VARIATIONS

Use whatever flour you have on hand.

Replace 2-4 tbsp of the flour with 2-4 tbsp ground flaxseed.

Add 1-2 tbsp of maple syrup or other sweetener for a bit more sweetness.

Add chocolate chips.

THE RUNDOWN

These dairy free, egg free, refined sugar free muffins are the perfect breakfast, lunch, or snack and they freeze well. I originally made them for my toddler to take to school, but then after sneaking a bite and then half of one and then a whole one I started making them for myself also.
