1/2 tsp of baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp nutmeg

Method for Pineapple Carrot Cake Protein Muffins
Firstly, preheat oven to 170 Degrees C.
While waiting for the oven to heat up, add all of the ingredients into the processor.
Then, mix and process the mixture until you get a smooth batter result.
Once happy with the texture, remove the blade from the food processor and carefully give the mixture a final stir. We love the aroma of this mixture!
Place into lined muffin pans and bake for 12 minutes. Once 8 minutes has passed, check the oven every 2 minutes. Take out once you’re happy with the colour and when it’s cooked.
For the icing, 1 cup of Lakanto icing mixture And coconut cream. Refrigerate the coconut cream in a can and after about two hours, remove the can from the fridge and use the coconut cream that has turned solid. Mix about 1/3 of a cup of the coconut cream together with the icing mixture and use vanilla paste to flavour if desired.
Serve and enjoy!
