Variations

The beauty of these muffins lies in their versatility. You can easily switch up the flavors and create exciting new treats each time you make them. Here are a few delicious variations to consider:

Try swapping out the Lily’s Chocolate Chips for another flavor of Lily’s chips such as Pumpkin Spice White Chocolate Chips for a cozy autumn twist or add Chocolate Salted Caramel Chips for a decadent treat.

For a burst of fresh, fruity flavor, replace the chocolate chips with blueberries or create banana nut muffins by adding a mashed-up banana and a handful of walnuts to your batter.

Once your muffins have cooled try drizzling them with melted dark chocolate, a touch of honey, or a drizzle of peanut butter.

The possibilities are endless! Don’t be afraid to experiment and discover your favorite flavor combinations.

FAQ

Why use almond flour vs all-purpose flour?

Almond flour is a great swap for all-purpose flour because it reduces carbs while adding fiber and healthy fats. It is also gluten-free which makes it a great option for people with gluten allergies or intolerances. Learn all about the benefits of almond flour for people with diabetes on the Mama-Betes Blog.

How long do these Almond Flour Chocolate Chip Muffins stay good?

Store your muffins in the fridge for up to one week or you can freeze them for up to 3 months in a ziplock bag or an airtight container.

Can I swap out the Truvia for another sweetener?

Yes, you can use whatever sweetener you would like, just make sure you are using the equivalent to ½ cup of granulated sugar. For the Truvia Spoonable Sweet Leaf Jar that we used in this recipe, 3.5 tablespoons is the amount needed.
