Ingredients

  • 6 eggs
  • Zest of 2 lemons
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • ½ cup coconut oil softened at room temperature
  • ¾ cup maple syrup
  • ¾ cups coconut flour
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • 2 tbsp poppy seeds
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Start by preheating your oven to 350°F/180°C
  • Line the inside of a muffin tin with nonstick cooking oil or spray.
  • In a large bowl, combine the coconut flour, baking soda, salt, poppy seeds, lemon zest, coconut oil and maple syrup.
  • Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each egg is added.
  • Using a mixer on low speed, slowly mix in the vanilla and lemon juice. Beat the mix until smooth.
  • Portion the batter into the muffin tin, only ¾ full to allow room for the muffins to rise into.
  • Put tray in preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes. To test when they’re done, insert a toothpick in the center and then remove it. If it comes out clean then you’re all set.
  • Remove tray from oven and leave to cool for 5 minutes. Then remove muffins from tray and leave to cool completely.
