Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Almond flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 3 large Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 quarter cup Coconut oil, melted
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened applesauce
- 1 cup Fresh cranberries
- 1 teaspoon Orange zest
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease with a little coconut oil.
In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt. Stir to combine.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, vanilla extract, melted coconut oil, and unsweetened applesauce until well blended.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, and stir until just combined.
Gently fold in the fresh cranberries and orange zest into the batter.
Evenly divide the batter among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
