Instructions
 

  • For Cupcakes
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees with the rack in the middle position. 
  • Line cupcake pan with paper liners.
  • In a mixer, combine egg whites with cream of tartar. Beat on high speed until soft peaks form.
  • Using a separate bowl, sift together almond flour, coconut flour, flax meal, salt, baking soda, and Pyure Organic Stevia Blend. 
  • Stir together the softened butter, coconut cream, Pyure Organic Harmless Hunny, and vanilla extract, then add this mixture to the egg white mixture. Turn mixer on the lowest setting as you begin to add the dry ingredients. 
  • Do not overmix.
  • Scrape down sides and turn the mixer on stir again until the cake batter is mixed.
  • Divide the batter into the cupcake pan using a spoon, filling each about 75% full.
  • Bake for 20 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean.
  • Allow the cupcakes to cool in the pan before removing it to frost.
  • For Frosting
  • In a mixer, combine cold cream cheese with softened butter, add Pyure Organic Maple Flavored Syrup and caramel extract. 
  • Turn off the mixer to add Pyure Organic Confectioners Stevia Blend, turn on the lowest setting until fully incorporated. Scrape down sides, mix again.
  • Add to piping bag and pipe onto cupcakes!
  • If desired, use optional caramel sauce and Maldon Sea Salt Flakes.

Notes

Cupcakes are delicious and absolutely satisfying with only the frosting. However, if you like the look of traditional caramel sauce and don't mind a teaspoon or so of coconut sugar, use option 2 for caramel sauce. 
If you need to stick to a strict no-carb diet, use option 1 "Low Carb Pale Caramel Sauce" which is the tastiest caramel sauce ever. Literally, I ate it straight from the spoon without the cupcake y'all. Yum. However, it doesn't "look" dark and rich like traditional caramel sauce.
