These nut free Keto Jalapeño & Cheddar Cauliflower Muffins are oh so cheesy and delicious! Perfect alongside your bacon and eggs for breakfast, or as a side to your favorite keto soup or chili – these low carb cheddar muffins are going to be a hit any time of day!
I made these low carb cauliflower muffins last week and have been super excited to post about them ever since! Over the course of 2 days, I pretty much only ate these keto jalapeño & cheddar cauliflower muffins, and was happy to do it.
In fact, I was super disappointed when they were all gone, and no I did NOT offer to share with anyone else in the family! ?
These keto jalapeño & cheddar cauliflower muffins don’t really have a bready texture like a muffin, but I wasn’t sure what else to call them. They are cheesy and hearty and taste amazing!
Firm and chewy if you eat them cold, these keto jalapeño & cheddar cauliflower muffins get all soft and cheesy/gooey in the center when you heat them up slightly in the microwave.
SO GOOD!
These keto jalapeño & cheddar cauliflower muffins go perfectly with some some eggs for breakfast or as a veggie side dish to any protein for dinner. Very kid friendly, they are fun to eat and have virtually no cauliflower flavor.
I just bought another head of cauliflower so that I can make these low carb cauliflower muffins again this weekend – I already can’t wait! Hope you guys like them too, as always let me know how they come out!

Well, I sure did my “shouting from the rooftops” for this recipe (I mean, shared it on Facebook) because it was so good I could not stop eating the muffins! It was my dinner delight! And this was my VERY FIRST TIME to use coconut flour, so I am convinced about how useful it can be (instead of white flour). So happy here, on this Saturday night, thanks for posting this wonderful recipe. Every one in my house loved the muffins!
