Preheat oven to 350ºF. Line 12-count cupcake tin with silicone, foil, or paper cupcake liners. If using foil or paper liners, spray them with nonstick cooking spray
In a small bowl whisk together dry ingredients: almond flour, sweetener, cocoa powder, xantham gum, and baking powder. Set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, sour cream, vanilla extract and salt until well-blended.
Add the dry ingredients to the bowl of wet ingredients, and, using a wooden spoon or spatula, stir together until combined, about 30 strokes. Fold in melted coconut oil.
Divide batter evenly among the 12 cupcake cups, and bake 20 – 24 minutes. When they are finished, cupcakes will have a crackly appearance on top, and they will yield to gentle pressure when touched. Remove and let cool completely.
Add a Keto frosting, and enjoy!
Note
Xantham gum helps the cupcakes stay moist and chewy
