These muffins are amazing and they were suggested by an amazing friend of mine. She is truly inspiring!  She and her husband are examples of living a healthy lifestyle in every way – mentally, spiritually, and physically.  They are also great examples of how to create the life you want!  You can find Joy here.

This is a recipe that her entire family raved about!  And, she had to share it!  I’m so glad she did because we love it here also!

There is NO FLOUR and NO SUGAR in this recipe. It’s gluten-free.  They are sweetened entirely with fruit.  They taste fantastic!  They make the house smell fantastic and I think they’re better after they cool!

To get some Omega-3s I added two handfuls of flaxseed meal -
still tastes yummy!

So glad you liked them! I think we are going to be making these a lot!
