Keto Chocolate Sour Cream Cupcakes!

This recipe for keto chocolate sour cream cupcakes produces the richest, moistest chocolate cupcakes you will ever have. 

Made with a combination of almond and coconut flour, this recipe is a chocolate lover’s dream! 

As a huge fan of all things chocolate, I found it perfect to include a chocolate cupcake that was keto-friendly.

Can a person have too many low-carb keto chocolate recipes? I thought you would agree with me, but that could never be a problem. 

I have a complete list of Keto Cakes that as a fan of cakes I encourage you to also visit. 

Keto Chocolate Cupcakes

These low-carb chocolate cupcakes include sour cream, a little secret ingredient I learned to use years ago when wanting to make a baked good extra moist.

If you haven’t had this combination before, you are in for a real treat.

The recipe also includes a bold cup of coffee for an added depth of flavor. Something about coffee that truly enhances the flavor of chocolate.

You can always make it decaf if you are concerned about caffeine. Or simply use water instead.

Easy Keto Chocolate Cupcakes

Full of rich chocolate flavor yet void of sugar and wheat flour, these cupcakes will fool your taste buds. 

Some may call these keto chocolate muffins since I opted not to frost them and that’s ok with me. The truth is these are so chocolatey that frosting is totally optional.

But if you are wanting a recipe for a keto chocolate buttercream frosting, you can grab the recipe I’ve included in my keto chocolate coconut cake recipe.

The best part is that these are not only delicious but super easy to make. 

Made with basic keto baking staples you can turn to this keto option and stay the course whenever chocolate cravings strike.

• Baking chocolate
• Granulated sugar substitute
• Finely milled almond flour
• Coconut flour
• Coffee
• Sour cream
• Eggs 
• Butter

Sugar Substitute Options

When it comes to choosing which sugar substitute to use for these easy keto chocolate cupcakes, I have several options for you.  

Lakanto Monk Fruit is hands down my favorite. Because the texture and flavor are what I have found to be the closest to real sugar and because there is barely any aftertaste. 

Having said that, I’m also partial to the brand Swerve, which is an erythritol blend. Similar to Lakanto it uses sugar alcohols, and has a 0 % impact on blood sugar.

If you are wondering why I have not mentioned any stevia-based sweeteners, it’s because I do not feel it pairs well with chocolate recipes.

I find that it accentuates the bitterness in stevia and it’s why I do not recommend it in this recipe. 

Keto Chocolate Sour Cream Cupcakes

I decided to share my keto chocolate sour cream cupcake recipe in time for Resurrection Sunday (Easter). I couldn’t think of a better recipe to help celebrate our Christian Faith.

These low-carb chocolate sour cream cupcakes are the perfect healthy treat to enjoy during this holiest season.

Whether it is called Easter or Resurrection, Day is not as important to this girl as the event and purpose of the resurrection.

Jesus’ death on the cross and resurrection are God’s provisions for the perfect and final sacrifice for man’s sins. It’s the only payment God accepts for the remission of our sins.

Accepting God’s Provision

I was twelve years old when I made the decision to accept Christ as my Savior, which was many moons ago. However, it was such a powerful defining moment in my life, that I can recall with great detail everything about that day.

In fact, I can even tell you exactly what I was wearing and who prayed with me. Honestly, this really surprises me since most days, I can’t remember what I wore a week ago.

Without a doubt, trusting Jesus as my savior was the best decision I ever made and it marked me for life.

That day was the beginning of a new and glorious life for me. It started me on a lifelong journey of transformation that radically changed my life.

The Christian road has not always been an easy one for me. My faith has had many opportunities to be tested.

But no matter how challenging life sometimes gets, I can’t imagine my life without Him. I always say better to go through this with His help, than to try my own best efforts without him.

Easter Or Resurrection

Can I tell you that it really does not matter to me if you call it the day that we commemorate the sacrifice that Christ made on the cross, Easter or Resurrection Sunday?

I know that may not sit well with some people, but frankly, I am not about to stop a child from collecting Easter eggs in the same way; I would never put a blockade on Santa Claus during Christmas.

After all, it’s up to us as adults to teach the children the true meaning of these Christian holidays. Why not let them get excited about the holidays and let that enthusiasm open the door for meaningful conversations?

Why So Much Sugar During The Holidays?

What I think most will agree with is that (Easter) Resurrection Sunday offers no shortage of sweets.

Whether it’s the vast array of jelly beans, chocolate-covered eggs, or solid chocolate crosses, sugar-laden foods seem abundant.

I mean, even the traditional holiday ham is covered in drippy, sugary syrup.

This year, I challenge you to enjoy the festivities but also offer a healthier option like these keto chocolate sour cream cupcakes.

Lastly, I find no harm if you choose to participate in an Easter egg hunt with the little ones for the sake of tradition. I won’t even fault you for sneaking a treat from their basket.

Holiday traditions are made for lasting memories. But why stop there? Instead, may I also encourage you to make every effort to also take those same little ones to church on Easter Sunday?

Why not allow a Sunday School teacher to pour into their lives and share the true meaning behind this holiday?

I sure hope you will give this recipe a try. Once you do, make sure you remember to tag us on Instagram and Facebook. It’s what keeps this girl encouraged to keep sharing and perfecting her recipes.
