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 oven to 400°F and line a 12 cup muffin pan with parchment liners.
- In a small bowl, combine the crumb topping ingredients to form small crumbs, then refrigerate while preparing the muffin batter.
- Whisk wet ingredients until smooth.
- Stir in dry ingredients until a thick batter forms.
- Let the batter sit for 5 minutes to thicken and settle.
- Pat the berries with a paper towel to remove excess water, then toss them in tapioca. Fold gently into the batter.
- Fill the muffin liners to the top, then sprinkle with the crumb topping.
- Bake for 5 minutes in the preheated oven (400°F). Lower temperature to 350°F and continue to bake for 15-17 minutes until golden; a toothpick inserted near the center should come out clean or with a few crumbs.
- Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then remove and continue to cool on a wire rack. Store at room temperature covered for the first day, then refrigerate in a sealed container for up to 4 more days.
Notes
For best results, use room temperature eggs.
Make sure the strawberries are well drained to avoid a soggy batter.
These muffins can be frozen for up to a month for a quick treat.
Adjust the sweetness to your liking by modifying the sugar amounts.
