When I am during the middle of my first 30 days of the keto diet and going through my “detox” phase, my body suddenly starts to crave sugar and sweets like no one’s business. And, I’m not even a huge sweets person either!

It’s quite fascinating how the body starts to crave something you are trying to avoid, especially sugar. When I normally start to get those cravings, there are a few recipes I like to make to keep myself on track and not throw myself off of ketosis while still fueling my body.

I like to filter through a few but one of my all-time favorites in this recipe for coconut flour muffins with shredded zucchini! It’s not overly sweet and yet satisfies my cravings (plus there are a few hidden veggies too).

Since I love those coconut muffins so much, I took that recipe and gave it a fresh spin.

Using a keto pancake mix as the base, I came up with these turmeric muffins! Let me tell you- These muffins could not be more simple to make. They are delicious!

Ingredients Needed For Turmeric Coconut Flour Muffins

There are only 4 simple ingredients in these scrumptious muffins.

Here’s what you need:

Turmeric Latte Spice Mix

To make these muffins, I used a bottle of turmeric spice mix from Global Belly. When you use it, you don’t have to measure out each spice individually. It will save you so much time!

Just like the name implies, you can also use this mix to make your own golden milk lattes too.

It’s made up of a blend of turmeric, ginger, cardamom, cinnamon, black pepper, and nutmeg.

Low Carb Yum Pancake Mix

Did you know we created our own line of keto-friendly pancake mix? No more wondering what substitutions you can make if you don’t have the ingredients!

This pancake mix is made up of mostly coconut flour. When you use it to make pancakes, they turn out perfectly fluffy every single time.

Butter

To make the muffins, always use melted butter that is unsalted. You don’t need extra salt in the butter.

Almond Milk

I recommend using unsweetened almond milk when you do any low-carb baking. You could use coconut milk as a substitute as well.

Please note: Check out the recipe card at the bottom for a full list of ingredients used to make this low-carb recipe.

Quick Tips:

  • For best results, use the weight measurement (90 grams) instead of cups for the pancake mix.
  • The pancake mix already has sweetener in it, but if you want your muffins to taste sweet, I suggest adding a little more of your favorite sugar substitute.
  • You could bake the muffin mix in a mini loaf pan and make tiny loaves of turmeric bread instead.
  • They are fully cooked when you insert a toothpick into the muffins, and it comes out clean!

How To Make Homemade Turmeric Muffins

This recipe could not be any easier! All of the exact steps are in the printable recipe card at the bottom of this post. First, I have some additional tips and some step-by-step photos to share with you.

Mix The Dry Ingredients

Start by mixing all the dry ingredients together first. This means combining the pancake mix, turmeric spice blend, and the sweetener (if you are using it).

Add The Liquid Ingredients And Let It Sit

Then, mix in the melted butter and almond milk. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes. This will give the batter time to thicken up, making the muffins taste so much better (and turn out fluffier).

Bake The Muffins

Finally, bake the muffins.

You’ll know the muffins are completely done when you do the toothpick test. Insert a toothpick into one of the muffins – if it comes out clean, they are done!

Let them cool on a cooling rack and then enjoy!

What To Serve With Turmeric Coconut Flour Muffins

These muffins are the perfect side dish for almost any meal. Since the main spices are turmeric and ginger, I suggest eating them with something that has Asian or umami flavors like low-carb teriyaki chicken or sweet and sour chicken.

You could also serve them with Indian food like my favorites – keto butter chicken or pork curry in the slow cooker.

Want to eat them for breakfast? Warm them up and add a bit of salted butter. Yum!
