Grain Free Chocolate Pumpkin Muffins
I wanted to make a muffin that uses orange and black ingredients to remind me of Halloween. These are much healthier than candy even though they have a little maple syrup. This treat has antioxidants from the chocolate and pumpkin. Coconut oil is a miracle fat preferentially burned by the body as fuel and also melts belly fat.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup coconut oil
6 Organic Soy-free Eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup pumpkin puree or fresh baked pumpkin
1/2 cup Organic Maple Syrup or honey
6 oz Unsweetened Dark Chocolate (99% Cacao)
1/2 tsp Real Salt
1/2 cup coconut flour
1/4 tsp baking soda
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350. Mix the eggs and other wet ingredients in one bowl. Mix the dry ingredients together in another bowl. Make a double boiler (put a glass bowl over a pot of simmering water) and melt the chocolate and coconut oil together. Then let the chocolate cool off for 5 minutes. Add the chocolate, coconut oil, and wet ingredients then blend together with a whisk. Combine the wet and dry mixture together until well blended. Get your muffin tins and place some Beyond Gourmet Unbleached Baking Cups
