Ingredients

Pumpkin Muffin Base:
• 1 cup butter, softened
• 1½ cups granulated erythritol (like Swerve)
• 8 large eggs
• 1½ cups pumpkin puree
• 2 tsp vanilla extract
• 3 cups almond flour
• 1 cup coconut flour
• 2 tbsp + 2 tsp baking powder
• 4 tsp pumpkin spice
• 1 tsp salt

Cream Cheese Filling:
• 16 oz cream cheese, softened
• 3 tbsp erythritol (optional for sweetened filling)

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line or grease 20 muffin cups.

In a large bowl, beat softened butter and erythritol until light and fluffy.

Add eggs one at a time, then mix in pumpkin puree and vanilla extract.

Stir in almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, pumpkin spice, and salt until well combined.

In a separate bowl, blend softened cream cheese (and sweetener if desired) until smooth.

Spoon muffin batter into cups, filling about ⅔ full. Add a spoonful of cream cheese mixture to the center of each and swirl slightly with a toothpick.

Bake for 22–28 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean (avoiding the cream cheese center).

Let cool before serving to allow the flavors to settle and the texture to firm.
