1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 large eggs
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 medium apple, peeled and diced
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease the muffin cups.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, honey, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir to combine.
- Gently fold in the diced apple and chopped walnuts.
- Scoop the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
- Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
- Let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Ensure the apple is peeled and diced into small, even pieces for even baking.
- You can substitute walnuts with pecans or leave them out if preferred.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
