Red Velvet Cupcakes
Red Velvet Cupcakes are the ultimate desert and these happen to not only be delicious but also sugar free.
These cupcakes are great with kids due to their awesome flavor profile.
My daughter and her friend devoured these cupcakes the other day as a healthy afternoon snack.
My daughter even asked me to make her a red velvet birthday cake using this recipe.
I love to make low carb snacks for my daughter and it makes me extra happy when her non low carb friends taste test.
What makes a good Red Velvet Cupcake?
The key to making a good red velvet cupcake is to not over flavor the cupcake with cocoa powder.
I flavor my cupcakes with just enough cocoa to get the flavor across without overpowering the cupcake.
Keto Sweeteners
I have made keto Red Velvet Cookies in the past and I used xylitol. Xylitol is an excelled low carb sweetener but my favorite sweetener these days is Golden Monk fruit.
It is a delicious because of the combination of erythritol and monk fruit. Golden Monk fruit has a rich flavor and it does not have any weird aftertaste. (Click here to save 15% off using code: OMGKETO15 )
Olive Oil Cupcakes
These Red Velvet Keto cupcakes are moist and delicous inside due to the fact that they are olive oil cupcakes.
Olive oil cakes are moist and dense and bake up just like a normal cake because of the large amount of oil saturating the almond flour.
Since the red comes merely from food coloring red velvet flavored cakes and cupcakes taste like a chocolate cupcake.
Since these cupcakes are made using an olive oil base they get better after a day.
They will keep best in the refrigerator for 4 to 5 day’s.
The reason why Red Velvet cakes and cupcakes are so popular is due to the velvety chocolate texture and red color.
These cakes just scream decadence and are easy to make.
