Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Almond flour
- 0.25 cup Tapioca flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 2 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1.5 cups Carrots, finely grated
- 0.5 cup Pitted dates, finely chopped
- 3 Eggs
- 0.25 cup Maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup Coconut oil, melted and cooled
- 0.25 cup Unsweetened almond milk
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with 12 paper liners or grease the tin with nonstick spray.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, tapioca flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and salt until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs until light and frothy. Add the maple syrup, vanilla extract, melted coconut oil, and almond milk. Mix well until fully incorporated.
Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the finely grated carrots and chopped dates until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Using a spoon or ice cream scoop, divide the batter evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each well about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 22-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy! Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for up to a week.
