For these muffins, the base flour comes from almonds, so they are not only gluten free, they also have healthy fats, protein, and fibre to help keep you satiated (and balance blood sugar). Then there’s sweet potatoes and eggs, which are sources of vitamin A for bone, eye, skin, reproductive, and immune health. But the best part is they are light, moist, and fluffy, so they taste as healthy as they are.
