Healthy Chocolate Muffins!

January 8, 2014 · 39 Comments

Healthy Chocolate Muffins GF/DF/NF

 

My gorgeous daughter has done it again.

She has a love affair with chocolate and created these babies, inspired by a recipe at Elana’s pantry.

They are sooooo good! Lovely and moist with lots of chocolatey flavour.

You can ice them with whatever you like, but they really don’t need it.

 

DID YOU KNOW? coconut flour has the highest amount of dietary fibre than any other flour!

 

Healthy Chocolate Muffins

 

Vital Stats: grain free, gluten free, nut free, naturally sweetened

 

So this is what you need:

1/2 cup coconut flour

1/2 cup organic cacao powder

1/2 teaspoon good quality salt

1 teaspoon bicarb soda

6 organic eggs

1/2 cup macadamia or coconut oil (should not be solid)

1 cup honey or sweetener of your choice

 

So this is how you do it:

Preheat oven to 190° celsius.

Line a 12 cup muffin tray with baking papers. (I like using the If You Care range – there are no toxins!)

Put the dry ingredients in the thermomix and whizz on speed 5 for 10 seconds.

Add the wet ingredients and whizz on speed 4 for 10 seconds until just combined.

Chuck into the muffin papers and cook in the oven for about 25 minutes or until cooked through.

Don’t let the mixture sit too long, the coconut flour doesn’t like it and you will end up with dry, tough muffins.

 

Non thermomix instructions:  Mix dry ingredients in one bowl and wet ingredients in the other. Combine gently.

I hope you enjoy them as much as we do! Let me know how you go with them.
