Nut Butter Muffins – grain free

I made these for breakfast this morning – they are great if you are gluten free, low carb, or trying to increase your intake of healthy fats.  They’re very filling and just a couple will keep you satiated for hours. They have no added sweetener, so the flavor is mild and subtle.

Nut Butter Muffins

• 1 c. nut butter (I used organic cashew butter)
• 1 c. sliced almonds (preferably soaked and dried)
• 1 c. coconut milk
• 2 c. unsweetened coconut
• 3 eggs

Blend the nut butter and coconut milk, add in the eggs.  Stir in sliced almonds and unsweetened coconut.  When thoroughly mixed, spoon into well greased muffin tins.  Bake at 400 degrees for 15 min.  Depending on the size you make your muffins, this yields between 1 – 2 dozen.

Our muffin pans make the standard size muffins (not small), and two of these left the adult eaters feeling very satiated.
