Grain-Free Cinnamon Muffins

Occasionally, I feel like baking. And since I have been trying to limit wheat and other grains in our diet, the baking around here has been sparse lately.  However, Elana - from Elanaspantry.com - has dozens of delicious baked goods recipes that are grain-free.

Grain-Free Cinnamon Muffins

Recently I tried her Cinnamon Bun Muffins recipe to perk up our breakfast routine. They were LUSCIOUS. I will be making these again. And again. Because they are made with lots of eggs and almond flour, these protein-packed muffins really fill you up and keep you going all morning.

I made a few adjusts based on the ingredients we keep on hand, this is what I did:

Substitute all Agave for equal parts of honey.
Substitute all grapeseed oil for equal parts melted butter.

Follow Elana's mixing and baking instructions.

I did not frost our muffins, but made a little sugar glaze out of powdered sugar and milk to pour over the tops.

Try them! I know you will love them!

  1. Yes! I can attest to those muffins being scrumptious. Bernadette made them once and I've been begging for them ever since. :-) We made the same substitutions but Bernadette followed her frosting instructions- so yummy!
