Ingredients
  

For the lemon cupcakes:

  • 2 ⅓ cup almond flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • ½ teaspoon xanthan gum
  • ¾ cup stevia/erythritol blend
  • 2 tablespoon lemon zest
  • 2 tablespoon butter melted
  • 3 large egg
  • ¾ cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 2 teaspoon lemon extract

For the raspberry frosting:

  • 16 ounce cream cheese softened
  • 2 tablespoon butter
  • cup stevia/erythritol blend
  • ¾ cup frozen raspberries
  • 3 tablespoon heavy whipping cream
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350F and line a cupcake pan with papers.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together almond flour, baking powder, salt, xanthan gum, sweetener, and zest until combined.
  • Whisk melted butter into the dry ingredients. The mixture should form into coarse crumbs.
  • Add eggs and stir until incorporated. The batter will begin to stick together.
  • Add almond milk, vanilla, and lemon extract and whisk until the batter is smooth.
  • Carefully fill the prepared cupcake papers until they are about ¾ full—about 2 heaping tablespoons for each cupcake.
  • Place cupcakes in preheated oven and bake for 29-32 minutes or until the cupcake bounces back when pressed.
  • Let cupcakes cool on a rack until they reach room temperature before frosting.
  • In a large bowl, whip together cream cheese and butter using an electric mixer.
  • Blend in sweetener and frozen raspberries until combined.
  • Add whipping cream, lemon juice, and vanilla and blend until smooth.
  • Using a piping bag, frost cupcakes as desired.
