You guys, I never thought I’d be saying this but I will be live on The TODAY Show. . TODAY! I should be on during the 9am EST hour and will be doing a cooking segment! If you don’t know about the TODAY Food Club,

You might notice that I loaded these muffins with chocolate chips. . it’s actually a blend of semi-sweet and bittersweet dark chocolate chips; this combination is brilliant because I think it balances the sweetness really well. I read recently that chocolate (dark chocolate) can help lower blood pressure, reduce the risk of heart disease, help control blood sugar and stress. And “chocolate is a good antioxidant, and has a good effect on inflammation.”

And I used this fabulous flour from White Lily.
This Wheat & Almond Flour Blend is made with Shepherd’s Grain® wheat to give delicious flavor to all your sweet and savory baked goods. Substitute this flour blend for traditional all-purpose flour in your recipes for a rich flavor that is moist in texture.
I’ve never seen a wheat and almond flour blend so I love this flour! I’m always adding in almond meal so this flour does the trick!
I also love that the wheat in each package of White Lily flour can be traced to the farmers who grew it. You can actually found out who grew the wheat! I absolutely loved the way these muffins tasted! They were nutty, coconut-y and chocolatey! This flour, mixed with the coconut flour and flaxseed meal and the coconut sugar and, of course the chocolate chips, these muffins were so good.
