Ingredients
  

  • ¾ cup flax meal Adds nutrition and a nutty flavor.
  • 1 cup almond flour Provides moisture and a tender crumb.
  • cup granulated sweetener Adjust sweetness to taste.
  • 4 medium eggs or 3 large eggs, room temperature - Binds ingredients and adds structure.
  • ½ cup Greek yogurt room temperature - Keeps muffins moist and adds protein.
  • ¼ cup butter melted, then cooled - Adds richness and flavor.
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder Helps muffins rise.
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon Adds warmth and spice.
  • 1/8 cup raspberries optional - A burst of freshness.

Equipment

  • Mixing bowls
  • Whisk
  • Muffin tin
  • Parchment liners
  • Cooling rack

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with parchment liners or lightly grease it to prevent sticking.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flax meal, almond flour, granulated sweetener, baking powder, and cinnamon until well combined.
  3. In another bowl, whisk the eggs, Greek yogurt, and melted butter until smooth. Make sure the butter has cooled down to avoid cooking the eggs.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Gently fold in the raspberries, if using.
  6. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about two-thirds full.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  8. Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.
