot. I brought out taste testers for this keto dessert, and it turned out to be a hit. Two people couldn't believe it was a sugar free cupcake, comparing it to a lemon girl scout cookie. A bit far fetched, but a compliment like that, I'll take it. Having a tasteful, springtime healthy snack is no issue with these coconut flour cupcakes. Did I mention a sugar free whipped frosting?
In a small bowl for dry ingredients. Add coconut flour, baking soda, salt, granulated sweetener and poppy seeds. Then mix with a fork or whisk
In a separate bowl for your wet. Cream the cream cheese then add in the lemon flavor. Next, beat one egg in at a time. Lastly, add in the melted butter.
Combine dry and wet ingredients together. Cover and allow to sit for 30 minutes.
Using cupcake liners, add mixture near the top leaving a little room for the cupcakes to rise. You will have to spoon it because batter will be thick.
Bake 20-25 minutes on 350 degrees F, checking at the 20 minute mark then in 5 minute intervals afterwards. Look for toothpick to go through the center all the way down and come out clean. May contain a few crumbs, but that's fine.
Peach Whipped Frosting
In a small bowl, add heavy whipping cream, peach extract, confectiounous sweetener
WIth a mixer on low speed begin mixing, gradually take the speed of mixer up until whipped cream forms. Icing will be very stiff, this is what you want.
