This is my new favorite recipe ever!!!
I feel like I say that a lot... The thing is, I have been on such a roll making new uh-mazing recipes that are healthy and totally crave-worthy these days. And pretty much life-changing! I have also been really into grab-n-go type things lately. These muffins are perfect for just that - grab one (or two or three), stuff your face, and jet out the door. Or eat calmly... that is preferred, but mornings can be rough sometimes! Enjoy!

I have recently gone vegetarian and am dragging my family with me- kicking and screaming! I love how easy (and fast!) your recipes are and that they include ingredients I normally have in the house. Thank you also for including the nutritional content which is especially important to my pre-diabetic husband.
This makes me so happy!!! 🙂 So glad you are enjoying my recipes! Good luck with bringing the fam along on your vegetarian journey 😀
Could I substitute oat flour for the coconut flour? My family loathes coconut and can sniff it out anywhere ????
Thanks!
I am not totally sure - coconut flour absorbs more moisture than other flours, so I would start with 2 tbsp of oat flour and see what it's like! If it is too wet, add more oat flour. I have a feeling it would work nicely, but am not positive 🙂
