Description

Deliciously moist and flavorful muffins with a blend of tart cranberries, sweet orange, and crunchy pecans. Perfect for breakfast or a wholesome snack!


Ingredients

  • 2 1/3 cups almond flour
  • 1/3 cup coconut flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 tablespoon orange zest
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup orange juice
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil, melted
  • 1 cup fresh cranberries
  • 1/2 cup pecans, chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tray with paper liners.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the eggs, vanilla extract, melted coconut oil, honey, orange juice, and orange zest. Sprinkle the baking soda on top of the orange juice to let it foam.
  3. Add the almond flour and coconut flour to the mixture and stir on low speed until just combined, taking care not to overmix.
  4. Using a spoon, gently fold in the cranberries and chopped pecans until evenly distributed.
  5. Fill each muffin cup to the top with batter and gently press down to ensure they are firmly filled. Top each muffin with a few extra cranberries if desired for a decorative touch.
  6. Bake for about 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  7. Allow the muffins to cool completely in the tray for at least 20 minutes before removing them.

Notes

  • Let the muffins fully cool in the tray before removing them to prevent crumbling.
  • Top with extra cranberries for a festive look.
  • Can be stored in an airtight container for 2-3 days.
