Strawberry Paleo Muffins


 2016-03-28

One of my favorite things is waking up in the morning to fresh, warm, homemade muffins. Today I wanted to make some delicious spring-themed Paleo Strawberry Muffins! These guys are gluten-free, grain-free, low-carb, and low-sugar! And still tastes delicious! The sweetness of the fresh strawberries baked in gives each bite a sweet pleasant surprise. These muffins are perfect for those spring and summer mornings!

  • 2 cups almond flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda

  • 3 eggs
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil, melted
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup strawberries, chopped
  1. Preheat oven to 325F. Coat muffin tin with cooking spray or liners.
