These lemon muffins have a wonderful flavor and the blackberry swirl adds a sweet fruity complement that is so tasty!
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup coconut flour, sifted
- 1/2 cup coconut sugar, sifted
- 5 large eggs, whisked
- juice from 2 lemons
- zest of 1 lemon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- pinch of fine-grain sea salt
- 1 cup blackberries
- 2 Tablespoons raw honey
Process:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line a muffin tin with 9 paper liners.
- In a large bowl, mix together the coconut flour, coconut sugar, eggs, lemon juice, lemon zest, vanilla, baking soda, and salt until smooth. Pour the batter into the lined muffin tins.
- In a blender, puree the blackberries and honey until smooth. Use a spoon to add about 1 tablespoon of the blackberry puree on top of each muffin, then use a knife to swirl the blackberry through the batter.
