Keeping your blood sugar steady helps with weight loss, and adding erythritol here instead of white sugar ensures you satisfy your sweet tooth without compromising your glycemic control. Keeping blood levels steady is shown to improve cardiovascular health, and these Keto Coffee Cake Muffins also incorporate cinnamon, a great anti-inflammatory spice that neutralizes free radicals.

Antioxidants aside, you want to eat these for the taste, and you will keep coming back to this recipe for the flavor. The drizzle is a vanilla delight with the richness of cream thrown in. Be sure you allow your Keto Coffee Cake Muffins to be completely cooled before you add the drizzle so your crumble keeps its crunch. You can make these the night before and pop them in your lunchbox or treat yourself to the breakfast or dessert you deserve.

Because the base and the crumble include whey protein powder, you are getting a sustained hit of protein with some good fats. Plus, these delicious cakey muffins have four eggs – so your bases are covered for slow-release energy.
