Method
 

Preparing the Muffins
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a muffin pan with cupcake liners.
  2. Sift together the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, xanthan gum, erythritol, and salt in a mixing bowl.
  3. Whisk the eggs in a separate bowl until light yellow and frothy, about 2 minutes.
  4. Beat the butter until creamy, then mix in the heavy cream, fresh lemon juice, lemon rind, and vanilla.
  5. Combine the dry ingredients with the wet ingredients gradually, mixing until just blended.
  6. Fill each muffin cup slightly over the top with the batter. Bake for 25-28 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean.
  7. Cover loosely with foil after 10 minutes of baking to prevent over-browning.
Making the Glaze
  1. Prepare the glaze while the muffins are baking by heating allulose and additional lemon juice in a saucepan until clear. Allow it to cool before drizzling it over the muffins.
  2. Sprinkle fresh lemon rind over the glazed muffins once they have cooled.
