Cook Time 25 minutes
Total Time 45 minutes
Course Dessert, Snack
Servings 16 cupcakes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoon fresh blueberries
  • 1 tablespoon chocolate chips sugar-free or regular chocolate chips, depending on your dietary choices; cracked chocolate bar can also be used
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1.6 cups all-purpose flour 275g
  • 0.5 cups sugar 100g
  • 0.3 cups monk fruit sweetener 60g
  • 1.5 teaspoon baking powder
  • 0.5 cups butter room temperature
  • 0.4 cups heavy cream 100g

Instructions
 

  • Put butter, sugar, and sweetener into a large bowl and mix using a hand or stand mixer.
  • Add eggs and mix well.
  • In a separate bowl, combine the flour and baking powder (mix with a spoon).
  • Sift ⅓ of the flour into the egg mixture and mix using a spatula. Don't overwork it - you only need to combine the ingredients.
  • Add ⅓ of the heavy cream (or milk) and mix again using a spatula.
  • Repeat Steps 4&5 two more times.
  • Add blueberries and chocolate chips and mix lightly with a spatula to combine.
  • Place a muffin paper cup into each muffin tin cavity. Fill each muffin cup with the dough (only fill ⅔ of the cup to leave room for rising).
  • Bake for 20-25 mins at 355℉ (180℃).
  • Decorate with fresh berries and/or whipped cream.

Notes

  • If you're only using sugar (with no sugar alternatives), we suggest filling the tin cavities to only ⅔ because the muffins will rise more.
  • It's important to follow the directions carefully to ensure your muffins are fluffy and rise well.
  • Sifting the flour will ensure the dough is airy and the muffins rise well.
