These muffins taste like airy heaven bread.
Best way to describe it. Sorryfornotbeingsorry.
I did something wrong. I must have. I’m a firm believer in karma and my karma must be teetering on the bad side. My car got broken into. Someone doesn’t like me. Because they somehow pulled back my window, got into my car, but proceeded on to not steal anything. There was a $20 bill literally sitting in the cupholder and they didn’t take it. Wtf. They did take my registration sticker though. That was kind of them. It’s just so frustrating because it’s not even worth getting mad about. I can’t do anything about it. These buttheads still broke into my car. And my window is still wide open for every creature to venture in to. I’m extra excited to see what kind of bugs have breaded in my car by tomorrow.
What did I do karma? What did I do to piss you off? Is it because I drank alcoholic beverages this weekend? Is that why you’re mad at me? I’m a sad little teddy bear right now.
Well that was a downer moment.
Let’s talk about something better. Like food! Laura and I were in a slight coma after our workout on Friday night and thought, for safety reasons, we should just to buy food somewhere. Pretty much we were just too lazy to cook our own sh*t. So we went to a restaurant called Jake’s and got some giganto burgers and sweet potato tots. BEFORE YOU START FREAKING OUT, these sweet potato tots definitely aren’t paleo. Addictive, yes. Paleo, no. Not sure what they are made of. Sketch stuff, I’m sure. So we chowed down on them, I pretty much cleaned my plate and then ventured on home, uncomfortably full. After watching (Laura cried through most of it) The Vow and letting our stomachs settle, we decided to try to make paleo cinnamon rolls. It failed. Don’t worry though, I will succeed. The day will come. But that’s really not what’s important. The key point of this story was the we turned on the oven in a house that was already 84 degrees, with no air conditioning. We were melting. Meaning sweating. Maybe that’s why my cinnamon rolls failed. I sweated into them. Excess liquid.

Do you think I could substitute applesauce for apples?
it MIGHT work, but probably wouldn’t be the same texture. you woul have to make sure they didn’t get too “wet”
thanks Julie- I doubled the recipe and added about a cup of applesauce instead of the apples. They are fantastic! I made them in mini muffin paper cups and only baked for 20 minutes. I will give them as healthy gifts to coworkers. Bravo on this recipe!
What kind of apple do you generally use for this recipe?
any kind that’s on sale. i like honeycrisp the most though
Hi Juli! Quick question..when you say 1/4 cup coconut oil, is that before or after its melted? They look/sound delish! Thanks!
My kids go crazy for these muffins! Just wanted to let you know that I will be sharing a modified version of this recipe on my blog today. I will, of course, be linking back here to give you full credit. Thank you for this awesome recipe!
They aren’t that sweet, but i made a glaze to put on top of them & they came out great! How can I make them sweeter though?
add more honey 🙂
Hey! I’m about to make these but I don’t have everything the recipe calls for – no almond flour. I have other wheat free flours though – anything I can substitute? I also don’t have enough coconut oil. If it’s not worth it to make these without the same exact ingredients I’ll wait. Thanks!
i would just wait until you get the needed ingredients
My husband, 19 month old son, and myself have been doing the Whole30. My husband loves it so much he wanted to make it a Whole60 and I only agreed if I could add in coconut flour (which is not Whole30 approved) so I could have some muffins for breakfast every once in awhile. I left the honey out (not Whole30 approved either) and I made my own almond meal and added the biggest apple I could find. These are delicious and exactly what I needed. The fruit was the perfect amount of sweetness. Thank you! I will definitely be making these again.
Wow these are the BEST paleo muffins I have made yet! I’m going to monkey with them and see how they do with a pineapple/carrot combo, blueberry… Oh the possibilities!
Yum!
I LOVED these! The second time I made them I didn’t have an apple on hand. (I know, who eats Paleo and doesn’t have one on hand) So I used a banana and added a little nutmeg and cloves. UM HELLO!! Holy sh*t balls good. Love your blog and all your recipes!
