Ingredients
Scale
- 1/3 cup coconut flour
- 1/4 cup tapioca flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
- 4 eggs
- 1/3 cup maple syrup
- 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons lemon zest
- 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line a muffin tin with 6 muffin cup liners or lightly oil a non-stick muffin tin.
- Mix the coconut flour, tapioca flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and chia seeds together in a medium bowl.
- In a separate large bowl, add the eggs and beat with a hand mixer until well blended, about 1 minute.
- To the bowl with the eggs, add the maple syrup, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, lemon juice, and lemon zest and beat again until combined.
