Cuisine: American
Serves: 12 muffins
Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1 cup diced peaches
- 1/2 cup shredded coconut
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a muffin tin by lining it with paper liners or greasing it with cooking spray to prevent the muffins from sticking.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of almond flour, 1 tsp of baking powder, and 1/2 tsp of salt. Mix well to ensure the baking powder is evenly distributed throughout the almond flour.
- In another bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs and 1/4 cup of honey until the mixture is smooth and well combined. Add 1/2 tsp of vanilla extract to the egg mixture and stir until incorporated.
- Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can affect the texture of the muffins.
- Next, add 1 cup of diced peaches and 1/2 cup of shredded coconut to the batter. Fold these ingredients in gently until they are evenly distributed throughout the muffin batter.
- Using a spoon or a cookie scoop, evenly divide the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each muffin cup about 2/3 full to allow for rising during baking.
- Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Once baked, remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for about 5 minutes. Then, transfer the muffins to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Enjoy your Peach Coconut Almond Flour Muffins warm or at room temperature. They can be stored in an airtight container for a few days or frozen for longer storage.
Tips
- Use fresh, ripe peaches for the most intense flavor. If using frozen peaches, make sure to drain them well to prevent excess moisture.
- For extra texture, lightly toast the shredded coconut before adding it to the batter to enhance its nutty flavor.
- Don't overmix the batter – mix just until ingredients are combined to keep the muffins light and fluffy.
- Check the muffins a few minutes before the recommended baking time, as oven temperatures can vary.
- For a protein boost, consider adding a scoop of almond or vanilla protein powder to the dry ingredients.
- Want to make these muffins even more special? Sprinkle some extra shredded coconut or sliced almonds on top before baking for a beautiful, crunchy finish.
