    These moist and delicious keto strawberry muffins are a delicious sweet treat that are also gluten free.   A tasty  cheesecake Struesel cake in a muffin form helps with portion control.

    These healthy strawberry muffins are made with layers of a soft coconut flour cake batter, chopped strawberries, a smooth vanilla cheesecake and then topped with a cinnamon crumble.   A great deal of flavour and texture in a tasty muffin you can enjoy for breakfast or a sweet treat.

    SUGAR-FREE, GLUTEN FREE, KETO MUFFINS

    Although these keto strawberry muffins are utterly delicious cold, I must confess that I ate one when they were still warm as I couldn’t wait.  They are great warm but will be very soft.  Try one warm, then try another later when cold and judge for yourself!  If you prefer them warm you can quickly zap the muffin in the microwave later.  The Chief Taster preferred his cold, so our house was divided.   When your domestic arguments are about a hot versus a cold muffin, it’s not a bad life!

    STRAWBERRIES ON KETO

    The strawberries give this muffin the perfect taste of summer for a sweet breakfast muffin.  Strawberries are allowed on a low carb keto diet in moderation. As well as having a natural sweetness they have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits.

    LOW CARB MUFFINS WITH COCONUT FLOUR

    The coconut flour bakes to give you a light and fluffy gluten free muffin with my trick of whisking the egg whites separately. It’s my favourite way of baking with coconut flour as it gives a light result every time.

    HOW TO STORE KETO STRAWBERRY MUFFINS

    The best way to store these muffins is in an airtight container in the fridge. Since they have a cheesecake layer they need to be kept in the fridge. Although I think they are best the day they are made, they will keep in the fridge for a couple of days. Give them a new lease of life it too dry after a couple of days by heating them in the microwave.

      These muffins are seriously good. I made them for the first time today. It will not be the last time I make them. I will be experimenting with fruits and adding some nuts to the topping. Yummo! Thanks for this recipe.

      Hi Angela, how are you coping in these dreadful times. Here in Northern Thailand we are not in total lock down, we can still go shopping for food and medicines and can still go out nearby for walking pets or exercising (ha).
      I am keeping myself busy sewing, on the computer, but mainly cooking. Love it.

      One question I have, I read that you say that net carb is total carb g minus fiber g but when you write the nutrients do you already do this or do we have to do this ourselves to get the net carbs.

      Good luck to you and your chief taster and keep up the good work

      Best regards Carol

        Hi Carol. The nutrients on the recipe will show the total carbs and the fibre, so you have to do the net carbs yourself, until the recipe card I uses shows it. Glad to hear you are safe in Thailand. We have now been instructed to be on total lock down for a week. We cannot leave the house, not even for a walk. Luckily there were rumours this was about to happen before the official announcement so I could make sure I have enough pet food for a week. Keep safe and happy baking!
