Instructions
Muffins
- Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C), fan forced.
- Whisk eggs and sweetener until fluffy. Pour in the melted butter. Add the baking powder, salt, psyllium husk, and whisk to combine.
- Add the rest of the ingredients and keep whisking until you get a smooth batter. Allow to swell for a few minutes.
- Shape small balls of the batter and place in the muffin moulds. Bake for 15 minutes or until they have a nice color and are baked through. Allow to cool.
Lime cream
- Over medium high heat, whisk eggs, sweetener and lime until it starts to thicken. Be careful so it doesn't start boiling, then it will turn into scrambled eggs.
- Remove from the heat. Add the butter in pieces and stir until it has melted.
- Place the cream in the refrigerator until it thickens.
- To make the cupcakes, pipe or spoon a little lime cream on top of each muffin.
- If you want, top each cupcake with a redcurrant and decorate the serving tray with lime wedges.
