Cinnamon Spice Muffins By: Jana N.

Recipe Story

My friend gave me this recipe when we started eating gluten-free and reduced-dairy foods earlier this year. My daughter has CF and is 12 years old. Switching to a gluten-free diet has helped significantly with her GI issues and discomfort. I am always on the lookout for easy and healthy gluten-free and no-dairy recipes and this is one that I use often. This is a recipe that can be easily changed such as using pumpkin instead of applesauce. Add in chocolate chips or a little cocoa powder and you have a chocolate muffin.

Ingredients

  • 1 c almond flour
  • 1/2 c applesauce
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/3 c maple syrup
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp nutmeg
  • 2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 c chopped nuts (optional)
  • Add All Ingredients

  1. Mix all the ingredients together in a bowl.

  2. Put into lined or greased muffin tins.

  3. Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes.

  4. Rest for 15 minutes before removing from pan.
