Ingredients
- 1 1/4 cup almond flour or almond meal
- 3/4 cup tapioca flour
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt sea salt
- 2 egg
- ½ cup coconut milk full-fat, canned
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil melted*
- ¼ cup honey or pure maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract pure
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 apple grated (1 cup, medium
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and lightly oil a 12-hole muffin tray.
- Stir together the almond flour, tapioca flour, cinnamon, baking soda, and sea salt in a mixing bowl (dry ingredients).
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, coconut milk, coconut oil, honey, vanilla extract, and lemon juice until well combined. Stir in the shredded apple (wet ingredients).
- Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients and stir well until combined.
- Fill muffin holes with batter - the muffins won’t rise very much, so you can fill the holes almost to the top, leaving a small amount of space for muffin growth.
- Bake on the center rack of the preheated oven for 25 to 28 minutes.
- Remove from oven and allow muffins to cool at least 20 minutes before running a knife along the edges of the muffins to release them from the tray. Serve with butter and honey!
