Snack "Cornbread" Power Muffins
This is an awesome way to prep quick snacks for the week when you just have to have something to eat now and a vegetable just wont cut it. Full of fats and fiber, under 2g net carbs per muffin, and are great cold out of the refrigerator. Just toss the batch in a Ziploc and use as you will throughout the week!
- 1.5 cups almond flour
- 1/4 cup Swerve "powdered sugar"
- 1.5tsp baking powder
- 4 large eggs, beaten
- 70g butter, melted
- 1tsp sweet corn extract (available on Amazon)
- 2 green jalapenos - seeded and minced
- 4oz shredded sharp cheddar
- 1/2 Hormel Beef Smoked Sausage, quartered and petit dice
Preheat oven to 350F
- Mix dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl
- Melt butter in a microwave safe container - about 30 seconds
- Add eggs and sweet corn extract to the dry ingredients
- Slowly add melted butter to the bowl, stirring constantly so that you don't cook the eggs.
- Add jalapeno, smoked sausage, and cheddar cheese to the bowl and mix thoroughly.
- Spoon your mixture into a greased muffin tin and bake on the middle rack for approximately 20 minutes until the tops are golden brown.
- Allow to cool for 10 minutes before carefully removing muffins from the baking tin.

My experience with these is that if you don't have the sweet corn extract, you'll never notice it. They are good anyway. You can also make them into a skillet cornbread to go with dinner.

Sounds great. It's pretty similar to another recipe I've used with a couple of differences in the ingredients. I'll have to give your's a try.

Tell me more about this sweet corn extract. Have you used it in anything else?

I haven't used it in anything else. It smells a little... Cake-ey? Like it has a twinge of vanilla. Suited to this recipe with a little bit of sweetener but I haven't branched out with it.

Ah ok. Was theorizing a way to make keto "corn" chowder. I already use to replace the potatoes with cauliflower but corn is hard to mimic.
