Keto Chocolate Chip Muffin Variations
We adore these chocolate chip muffins just the way the recipe is written. However, if you want to add in some extras, then feel free. Here are a few of the ideas we like to have every once in a while.
- Almond Extract – If you love the flavor of almond extract, then add in ½ teaspoon to the batter. It’s a great combination with the other ingredients and gives you a rich flavor.
- Cinnamon – Add just a sprinkle of cinnamon to the batter. We love to do this during the fall when we crave lots of spicy recipes.
- Nuts – Giving the muffins a little crunch, adding nuts is one of my favorite ways to change them up. Walnuts are my favorite, but you could use pecans, almonds, or hazelnuts as well.
How Long Do Keto Muffins Last?
As long as the chocolate chip muffins are stored airtight they typically last for 3-4 days. It’s essential to keep them away from anything that’s hot like small kitchen appliances, your stove, or direct sunlight. Heat and air will make them spoil faster.
