Simple Mini Almond Muffins

Some topping ideas! Medjool date cinnamon glaze, melted chocolate, and coconut flakes. 

I'm pretty sure everyone can agree that miniature food is 1000x cuter than anything normal sized. This resulted in me making these cute muffins that baked in FIVE minutes! I was surprised at how easy it was, and it's fun to play around with different toppings. Since we didn't have any all purpose flour, I used the Ninja blender to grind whole almonds into flour, which I then sifted. Here's the recipe from a cute blog, The Road to the Farm (I looked everywhere for the easiest one haha). 

Ingredients: 

1 1/4 cups almond flour

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon baking soda

3 eggs

2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup 

1/4 cup coconut oil, butter, (or oil of your choice) melted

Optional additions: vanilla or vanilla bean, 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, zest of one lime, lemon or orange. 

Directions: 

- Preheat oven to 350 degrees and grease pan.

-Separately mix the wet and dry ingredients, and then combine. Pour in oil/butter, and pour into mini muffin pan, donut pan, etc.! 

-Bake for 5 minutes, and keep a close eye on them.

-Let cool for 10 minutes before adding any toppings.

I brought these to a friend's house, and no one even noticed that they were gluten free :)
