grain free muffins

Hello friends!

My husband and I are on  a grain free and dairy free diet (the GAPS diet) right now, so I've been having to get creative with baking. Here is a recipe I just tried the other day that turned out quite well! Enjoy!

GRAIN FREE MUFFINS

2 1/2 cups ground almonds (you could also use a mix of almonds, cashew, walnuts, pecans etc)

3 eggs

1/4 cup coconut oil, melted- not in the microwave.

1/2 cup raw honey

1/4 to 1/2 cup frozen or fresh blueberries

Preheat the oven to 300 degrees. Mix all ingredients together. Place greased muffin tins and bake until toothpick comes out clean. About 45 minutes to an hour.

coconut flour bread

Hello all! I tried this recipe a while back, and am just NOW posting it! So sorry! Anyway, this recipe is indeed different than the coconut bread that I posted a month ago or so. This recipe is actually made with coconut flour- crazy right?! The great thing about coconut flour is that it is NOT a grain so it is perfect for those that are gluten intolerant.
This recipe was great! It was for sure not what I was expecting it to taste like though. Don't think "bread"... think more like "coffee cake" texture. Its great for breakfast or for a snack but probably would not go well with savory dishes.
Give it a try! Tell me what you think!

love
