    Moist keto coquito cupcakes are a delicious way to enjoy coquito in a dessert. Made with coconut flour and my sugar free keto coquito recipe these are a great low carb holiday cupcake.

    Light coconut flour cupcakes are slathered with a buttercream frosting both infused with coquito. Coquito is a Puerto Rican eggnog made with coconut and is definitely a liquor for coconut lovers.

    I will confess that I didn’t think this recipe was going to work. The cupcake mixture seemed a bit wet as I poured it into the cupcake liners but since I used coconut flour, I thought it would be okay. When I removed the baked cupcakes from the oven they still seemed too soft and I declared to the Chief Taster that the recipe was off. However, I was patient and let them cool and then eat one before the frosting went on. Much to my surprise they were light and moist. The frosting went on and a cupcake triumph was declared!

    How to make keto coquito cupcakes

    What You Need

    • Coquito - This sugar free coconut "nog" is used in the cupcake and the frosting.
    • Coconut Flour - A perfect low carb flour to make a coconut flavoured cupcake.
    • Butter - Grassfed if possible and unsalted.
    • Eggs - I use medium sized eggs
    • Erythritol - I used erythritol but any other low carb sweetener would be fin.
    • Allulose - Powdered allulose is great for the topping as there is no grainy texture. This can be substituted with another powdered low carb sweetener.
    • Cream cheese - For the frosting
    • Whipping Cream - No frosting is complete without cream!
