Ingredients

Instructions 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease with non-stick spray.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, granulated erythritol, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and salt.
  • In a separate bowl, combine pumpkin puree, eggs, almond milk, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth.
  • Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until fully incorporated and no lumps remain.
  • In a small bowl, make the cream cheese filling by mixing softened cream cheese, powdered erythritol, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  • Fill each muffin cup about 2/3 full with the pumpkin batter.
  • Spoon a small dollop of the cream cheese filling onto the center of each muffin and use a toothpick or knife to gently swirl it into the batter.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the muffin (avoiding the cream cheese swirl) comes out clean.
  • Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

For best results, use room-temperature cream cheese for the filling. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
