  • When baking with almond flour, you always want to let your batter to sit for 10-15 minutes, because this will allow the almond flour to absorb all the liquids.
  • You don’t want to over-bake these muffins, you want them to be moist so remove them from the oven and allow them to rest and continue baking outside before enjoying them.
  • If you don’t have a food processor, just use a fork to mash the avocado and whisk all the ingredients in a bowl.
  • Coconut sugar will not mix like granulated sugar does, because it is a little coarse.
