Keto friendly dark chocolate and raspberry muffins made dairy free with our extra virgin cold pressed coconut oil. A gluten-free, dairy-free and Paleo muffin recipe that's as tasty as any you've had.
How to make Keto & Low Carb muffins
You can drastically reduce the carb content of any baking recipe by making a few simple swaps. In place of the usual sugar and flour, we have used erythritol (a natural sweetener) and grain-free almond flour.
We also opt for naturally lower in sugar dark chocolate and raspberries - which contain far less sugar compared with milk chocolate and many alternative dried fruits.
Each freshly baked, gorgeously gooey muffin contains just 2.5g carbs - compared with anywhere from the 50-70g carbs you'd find in a regular chocolate muffin.

Hunter & Gather Coconut Oil
Coconut oil is a great source of healthy fats including medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs). It is also solid at room temperature, with a buttery texture and subtle coconut flavour which makes it ideal for baking with.
Hunter & Gather Coconut Oil is a pure extra virgin oil which is cold pressed and completely natural. It is free from grains, seed oils and sugar - made with nothing but 100% pure coconut flesh.
As well as being great for adding to Keto and Paleo baking recipes, it can also be used as a cooking oil in savoury dishes - and can even be applied to hair and skin for a natural beauty treatment!
