Ingredients
Cupcakes:
- ½ cup butter, unsalted softened
- ½ cup erythritol
- ½ cup coconut flour
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 3 medium eggs
- 3 tablespoons water
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
Topping:
- 3 oz cream cheese softened
- ¼ cup blackberries
- 2 tablespoons cream, heavy or whipping
- 2 tablespoons erythritol powdered
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180C/350F degrees.
- Whisk the butter and erythritol together until creamy
- Add the eggs, one at a time
- Add the lemon juice and water. Keep whisking until smooth
- Stir the dry ingredients into the wet and mix well. If the batter seems too thick add more water. It should resemble cake/pancake batter.
- Place the batter into cupcake cases ¾ of the way up and bake for 20-25 minutes until the tops spring back lightly when touched.
- Remove and cool in the pan.
Make the Frosting
- Blend the topping ingredients until smooth. I used a hand blender but feel free to do an upper arm workout and try it with a spoon or fork!
- Slather the frosting over the cupcakes and decorate with blackberry
