Grain Free Pumpkin Muffins

My kitchen has been an extremely busy operation. My mother’s celebration of life was held on Sunday at my home and I did lots of cooking and preparation. My mother would have wanted it this way. I still can’t talk about it too much, because it’s been a lot to process.

In the midst of everything I made these pumpkin snacking cakes that can double for grain free pumpkin muffins.

Easy Grain Free Pumpkin Muffins

Made mainly with almond flour and a bit of coconut flour, they are fluffy, with a perfect crumb. I topped these with chopped pecans prior to baking and they have just the right amount of pumpkin spice.

When it comes to pumpkin spice, you can make your own. If not, please buy a good brand. They are not created equally, and my favorite is the Trader Joe’s brand. I’ve compared it to much more expensive spice blends and it still wins for intense flavor. 

Cooking Tip: I always microwave a teaspoon of batter to taste. I almost always add a little more pumpkin spice blend.

I like these so much, they are going to go into my keto home bakery as a snacking cake.

    Angeka, I printed this recipe a couple weeks ago and made it today. My printout didn’t show almond milk or sour cream. And they;re not listed in the list of ingredients, only in the how-to, But regardless, I don’t think that would’ve made a difference in my c upcakes. They taste wonderful, but they’re a little gooey at the top. I tested them and they tested done, but besides goody, they’re also not as firm as I thought they’d be, Did I do something wrong??
