Healthy Wheat Almond Coconut Flaxseed Muffins! Made with a wheat and almond flour, coconut flour and ground flaxseed, these muffins have taste, texture and are filled with goodness! You don’t have to feel guilty about indulging in one of these muffins!
You guys, I never thought I’d be saying this but I will be live on The TODAY Show. . Â 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,
I was tempted to call these, “kinda sorta healthy muffins” or “almost healthy muffins” but hey, you know what, there’s no butter, no granulated sugar and I used a
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.”
So, I’m loading up on the chocolate chips!
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.
And a word on the vanilla bean paste:Â vanilla bean paste is “essentially a small jar of scraped-out vanilla pods, so you’re going to get that super fragrant, sweet, speckled end product with the convenience of a quick scoop of the teaspoon.” The vanilla taste is obviously intensified and wonderful.
