Super easy, gluten free, no refined sugar, high protein muffin recipe!

I wanted to make a versitile muffin recipe- basically a base I could use for whatever flavour muffin I choose to put together on a given day. I have succeded! I have tried this with these 2 variations below and they came out awesome. Its a plain base that really any flavour combo could be used. I did a basic blueberry muffin, and a cinnamon raisin pecan with a coconut milk caramel swirl.  Super easy, gluten free, no refined sugar and high protein, what more could you ask for!!

Here is the muffin base recipe:

1.5 Cups Almond Flour
1\4 Cup Coconut Flour
1 Tsp Baking soda
Pinch himalayan salt
2 Tbs Golden Flax
1 Tbs Organic Hemp Hearts
1 Tbs Organic Chia seeds (Optional)
3 Organic eggs
1\4 Cup agave, maple syrup, or honey
1 Tbs grapeseed oil
1\2 Cup organic unsweetened applesauce
1\4 Cup Almond or coconut milk


Method:

Preheat oven to 350. Mix together all dry ingredients in a medium bowl, in a separate bowl, whisk the eggs and then add in all wet ingredients, blend well and add into the dry ingredients. Mix well (add in  any extras, spices, fruit, chocolate chips etc....) scoop into muffin tins, bake for 20-25 mins- check with a toothpick after 20 mins, enjoy!



These are the Blueberry Muffins (Just add a handful of fresh or frozen organic blueberries)



 and these are the cinnamon raisin pecan ones (I added a hefty teaspoon of organic cinnamon, a handful of chopped organic pecans and organic raisins)



I had some Coconut milk caramel in  the fridge (coconut milk, coconut palm sugar and vanilla cooked on low until it becomes caramel) and I topped the muffins with a little swirl of the caramel, chopped pecans and a little more cinnamon sprinkle. The hubbs really dug these ones!
