Tired of breakfast eggs? You don’t have to turn to highly processed baked goods for a delicious meal in the morning. These almond flour muffins are a delicious choice for breakfast, snack or dessert. Plus, you can add your favorite blend to customizable muffins.
Most of the time, I have eggs, fermented vegetables, and even breakfast. While my breakfast choices are sometimes a little unconventional, I stick to high protein. Healthy fats to regulate blood sugar.
Almond flour muffin
Not all of my kids have breakfast on sardines, so they prefer to toss some gluten-free muffins too. Over the years, we have made a lot of coconut flour muffins. These almond powder muffins are also free of cereals, paleo, sugar-free and dairy products.
If you omit arrow powder and coconut sugar, you can make them low-carb and ketones. If you are looking for keto muffins, swap the banana for yogurt.
Depending on your content, use a light almond flour or almond flour. I really like adding arrow powder to make these textures resemble regular wheat flour muffins. Even better, they can be customized to create a variety of flavors. Check out the list of optional flavors below the recipe for some ideas! By far, our favorite is the carrot cake almond flour muffin.
I don’t like my baked goods are really sweet, so this recipe is very sweet. If you want the muffin to be sweeter, taste and adjust the sweetener in the batter as needed.
