Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups almond flour
- 0.25 cup coconut flour
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon sea salt
- 2 tablespoons poppy seeds
- 3 large eggs
- 0.5 cup honey
- 0.25 cup coconut oil, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup almond milk
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners.
In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, baking soda, sea salt, and poppy seeds. Whisk together to blend.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, honey, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, almond milk, and lemon zest until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just mixed. Be careful not to overmix the batter.
Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy these muffins as a delicious breakfast or snack, and store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
