Ingredients

US Customary - Metric

For the Cupcakes

  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 cup coconut milk
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon lime zest
  • 2 1/4 cups almond flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 cup shredded coconut unsweetened

For the Glaze

  • 1/2 cup powdered coconut sugar
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon lime zest

Instructions

For the Cupcakes

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a muffin tin with paper cupcake liners.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the eggs, coconut milk, honey, vanilla, lime juice, and lime zest. Mix on high speed until thick and frothy. The more air in the mixture from mixing the better!
  • Fold in the almond flour, baking soda, and coconut by hand just until combined. Scoop the batter into the prepared muffin cups and bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean. Let cool slightly before drizzling the glaze over top.

  • Combine all ingredients and mix well. Drizzle over cooled cupcakes.
