PALEO CHOCOLATE MUFFINS {GLUTEN-FREE, GRAIN-FREE, DAIRY-FREE, NO REFINED SUGAR}

PALEO CHOCOLATE MUFFINS {GLUTEN-FREE, GRAIN-FREE, DAIRY-FREE, NO REFINED SUGAR}

I have been doing a lot of grain-free baking because my husband and I have been eating more Paleo to help with his migraines and autoimmune inflammation and my thyroid and adrenal issues. Paleo simply means gluten-free, grain-free, dairy-free and no refined sugar.

Paleo muffins are a favorite of my family. I have been baking a lot of Paleo muffins in a variety of flavor combinations because they are my husband’s go to for breakfast, snacks, and dessert.

Seriously, I am baking Paleo muffins every other day. My husband and my kids love them and eat them so quickly that they usually don’t last but one day. I love how easy they are to make and that they are a healthier version of your traditional gluten-free muffin. They are made with simple and healthy ingredients like almond flour, no sugar added applesauce and honey.

If you are new to grain-free baking, there are a few differences to traditional gluten-free baking with rice flour. Paleo grain-free baking is different than gluten-free baking, especially the texture. The texture of almond flour is much denser than baking with rice flour. Even though it’s different from your traditional gluten-free baking, it’s a tasty different.

These Paleo chocolate muffins are super easy to make. They are a one-bowl wonder that can be made in less than 40 minutes. They are moist and chocolatey. I don’t feel guilty about eating more than just one of these healthy Paleo chocolate muffins. I hope you enjoy them as much as my family and I do.
