Ingredients
  • 3 cups blanched almond flour
  • ¾ cup peeled, chopped apple
  • 3 eggs
  • ¾ cup coconut oil or grapeseed oil
  • ¾ cup honey
  • 1½ tsp cinnamon
  • ¾ tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • additionally, ½ tsp cinnamon plus 1 tsp coconut sugar for topping
  • 15-18 muffin/cupcake liners
Instructions
  1. NOTE: I buy blanched almonds at Trader Joe's and grind them into a fine powder with my coffee grinder.
  2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  3. In a medium size glass mixing bowl, add almond flour, chopped apple, eggs, oil, honey, cinnamon, baking soda, and sea salt.
  4. Stir to combine ingredients.
  5. Place muffin liners in muffin tins.
  6. Fill liners to ⅔ full.
  7. Mix ½ tsp cinnamon with 1 tsp of coconut sugar.
  8. Sprinkle mix on top of muffins.
  9. Place muffins in 350 degree oven for 22 min.*
  10. *Bake time may change depending on location. Some say they take up to 26 minutes to bake. Muffins are typically finished baking when you begin to smell them, and they bounce back to the touch. They taste best when not over cooked.
