Grain-Free Strawberry Muffins

January 19, 2015

Blueberry muffins are pretty popular, but I’m pretty sure I’ve never actually seen a strawberry muffin before. I have always preferred strawberries to blueberries, so I thought why not make strawberry muffins instead of the traditional blueberry muffins? I love to have muffins for breakfast because they’re grab and go. The thought of having to cook breakfast in the morning is just daunting to me. I really don’t like to do anything until after I’ve had my coffee, and that…

Gingerbread muffins! Seasonal flavors make me excited to eat and I am big fan of muffins. Youfreshnaturals coco-nut butters are so delicious, I had to make their seasonal Dark Chocolate Gingerbread be a part of my recipe. Make these muffins and enjoy the holiday season even more (if that’s possible)! These muffins are not very sweet, so if you like them sweeter add some more maple syrup. Easy- ***** Fast- **** Spicy- no Ingredients: 1 cup Dark Chocolate…

I love the holiday season! Christmas is my favorite holiday. I love indulging in all the seasonal flavored treats like gingerbread and eggnog. In this recipe, I’ve combined my two favorites: gingerbread and eggnog together to make brownies. I always used to go to Starbucks and get gingerbread lattes, so I’m definitely going to create a healthier version of that too. I’m almost done with my Christmas shopping as well. I can’t wait to get a tree, wrap all the…

Who doesn’t like brownies? Everyone does. Even people who claim to not like brownies will still eat them (I used to be one of those people). I wanted to get in another pumpkin recipe before it changes to gingerbread & eggnog season, so I thought to combine pumpkin and brownies. If you look around the stores during fall, you can see pumpkin flavor in just about everything, but most of those items are made artificially. This pumpkin spice brownies recipe…

Before I became paleo I was obsessed with Pumpkin Lattes from Dunkin Donuts & Pumpkin Spice Lattes from Starbucks. I always looked forward to fall and enjoying the specialty coffees. Now that I know those lattes are full of junk, I make my own. I personally don’t put the maple syrup in because I enjoy it fine without the sweetener. This coffee is my favorite part of the morning! Ingredients: 2 cups brewed black organic coffee 2 scoops Vital Proteins…

I am a HUGE fan of pumpkin season. People make fun of me for it but I don’t care. I’m all about pumpkin everything. I wanted to make a pumpkin muffin recipe that’s a bit different than the usual, so I made these with hazelnut flour. I also used Youfreshnaturals Caramel Pumpkin Spice Coco-Nut Butter and let me say these came out even better than I was expecting. Absolutely delicious. I like to eat two of these for breakfast…

This recipe is great for a quick on the go breakfast in the morning. Make them the night before and then just grab and go in the morning. This is an easy recipe and is fairly quick. The muffins bake is 15-20 minutes, so you can wash the dishes while they’re baking and then they’ll be done shortly after that. These muffins taste great and are filling. Some paleo people don’t consider treats and baked goods as strict paleo.…
