Mixed Berry Muffins (GF)

By Kelly · 37 Comments


These grain-free muffins are so moist and delicious, I’ve often added a dollop of whipped cream to the top and called them dessert! For a special way to say “I Love U!” check out the picture below.


These adorable Strawberry Heart Muffins are a sweet way to show you care. Simply dice some fresh strawberries for placing in the center of the muffin, then top each muffin (prior to baking) with a fresh slice of strawberry cut in the shape of a heart as shown.

Mixed Berry Muffins (GF)

Yield: 10

Mixed Berry Muffins (GF)

Ingredients

  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/3 cup plain whole milk yogurt (or plain whole milk kefir)
  • 1/4 cup pure maple syrup (see *note below)
  • 1 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 2 1/2 cups blanched almond flour
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • **Fresh strawberries and blueberries (fresh raspberries are also a delicious option!)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 315 degrees. Place 10 paper liners in a 12-cup muffin tin; set aside. In a small bowl, add about 4-5 diced fresh strawberries and about a handful of whole fresh blueberries; set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, yogurt, maple syrup and vanilla until well blended. Using a spoon, stir in the almond flour, salt and baking soda until well incorporated.
  3. Add a spoonful of the muffin batter to each of the lined muffin cups making sure to fill no more than 1/3 of the muffin liner. Using both hands, lift the muffin tin evenly tap the bottom on the counter to evenly distribute the batter in the bottom of the muffin cups.
  4. Then, add a small amount of berries to each muffin cup. Next, place another spoonful of batter on top of the berries, making sure to evenly distribute the remaining batter among all the muffin cups. Finally, add a bit more fruit to the top of each muffin.
  5. Bake for approximately 26-30 minutes, until edges begin to turn a golden brown and a toothpick placed in the center comes out clean. Allow to cool in the pan for at least 5-10 minutes, then serve. Enjoy!

Notes

*Do not substitute the maple syrup with honey or your muffins will be dry and have over-browned bottoms. **Fresh fruit works best with this recipe, as frozen fruit tends to create an excess of moisture which can make for soggy muffins.

Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 cups blanched almond flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt

Almond Flour Biscuits (GF, DF)

By Kelly · 99 Comments

Southern Style Almond Flour Biscuits ... these will take you back to your childhood! They are as good and grandma's biscuits.
Growing up in the South, I have fond memories of warm biscuits gracing our table not only at breakfast time, but often at dinnertime as well. My desire for this simplest of comfort foods led to the birth of this almond flour biscuit recipe that has become one of the most popular recipes here on the blog.

Top them with a pat of butter and a drizzle of sweet honey, or your favorite homemade jam for an extra special treat! Or use them to create a scrumptious and Easy Chicken Pot Pie. Leftover biscuits are also wonderful for making quick-n-easy Breakfast Sandwiches.

Southern Style Almond Flour Biscuits ... these will take you back to your childhood! They are as good and grandma's biscuits.This delightful recipe is just one of more than 100 irresistible grain-free, dairy-free recipes in my new cookbook – Everyday Grain-Free Baking!

Almond Flour Biscuits

Yield: 8 biscuits

Almond Flour Biscuits

Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 cups blanched almond flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt
  • 3 tbsp butter, melted (or ghee, or melted coconut oil)
  • 1 tbsp pure honey (I prefer sage honey due to its mild flavor)
  • 2 tbsp pure coconut milk (room temperature is best)
  • 2 large eggs (room temperature is best)
  • 1/4 tsp apple cider vinegar

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a medium bowl, combine almond flour, baking soda and salt.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together melted butter (or coconut oil) and honey, until smooth. Add the coconut milk, eggs and vinegar, whisking together until well combined. Using a spoon, stir the wet mixture into the dry mixture until thoroughly combined.
  3. For quick and easy drop biscuits: Drop biscuit dough by large spoonfuls onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, placing the biscuits approximately two-inches apart.
  4. For classic-style rolled-looking biscuits: Scoop a large spoonful of batter into your hands and roll into a ball about the size of an apricot. Then place the dough balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet and gently flatten using the palm of your hand.
  5. Bake about 15 minutes, until golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted in middle comes out clean. Serve warm with butter, raw honey or homemade jam.

Notes

For those who are not dairy-free, buttermilk or whole milk can be used in place of the coconut milk.

Lemon Poppy Mini-Muffins (GF)

By Kelly · 2 Comments


Coconut flour is a nutritious gluten-free flour that’s both fiber rich and a good source of protein. It produces wonderfully light baked goods with a delicate sweet flavor. When using coconut flour, it’s important to add additional eggs and increase the liquid content of your recipes. This recipe is the perfect introduction to coconut flour…these delicious little muffins are guaranteed to disappear in an instant…Enjoy!

Time-Saving Tip:  Whenever a recipe calls for lemon juice or lemon zest, here’s a real time- and money-saving tip … If the recipe calls for lemon juice, first zest the lemon and place the lemon zest in a freezer-safe container and freeze for future recipes. If a recipe calls for lemon zest, after zesting the lemon, squeeze the lemon to extract the juice and place the lemon juice in a freezer-safe container for future recipes. This eliminates waste and helps to reduce the prep time for future meals.
