Just made these into ‘pancakes’, with a little less honey, used almond meal instead of coconut flour, and topped with cream cheese (rather than the real Vermont Maple Syrup I was actually considering :D They’re aMAzing. Pumpkin Pie for brunch!
Woohoo. So glad you enjoyed
Really tasty and easy to make. I didn’t change the recipe at all, it’s awesome as is.
Woohoo thank you Natalie
I just made these for my boys and they gobbled them down. Very, very yummy!
Woohoo thank you
This was my first experience baking with coconut flour & I love its light, fluffy texture. These muffins are definitely keepers and I’ll be making them again. The only changes I made to the recipe were to add a 1/2 tsp. sea salt and some dried cranberries. Yum! Thanks for sharing.
Eileen,
That is so great to hear. Coconut flour can be tricky but the more you use it the better. I hope you enjoy many more of my recipes :)
Could you put a link to just print your recipes – when I try to print them I get everything, including the ads and every comment – so I am sometimes printing 5 pages for just the one recipe. Love your recipes though!
Ann I am working on editing all the posts to look like my new ones. On the new ones the print feature only prints the recipe and photo. It will be done soon
Ann. Also on that floating sidebar. Click on more and find print friendly. Tht will allow you to only print what you need
Do u think these would work without the honey (for the 21 DSD)? Or would they end up to dry?
I would honestly wait they would be too dry for me
Thank you for this recipe! My 9 year old daughter is severely autistic and has difficulty with new foods. She has never been able to tolerate baked goods and craves salty potato chips. We are slowly and gently trying to broaden her food choices and make her paleo like her dad and I. I just made these muffins and she sat down and ate half of one while working on her puzzles. No crying, no complaining, no gagging! I don’t even have the words to explain how big of a deal this is for us. Thank you for your website, I’ve loved everything I’ve tried!
Thank you so much Jennifer. You just made me tear up. That is so awesome
I just bought a bunch of almond flour, is it ok to replace the coconut flour with that?
No they are completely different. You can not sub them out
These are GREAT! I made them today and even my 3 yr old likes them! I will be making lots of your recipes in the near future… :)
Woohoo, I love when they are kid approved. I can’t wait to hear when you like more :)
I made these for breakfast this morning. I expect we’ll be making these often. If I can whip them up before work, you know they’re easy, and so, so tasty! Thanks for sharing!
Woohoo you are so welcome. Enjoy
I just made these today, and I have to say, I am impressed. This is the first baked good I have ever made that contains coconut flour that doesn’t taste awful! In fact, they are quite yummy! I added chocolate chips to the batter since I was making them for my kids’ lunch boxes. They are super!
Oh I make them that way too. I am so glad you loved them and they didnt taste like crap :)
These were sooooo gooood!
So glad you enjoyed them Leea, this is one of my favorite recipes

Your welcome Torrey, you won't ever find one in the store without one of those two because those are used as preservatives. When you mix it yourself you have to use it immediately
Oh, and a million thanks for the baking powder recipe!
I've been reading all the labels of the ones that are commercially available and they ALL contain either cornstarch or potato starch! :'(
Happy Halloween to you too Torrey, so glad you like them
These are so yummy! I didn't have walnuts, so I topped them with pecans. Also, I used dark maple syrup instead of honey. I made them for a second time over the weekend–so easy and dee-lish!
Happy Halloween! :)
So glad you liked them Christie
These were so good and moist it was like eating pumpkin pie!!! I used almond milk instead of the coconut oil and egg whites..but they are still tasty lol
Looks good!
I make something similar just add chopped apple to it
So glad you enjoyed Chrissy :)
I added a little bit of maple syrup to the batter and they turned out FANTASTIC!! So moist & delicious! :)
All fixed Karissa, thank you its baking powder
In the ingredient list it says baking powder but in the directions it says to add the baking soda. Which one is correct?
You are most welcome JaceyH, so glad you enjoyed :)
These were so tasty! Light fluffy texture on the inside and a nice crunchy topping.
Thanks for the recipe!
