Servings: 18
Preparation Time: 15 minutes
- 7 eggs
- 1/2 cup coconut milk*
- 1/2 cup maple syrup
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 3/4 cup coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup nuts (I used walnuts and almonds)
- 10 dates
- 1 tablespoon date sugar
- 1 tablespoon finely shredded, unsweetened coconut
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
Beat your eggs, Then whip in remaining wet ingredients. Set aside.
In another bowl mix the coconut flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. Then add the dry to the wet and mix really well.
Now in your food processor add remaining ingredients. Process until it looks like a crumb mixture, don’t go too long or you’ll end up with a nut butter!
Now, on a table you should have your batter, your toppings, and some pure fruit blackberry jam. You will also need muffin pans and liners.
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
Now, in each liner (which you can grease if you want, the batter is sticky) put one tablespoon of batter. Then in the middle put a teaspoon of blackberries, then another tablespoon of batter on top, and finally sprinkle the nut topping on.
Bake for 25 minutes and then let them cool.
While they are cooling melt some dairy-free dark chocolate and then drizzle over your muffins with a spoon.
And then sprinkle on some unsweetened coconut flakes!
And then….ENJOY!!!
