More Gluten Free For Me

I'll post my food log in a bit, but first here is a little about a recipe ANNA T of CrossFit Champion introduced me to at this weekends Oktoberfest Obliteration. I tried one of her Blueberry Muffins, gluten & dairy free. She used coconut flour instead of that nasty bleached yeasty stuff most bakers use. The results were pure deliciousness! She emailed me the blueberry & a banana muffin recipe.

Gluten Free and Dairy Free Cupcakes/Muffins

Serves 12 muffins

3 Tbsp butter, melted (or coconut oil)

3 eggs

1/3 cup sugar (I substituted Agave Nectar)

1/4 tsp salt

1/4 tsp vanilla

1/4 cup Coconut Flour

1/4 tsp baking powder

1 mashed banana

Chopped nuts (optional)

Mix all ingredients

Pour batter in a muffin tin with liners

Bake 15 minutes at 400 degrees

I added blue berries to 4 of them as a test. I loved it, but should have cooked them about 5 minutes longer. I think had the kido not had donuts first she would have enjoyed them as much as Scott and I did.

Nutritional Coaching

On a scale of 1 to 10 what would you rate your nutrition? How would you react if I asked to come into your home and rate your pantry myself? Nutritional wellness is one of my many passions. Let me know if your pantry needs help.
