Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup (64g / 2.26 oz) Coconut Flour, sifted
  • 1 1/2 tsp (6g / 0.21 oz) Baking Powder
  • 3/4 tsp (2g / 0.07 oz) Ground Cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp (0.5g / 0.02 oz) Ground Ginger
  • 1/4 tsp (0.5g / 0.02 oz) Ground Nutmeg
  • 1/8 tsp (0.25g / 0.01 oz) Ground Cloves
  • 1/4 tsp (1.5g / 0.05 oz) Salt
  • 1/2 cup (96g / 3.39 oz) Granular Low-Carb Sweetener (e.g., Swerve or erythritol)
  • 1/4 cup (48g / 1.69 oz) Packed Brown Sugar Substitute (e.g., Sukrin Gold)
  • 1 cup (245g / 8.6 oz) Pumpkin Puree
  • 2 tbsp (28g / 0.99 oz) Butter, softened or melted
  • 1/2 cup (120ml) Heavy Cream
  • 3 Large Eggs, room temperature
  • 2/3 cup (75g / 2.65 oz) Sugar-Free Dried Cranberries
  • Non-stick cooking oil spray
  • 12-count muffin tin with paper liners
  • Pro-Tips for Perfect Muffins
  • For the best texture, ensure your eggs, heavy cream, and pumpkin puree are at room temperature. This helps the emulsify properly for a smooth, uniform batter.
  • For an extra touch of flavor, consider adding 1/2 teaspoon (10 ml / 0.3 fl oz) of vanilla or maple extract to the wet . You can also swap the individual spices for 1 1/2 teaspoons (10 ml / 0.3 fl oz) of a pre-made pumpkin pie spice blend.

Method
 

  1. Preparation Method
  2. Preheat & Prep: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  3. Line a 12-count muffin tin with paper liners and lightly grease them with non-stick cooking spray. 2.
  4. Combine Dry : In a medium bowl, sift or whisk together the coconut flour, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, and salt.
  5. Set aside. 3.
  6. Mix Wet : In a separate large bowl, use an electric mixer on a medium setting to beat the granular sweetener, brown sugar substitute, pumpkin puree, melted butter, heavy cream, and eggs until smooth and well combined. 4. Create the Batter: Pour the dry into the wet .
  7. Mix on low speed just until the batter comes together.
  8. Do not overmix. 5.
  9. Fold and Fill: Gently fold the sugar-free dried cranberries into the batter. Evenly distribute the batter among the 12 prepared muffin cups. 6.
  10. Bake to Perfection: Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean and the tops are springy to the touch. 7.
  11. Cool Completely: Let the muffins cool in the tin for 5-10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely before storing.
  12. Let the batter rest for 5-10 minutes after mixing. This allows the super-absorbent coconut flour to fully hydrate, resulting in a much moister final product.
  13. Don't overmix the batter once you combine the wet and dry .
  14. Mix only until no dry streaks remain. Overmixing develops gluten and can make coconut flour baked goods tough.
