Instructions
Keto Lemon Cupcakes
  1. Preheat oven to 350F /180ÂșC.
  2. In a bowl, add the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, and sweetener of your choice. Whisk together, then set aside.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix the wet ingredients, eggs, vanilla extract, lemon juice and zest, and greek yogurt.
  4. Add the dry ingredients into the wet and mix with a stand mixer.
  5. Divide batter among 12 paper-lined muffin cups. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cupcake comes out clean, about 18 - 20 minutes.
  6. Remove from oven and allow to cool several minutes in a muffin tin, then transfer to a wire rack to cool slightly.
Mascarpone Cheese & Vanilla Frosting
  1. Whip the mascarpone and low carb powdered sweetener together in a bowl using a hand mixer.
  2. Add 1/4 cup of the heavy cream, vanilla extract, then mix until smooth and creamy.
  3. Add more of the heavy cream if needed, to get your desired consistency.
  4. Transfer the frosting to a piping bag (ziplock bag with the tip cut off will work too), and frost once the cupcakes have cooled completely.
