Bite Size Blueberry Muffins

Bite Size Blueberry Muffins

One of my favorite things to do is take a classic recipe that everyone loves (because who doesn’t love a blueberry muffin?!) and make it healthy! These healthified muffins are guaranteed to pass the test of just about any one – kids included 😉

Ingredients:

2 cups almond flour

3 eggs

2 tablespoons coconut oil, melted

2 tablespoons orange juice

1/4 cup pure maple syrup, or liquid monk fruit sweetener

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup blueberries

coconut sugar for topping

Step 1

Preheat oven to 325 fahrenheit. Line a mini muffin sheet and set aside.

Note: I only had one mini muffin sheet, so I used a mini loaf pan for the extra batter. You can save the extra batter or re line the muffin pan once first batch cools down.

Step 2

Combine all ingredients in a bowl, folding in blueberries LAST. Once you add the blueberries, do not stir vigorously.

Step 3

Fill muffin liners to the top and then sprinkle a small amount of coconut sugar on top. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.

Yup, they are that easy! Let me know what you think in the comments below ❤

Not Your Average Chocolate Chip Cookie

Let’s be honest, is there really anything better than the smell of freshly baked chocolate chip cookies? I think not!

Not only are these as delicious as they make your home smell, they are also Gluten & Dairy Free. And did I mention, ridiculously easy to make as well?

Ingredients:

1 egg

1/4 cup tahini

1/4 cup liquid monk fruit sweetener

3/4 cup almond flour

1/3 cup creamy cashew butter

1/3 cup coconut oil, melted

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/4 cup dairy free chocolate chips

Step 1

With an electric mixer, on medium speed, mix together all ingredients EXCEPT the chocolate chips. Once the dough comes together, add in chocolate chips and slowly mix in (the dough should be a little sticky).

Step 2

Refrigerate for roughly 20 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 375 degrees & line your cookie sheet with parchment paper.

Step 3

Using a 3/4 oz cookie scoop, scoop onto parchment lined baking sheet. Bake for 10 – 12 minutes, or until cookies are your desired texture.
