Do you love low carb muffins? Then you’re in luck. I’ve got 35 of the best low carb and sugar free muffin recipes right here. Delicious grain-free and keto muffin recipes for your snacking pleasure.
It’s no secret that I am a muffin fanatic. You might even go so far as to call me a muffin addict. There’s no shame in loving muffins this much, is there? Especially when they are low carb muffins.
Honestly, my friends, I daresay that I have more keto muffins recipes than any other blogger out there. No surprise, really. I’ve been doing this low carb thang for 9 years now and I am quite proficient at keto baking. And I love muffins!
My love of muffins did not start in my low carb days. Oh no, I’ve had a very longstanding love of all things muffin as far back as I can remember. Maybe it’s genetic. I think my mother is a muffin lover too.
She used to whip up muffins for us all the time when we were kids. Bran muffins were her specialty. Hot out of the oven with butter melting on them, oh my! What a joy it was to wake up in the mornings to a batch of freshly baked muffins.
I love having freshly baked muffins ready for my kiddos too. They are sure to be muffin addicts too.
The Benefits of Low Carb Muffins
Thank goodness that my favorite breakfast treat is so easy to make low carb and gluten-free. It took some trial and error at the beginning of my keto baking career to get low carb muffins right. But once I figured out the right proportions of low carb flours and other ingredients, I was on my way to morning happiness.
One thing I love about low carb muffins is their portability. Once they’re made, you can just grab them and go about your day. Take them to work, to the beach, to a party, whatever you need. Some, like my Pecan Pie Muffins, are even sturdy enough to travel and last well for several days out of the fridge.
Another huge plus for these healthy sugar-free muffin recipes is that almost without exception, they can be made ahead and frozen. I make big batches at a time and after I let them cool, I pop them in a ziplock bag. They can last months and are easily warmed in an oven or microwave.
My kids are low carb muffin fiends, just like their mother. Depending on your choice of flavours, muffins are family friendly and kid friendly. Mine are particularly enamoured of my Keto Double Chocolate Muffins.
And they are infinitely customizable too. Low carb muffin batter is like a blank slate, begging you to add your favorite inclusions and flavours. Don’t like cranberries? Add blueberries instead! Not a nut fan? Skip them or add chocolate chips. The sky’s the limit for keto muffin flavors. Get wild and go crazy!

I made your Maple Walnut Muffins on this list (from the Swerve site: https://swervesweet.com/recipes/maple-walnut-muffins)
I used a little brown Swerve along with the regular Swerve. Warm with butter: so, so good! This will be in my regular rotation now. Thanks so much.

Is there anything that can replace the whey protein powder I cannot have whey but the coffee cake muffin recipe looks so good.
Carolyn says
Egg white protein powder works to.
patricia says
All your recipes look so delicious and I used to be able to make them. Now I have become allergic to eggs so cannot make these delicious looking recipes. Only good thing….I feel much better without the eggs now !

Thank you very much for this round up, Carolyn!
I was looking for some low carb muffin recipes because their portable and freezable. Which means I can eat breakfast, and I can stay on track. I didn’t expect to find 35 in one post, sweet and savory to boot. And so much of them look absolutely delicious. Definitely speaking my language here. thanks again

Do you have a carb free bran muffin recipe? I didn’t see one on the list.
Carolyn says
Bran is not typically low carb. There are ways to fake it with flax but a lot of people don’t like flax.
SJ says
I’ve loved the Maple Walnut Muffins from Swerve Sweet for a year now, and I am NOT at all shocked that the recipe is yours! Of course! they’re a go-to whenever I want a snack I can grab on the run, or pack in lunches or sneak mid-day when work is boring! Thanks 🙂
Carolyn says
So glad you like them!
EJ says
wish there was a way to print all in 1 click instead of going to each recipe, scrolling to find the recipe and then printing.
Pam says
Hi Carolyn,
I’ve been recently looking for some keto recipes low in saturated fat and I tried four of your muffin recipes that fit the bill this weekend. They are really sensational and now I have a stash in the freezer to use for a healthy breakfast or snack. Thanks so much!
Carolyn says
So glad to hear it!
jenny says
This is a great list! Thanks for sharing my Chocolate Cream Cheese Muffins 🙂
Carolyn says

Taryn says
Thanks for including my blueberry muffins!
Julianne says
What a great collection of Keto friendly muffins! Thanks for including my recipe in this most impressive lineup!
Idania says
I love the collection of keto muffin recipes. Do you have a book version of all of these, so I can have them all in one place, and be adventurous: soemtimes I know I want a muffin, but I make it in the morning. A book would be easier for me to leaf through to find what I’m in the mood for. Thanks!
Carolyn says
I do not have a muffin specific book, no.
Chad Johnson says
Do you have high altitude versions of your baking recipes?
I live in Denver (5280) so baking is always a little more of an adventure!
Thx
Carolyn says
I have never baked at altitude but a few readers have told me that you make many of the same changes you would for conventional baking.
