Yield: 12
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 23 minutes
Total Time: 28 minutes
Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 2 Tbsp coconut flour
- 1/4 cup almond butter
- 1/4 cup pumpkin spice honey
- 1/4 cup melted coconut oil
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp ginger
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 4 eggs at room temperature
- 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup dried cranberries
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line your muffin tin with parchment paper baking cups or grease your tin with coconut oil. Alternatively, use silicone reusable ones.
2. Combine almond butter, pumpkin puree, honey, melted coconut oil, eggs and vanilla in a large mixing bowl. Whisk until all ingredients are incorporated.
3. In a separate bowl, combine almond and coconut flours, ginger, cinnamon, baking soda and salt and give them a stir.
4. Add dry ingredients to wet ones and whisk well. Fold in dried cranberries with a spatula and fill the muffin cups about 3/4 of the way.
5. Bake on the top rack for 23-25 minutes. I find 23 to be the ideal time for metal muffin tins.
6. Let muffins cool completely on a wire rack or eat them while warm.
