Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Lightly grease a 6-cup muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray or line it with silicone baking cups.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the drained tuna, eggs, shredded cheddar cheese, almond flour, chopped green onions, garlic powder, dried parsley, salt, and black pepper.
Mix everything together thoroughly until a uniform mixture forms.
Spoon the mixture evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the muffins are set and lightly golden on top.
Allow the tuna muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before removing them.
Serve warm or store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave for 20-30 seconds before serving.
