The texture of almond and coconut flour is too grainy - and I will research ways to make or buy finer fake flour. It was not too eggy. It was a little bit moist. Toasting it helped. I put some no-sugar-added fruit jam on top and it was an adequate substitute. I imagine it would grow on a person if they were committed to giving up carbs. IMHO what is always missing in fake breads is the chewy texture.
I would make this again because it was fast, easy and not difficult to clean up.
My ramekin was the one that is s bit larger than 4-in when measured on the inside of the rim.
The cooking time for me was 1 min in the microwave - and might have needed a bit more - to make it a bit drier.
I did not have any nut milk on hand so I used whole milk.
I think a variation with lemon zest would be yummy if you like lemon.
Maybe a lemon - poppy seed hybrid faux-breadlike thing.

Recipe Notes
I made these low carb English muffins in a mug with a diameter of 7 cm. ****Update - I have since made them in classic ramekins like these with a 9 cm diameter which makes them a bit flatter but still tall/high enough to cut in half.
If you make 2 muffins at the same time, increase the microwave time to 2 minutes.
