Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Almond flour
- 4 oz Full-fat cream cheese
- 0.25 cup Unsalted butter
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 tsp Corn extract
- 0.33 cup Erythritol
- 1 tsp Baking powder
- 0.25 tsp Salt
- 0.5 cup Coconut milk
- 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 0.25 tsp Xanthan gum
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a muffin tin or line with paper liners to prevent sticking.
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the cream cheese and butter together, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, erythritol, baking powder, xanthan gum, and salt.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until fluffy and foamy. Stir in the melted cream cheese and butter mixture, corn extract, and coconut milk.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until well combined and a batter forms. Fold in the grated Parmesan cheese.
Spoon the mixture evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove from oven and let the Keto Pamonhas cool in the tin for at least 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm and enjoy your Keto Pamonhas, a delicious low-carb homage to the traditional Brazilian treat!
