Gluten-Free Zucchini Muffins
Ingredient Highlights
Almond flour is a gluten-free flour made by grinding almonds after the skin has been removed. It’s softer and finer than almond meal which is made by grinding almonds with the skin left on.
Just 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon daily can have positive effects on blood sugar levels, digestion, immunity, and more.
Coconut oil provides a boost of healthy fat that can energize and satiate. It is a strong antiviral, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial food.
Egg yolks are rich in nutrients including iron and vitamins A, D, E, and K, but it’s the white that provides the most protein. An average-size egg contains around 6-7 grams of protein with around 4 grams coming from the egg white.
Lakanto is a zero-glycemic, zero-calorie blend of monk fruit and erythritol that makes an excellent sugar substitute for low-carb recipes.

I made these muffins today and LOVED THEM! I used 2 c oat flour instead of the flours listed. I used applesauce instead of coconut oil and I added the shredded coconut and blueberries. DELICIOUS!
Yum! Your muffins sound amazing, Mickey. I'll have to try that out.
I have the vanilla Organixx Bone Broth Protein Powder and not the chocolate flavour. Would I use some cocoa powder or carob powder to make up for the flavour difference? And if so, how much cocoa powder or carob powder would you suggest?
