Paleo Blueberry Muffins
Muffins are one of my favorite breakfast pastry items. These are great because they are Paleo and gluten-free.

Ingredients
- 1 C almond flour
- 3/4 C cassava flour
- 1/4 C coconut flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 3/4 tsp sea salt
- 1/2 C palm shortening or grass-fed butter
- 1 C coconut sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 C unsweetened almond milk
- 2 1/4 C fresh blueberries
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Line the muffins tins with paper liners.
- In a small bowl whisk the almond flour, cassava flour, coconut flour, baking powder, and salt.
- In a medium bowl using a hand mixer or the bowl of a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, cream the palm shortening or butter and the coconut sugar. This takes about 2-3 minutes. Beat in the eggs one at a time, scraping the sides of the bowl periodically. Mix in the vanilla extract.
- Gradually add in the flour mixture, alternating with the almond milk until all ingredients are fully combined. Gently fold in the blueberries, making sure you don’t overmix.
- Use a spring-loaded ice cream scoop and disperse the batter into the muffin liners. You will want your liners almost full.
- Place in the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes. The tops should be golden brown and crusty. If you place a toothpick in the middle of a muffin, it should come out clean.
