paleo blueberry muffins

Ingredients

  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 1/8 teaspoon baking soda
  • pinch of salt

Recently I have been trying to follow the Paleo and SCD diets as much as possible. Both of them eliminate grains, dairy, and refined sugars. Although eating this healthy is rewarding, there are downfalls; like not being able to eat grains, dairy and sugar. Thankfully there are many recipes out there that provide alternative ways to cook and bake the things you normally would. These blueberry muffins are a great example, they're fresh, delicious, and just as easy to make as normal muffins.

They are Grain Free, Gluten Free, and Low Carb.

Recipe makes 6 muffins. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.


Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven at 350°F
  2. In a large bowl mix the dry ingredients - almond flour, baking soda, salt
  3. In a separate bowl mix the wet ingredients - coconut milk, egg, honey and coconut oil
  4. Combine wet and dry ingredients and gently mix the batter using a rubber spatula. Do not over mix or the almond flour will become oily.
  5. Fold blueberries into the batter
  6. Pour batter into paper lined muffin pan cups and bake for 20-25 minutes or until tops turn golden brown. Wait until they are completely cool before removing them from the baking pan
