Almond Flour Gluten-Free Zucchini Muffins
Description
Almond Flour Gluten-Free Zucchini Muffins are made by mixing coconut and almond flours with baking soda and pumpkin pie spice, creating a spiced base. Sugar, Greek yogurt, and eggs are beaten together before combining with the dry ingredients and shredded zucchini. The batter is portioned into muffin tins and baked until the tops are set and lightly browned.
The addition of zucchini keeps the muffins moist, while the combination of almond and coconut flours ensures a gluten-free texture that is tender yet not crumbly. The pumpkin pie spice gives a gentle aromatic spice note, making these muffins suitable for fall or anytime snacking.
This recipe yields 12 large muffins, making it practical for batch baking. They can be enjoyed plain or with a spread of butter or jam.
