Almond Flour Chocolate Chip Muffins
These almond flour chocolate chip muffins are are my kids favorite! They make the perfect easy breakfast or kid friendly snack. This recipe was created with my oldest son Landon. I asked him if he wanted to make chocolate chip muffins and he excitedly told me "yes", but he wanted to create his own recipe! We went to work to create the perfect combination of ingredients for the most delicious muffins you've ever tasted. Made with almond flour and maple syrup, these muffins are completely grain free and low in sugar, but they taste like the most amazing comfort food! Filled with so much chocolaty goodness and so fluffy and moist! You will be so happy you made these! Hope you enjoy!

I am married to the most amazing man, Tommy. I am the mother of three beautiful children Landon, Finn, and Daisy. For years I have been helping friends, family and others navigate the life of gluten-free living. I grew up in a gluten-free house, my mom and both brothers were diagnosed with Celiac Disease when I was young. My mom did an amazing job making everything from scratch in a gluten free kitchen. When I had my first child Landon my world was changed. He was born at 24 weeks because I have a short cervix. The doctor told us that he had a slim chance of survival and that his life would be plagued with severe complications. He survived and has minimal complications due to his prematurity, but when Landon was two he started getting rashes all over his body and he would constantly be sick. My mom advised me to get Landon tested for Celiac Disease. This was the beginning of my true GF journey. Shortly after he was diagnosed, I decided to go off gluten as well. Although I do not have Celiac Disease, I have found that I feel 100% better eliminating gluten from my diet. Recently Finn was having some issues with his legs and knees hurting. The doctor told me to take Finn off gluten to see if it was causing the inflammation and pain. Sure enough once we changed his diet the symptoms went away. We have Celiac Disease and gluten intolerance on both sides of the family. My sister-in-law and niece were recently diagnosed and my Grandma recently took gluten out of her diet due to an autoimmune disease. We are in a fortunate position that both of our families understand the purpose of living a gluten-free lifestyle. I am on a mission to help people create amazing gluten-free recipes and to see that this diagnosis is not a curse, but can actually be delicious.
