Keto Blueberry Cream Cheese Muffins

These muffins came from a craving for something soft, sweet, and keto-friendly—something between cheesecake and a muffin. Made with cream cheese, juicy blueberries, and a touch of vanilla, they’re low in carbs but full of creamy, fruity flavor. Perfect for breakfast, snacks, or a light dessert.

Ingredients

Scale

16 oz cream cheese, softened

½ cup low-carb sweetener (like erythritol or monk fruit)

2 eggs (use 4 for a fluffier, more cake-like texture)

¼ tsp xanthan gum (optional, for structure)

½ tsp sugar-free vanilla extract

¼ cup blueberries

¼ cup sliced almonds (optional, for topping)

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line or grease a muffin tin.

In a bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth.

Add sweetener, eggs, xanthan gum (if using), and vanilla. Mix until well combined.

Gently fold in blueberries.

Spoon batter evenly into muffin cups. Top with almonds if using.

Bake for 20–25 minutes, until centers are just set and edges are slightly golden.

Cool completely before removing—they firm up as they chill. Best served cold or at room temp.
