Did you know cinnamon is rich in antioxidants and has anti-inflammatory properties! Plus it helps to regulate your blood sugar. So in honor of cinnamon being so tasty and so good for you, here is a recipe for sugar free, low carb cinnamon streusel muffins. 

MUFFINS

• 1 cup coconut flour
• 1 cup almond flour
• 1/2 cup granulated allulose
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp baking soda
• 1 tsp salt
• 2 eggs
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 1/2 cup water 
• 2 tsp vanilla
• 1 cup butter, melted and cooled

STREUSEL

• 1/4 cup sugar free brown sugar, packed
• 1/4 cup almond flour
• 1 tsp ground cinnamon
• 2 Tbsp butter, cut into pieces

• Instructions

  • Place rack in center of the oven then preheat to 375 degrees. Coat a standard-size muffin tin with cooking spray or paper muffins cups then set aside.
  • Whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl then set aside.
  • In a separate, smaller mixing bowl, whisk together egg,cream,water,vanilla and melted butter. Add wet ingredients to the bowl containing the dry ingredients then mix until just combined.
  • Mix streusel ingredients in a small bowl using a fork to mash the brown sugar, flour and cinnamon together with the butter until combined but still crumbly.
  • Add ½ tsp of the streusel mixture to the bottom of each muffin cup. Pour enough muffin batter over the streusel to fill each cup a little less than half full. Add an additional ½ tsp streusel mixture over the batter then finish by filling each cup with remaining muffin batter.
  • Use a toothpick or butter knife to lightly swirl the batter and distribute the streusel through the center of the muffin. Sprinkle all remaining streusel over the top of the muffins.
