Ingredients
- 🌰 Almond flour – 2 cups
- 🥥 Coconut flour – 1/2 cup
- 🥄 Baking powder – 2 teaspoons
- 🌿 Ground cinnamon – 2 teaspoons
- 🍁 Maple syrup – 1/3 cup
- 🥛 Almond milk – 1/2 cup (or any dairy-free milk)
- 🥥 Coconut oil – 1/4 cup, melted
- 🥚 Eggs – 3 large
- 🍦 Vanilla extract – 1 teaspoon
- 🍬 Coconut sugar – 1/4 cup (for the cinnamon swirl)
- 🌰 Additional cinnamon – 1 teaspoon (for the cinnamon swirl)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and coconut sugar. Whisk until well blended.
- In another bowl, whisk together maple syrup, almond milk, melted coconut oil, eggs, and vanilla extract. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
- In a small bowl, mix additional cinnamon with remaining coconut sugar to create the cinnamon swirl.
- Spoon about 1 tablespoon of muffin batter into each muffin cup, sprinkle with cinnamon swirl mixture, add another tablespoon of batter, and top with more cinnamon mixture.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, checking for doneness with a toothpick.
- Let the muffins cool in the tin for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
Notes
- Measure your flours accurately for best results.
- Don’t overmix the batter; a few lumps are fine.
- Use room temperature ingredients for a smoother batter.
- Check for doneness a couple of minutes before the timer goes off.
- Let muffins cool before removing from the tin.
- Experiment with add-ins like nuts or chocolate chips.
- Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days or freeze for longer storage.
