- 1 and 3/4 cups almond flour
- 1/2 cup tapioca starch
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup gluten-free chocolate chips
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it well.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond flour, tapioca starch, baking soda, and salt.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and both sugars until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Gently fold in the gluten-free chocolate chips.
- Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
- Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
- Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- You can substitute coconut oil for butter for a dairy-free option.
- Add a sprinkle of sea salt on top before baking for extra flavor.
- These muffins are best enjoyed fresh, but can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
