My go-to brunch menu is hot coffee, chopped fruit, and freshly-baked muffins.
Lately, I’ve been loving throwing berries in my muffin batter—adding a sweet and tart flavor to my baking.
These almond based muffins have been my summer go-to. They are fluffy, easy to make, and the perfect sweet breakfast to share or bring on-the-go.
Break out the muffin tins my friends, we are making Summertime Muffins!
These summertime muffins are made gluten free with a base of earthy almond flour and soft arrowroot powder. If you’ve ever struggled with gf baking, this simple combo is for you—with sticky honey and moist coconut oil, these muffins stay soft, fresh, and hold up perfectly.
I love making a big batch of these raspberry and orange muffins for a brunch with friends, and enjoying leftovers throughout the week ahead.
I hope these Summertime Muffins become your go-to this time of year! They are:
Super Fluffy
Naturally Sweetened
Perfectly Soft
Simple to make
& SO Delicious
If you love these healthy summertime muffins, you will also enjoy my avocado matcha muffins, banana bread mug muffin, blackberry breakfast cookies, gluten free zucchini bread muffins, or my fig + blueberry breakfast cookies.
