Paleo muffins are delicious for breakfast, a healthy snack, or dessert! These gluten free dairy free muffins are moist and fluffy, full of maple flavor, and have a burst of cinnamon in every bite.

This muffin recipe is easy to make and one of my favorites. I love the maple/cinnamon combo. And the pecans give these gluten free muffins a little something extra by adding the perfect crunch.

Paleo muffins are some of my favorite baked goods. I love that they come perfectly packaged in an individual muffin liner. They’re not too big, not too small. They’re just right!

Paleo Muffins – How to make

First, preheat the oven to 350℉ and line a muffin tin with parchment liners.

Next, whisk the almond flour, arrowroot powder, baking powder, salt and cinnamon in a medium sized mixing bowl.

Next, add in the eggs, maple syrup, oil, and vanilla and stir until a well mixed batter is formed. Chop the pecans and mix them into the batter.

Once you’ve added the chopped pecans, scoop the batter into your lined muffin tin. I like to use a large ice cream scoop so all the muffins are roughly the same size. Fill each liner about 3/4 of the way full.

Then, place the muffin tin into the oven and bake for 15-17 minutes. Remove from the pan and let the muffins come to room temperature before eating.

Paleo Muffins – Tips

No flour substitutions will work in this almond flour muffin recipe. So avoid swapping the almond flour for coconut flour. They’ll turn out dry and inedible.

Be sure to use a good quality non stick muffin liner. I used these and highly recommend them for all your paleo and gluten free baking recipes!

Sometimes I sprinkle a little coconut sugar on the top of my muffins before sticking them into the oven. Gives it a little something extra!

I like to chop some extra pecans and throw them on top of the muffins before baking in the oven, but this is totally optional.
