Ingredients
Scale
- 1/3 cup blanched almond flour
- 2 tablespoons tapioca flour or arrowroot flour
- 2 tablespoons maple sugar
- 2 tablespoons refined coconut oil, melted, or ghee
- pinch salt
- 3 large eggs, room temp
- 3/4 cup maple sugar or coconut sugar
- 1/3 cup refined coconut oil, melted, or ghee
- 1/4 cup almond milk
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 2 3/4 cups blanched almond flour
- 1/2 cup tapioca flour or arrowroot flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 1 cup strawberries, diced small
- 1 tablespoon tapioca flour for tossing berries
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F and line a 12 cup muffin pan with parchment liners. In a small bowl, mix the crumb topping ingredients to create small crumbs, then refrigerate while preparing the muffin batter.
- Whisk the wet ingredients together until smooth.
- Incorporate the dry ingredients until a thick batter forms.
- Let the batter rest for 5 minutes to thicken and settle.
- Pat the berries with a paper towel to remove excess moisture, then toss them in tapioca flour. Gently fold the berries into the batter.
- Fill the muffin liners to the brim and sprinkle with the crumb topping. Bake for 5 minutes at 400°F, then reduce the temperature to 350°F and bake for an additional 15-17 minutes. The muffins should be golden, and a toothpick should come out clean or with a few crumbs.
- Allow muffins to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack. They can be stored at room temperature for a day, then refrigerated in a sealed container for up to 4 more days.
Notes
For extra flavor, consider adding a teaspoon of cinnamon to the batter.
Substitute any non-dairy milk with almond milk for a rich taste.
Ensure the strawberries are thoroughly dried to prevent excess moisture in the muffins.
