It’s official. Chocolate and I have broken off our long term relationship. We’ve had a bumpy one. A really messy one you could say. Love-Hate. We break up then get back together in a very passionate way. Make up sex style. I’m disappointed in myself for just saying that. Not really. But for reals, it’s over this time. For at least 5 weeks. Jason bet me $3 that I couldn’t resist chocolate for 5 weeks, until after the CrossFit Open, so I must prove him wrong. He will be wrong.
Wanna know what I did this Saturday night? It was pretty epic so get ready. I ate dinner with my parents and uncle, we cooked fajitas, then talked about child birth because my uncle just had a kid, I mostly talked about how gross it is, then I went home. Don’t worry, this is where sh*t gets real. I dyed my hair (because my natural color is blonde so I have to dye it every 2 weeks) then put on a yeast face mask and watched youtube videos. Yep. I sat on my couch with my glossy hair slicked back, a face mask hardening my skin that smelled like rising bread, in a huge baggy sweatshirt and shorts with a hole in the butt cheek. What am I doing with my life.
Oh wait, I also made a dessert that failed. Wish you could understand the smells that filled my house that fine Saturday night. I’m pretty sure I was high. High school all over again. Kidding. Slightly.
I also cried during a muscle up wod. I had 20 to do and finished 19, failed 6x on the 20th one, tore my hands, then cried in disappointment. I also kicked the wall and said ‘f*ck you’ loudly. Real mature Juli, real mature. I hate you muscle ups. I.HATE.YOU.
What’s up with people wearing track suits? So weird.
Ryan Gosling is adorable. I wish he would take me on a date that included him falling in love with me. And smiling at me. A lot. It’s not that much to ask people.
Simple Blueberry Muffins
- Yield: 8-10 1x
Ingredients
- 1 cup almond butter
- 1 cup almond meal/almond flour
- 3 eggs, whisked
- 1/2 cup raw honey
- 1/3 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
- 1/3 cup coconut oil, melted
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
- pinch of cinnamon
- 1/2 cup fresh blueberries
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
- Mix all ingredients together in a bowl. If you’re good at baking, you’ll know to mix the dry then the wet ingredients then mix together, but I do all the ingredients together and it works out just fine.
- Place ingredients into 8-10 silicone muffin cups in a muffin tin. Or you can use muffin tin paper liners.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes. Just keep an eye on it, they will puff up and look adorable.
- Eat them and be happy. And merry.

Loving your recipes! I’m new to this whole paleo club, eating to treat my PCOS…but I am LOVING IT! I feel like a million bucks =)
I’m sure you could Laur!
I froze mine just fine 🙂
wow!
what a wonderful treat.
so…..after eighteen months of paleo and many weekly WOD’s, i found your awesome site.
my teenage kids were intrigued albeit they usually don’t eat anything that doesn’t have sugar. they decided to take on the role of chefs and made these muffins.
after all this time away from corn–blueberry–morning glory muffins and bagels, it was a gratifying experience to indulge in these muffins. so easy to make, unbelievably tasty.
they have now replaced my eggs or banana on almond butter breakfast.
thanks so much—and i’m now a true fan of your site.
come do a WOD in NYC when you’re in the big apple.
cheers

i was having a SERIOUS blueberry pancake craving when i came across these little jems…they are amazing! i haven’t been livin the paleo lifestyle for very long and am always skeptical with paleo baked goods but DAMN these definitely proved me wrong..thank you for sharing all of your goodies with us!
I wanted to do something with the little wild blackberries I picked with my daughter. So happy I found your recipe. I had to make a few substitutions based on what we had in the house – about 1/4 a cup of natural applesauce in place of 1/4 cup of almond butter, cause we ran out, blackberries instead of blueberries, and coconut nectar instead of honey. But they were awesome!
These are delicious – instead of shredded coconut, I used ground flaxseeds & they turned out great. So moist and yummy. I’ll be using chocolate chips instead of blueberries for my next batch! A hit with the BF too which is always a feat 🙂
Yummy! I added 1/2 tsp ginger and zest of one orange, oh and an accidental 1 tsp of baking powder instead of half. They came out perfect. Thanks!
