Keto Carrot Flax Muffins
I’ve been following a Keto diet for over a year now and have no idea why I’ve never made flax muffins. I know that flax seeds are extremely nutrient dense and healthy so I’m puzzled at what took me so long.
With that said, my first attempt was to make flax muffins into a spice cake version and add carrots for some fun color and texture. I am extremely pleased with the way these turned out and will keep these as a regular recipe in my Keto collection.
The wonderful thing about these muffins is that they can easily be eaten for a fast on-the-go breakfast but double as a delicious dessert when you top them with our Vanilla Buttercream Frosting.
