I just made these this morning. They were so quick and easy to make!
I ended up with 8 muffins. Three for me and three for my husband. They were a quick and tasty breakfast! My husband says that they are really good with butter. I will be making many more. Thank you for the high protein, low carb, delicious muffins! I will be sharing the recipe with my children who are having issues with gluten. I did add a 1/4 tsp. nutmeg and a little vanilla, about 1/2 tsp. Other than that, they are just plain yummyness!

Really yummy “quaranmuffins”. I added nutmeg to mine as well. So good! Thank you!

In reply to David. Yes. There's no way this recipe would work with coconut flour. I used coconut flour in many recipes in my paleo baking book. It sucks up liquid like a sponge. The recipe, as written, works great. It does not work at all, as you found out, with coconut flour.

In reply to Elizabeth. I’ll double down on that: my son has a nut allergy so I tried these with coconut flour (given it’s high fat content) and basically I had crumbs with apples. There was nothing approximating batter. It was so dry that, frankly, I’m skeptical about the recipe overall. But given the other positive reviews, I’ll assume that almond flour has a ton of moisture as well as fat.

My batter had come out thicker than what was pictured so I was nervous, but it was delicious! The only change I made was that considering I do not own a muffin pan I used a small cast iron skillet and poured all the batter into that. I also lowered the temperature to 325F and baked it for approximately 40 minutes. Delicious! I ate a quarter of the “pie”!

In reply to Sandra. This recipe won't work with a nut-free flour, sorry. The recipe needs the fat found in the almonds. (Tiger nut might work but I'm not fully confident.)

I’ve recently gone GF and wanted to also stay low carb and away from highly processed. I’m also trying out things my kids would like… I know, I’m so high maintenance! 🙂 These are delicious and SO easy, I made them while my 2 year old ate breakfast. Thanks!!!

These sound so delicious, but I’m allergic to almonds… can you recommend a substitute flour that would be equally delicious? Cassava, Tiger Nut? Other?

My husband is hard to please when it comes to gluten free recipes, but he loved these. I used mini muffin pans for these, left the peel on the organic apple, and cooked for about 15 minutes. Thank you for sharing.
