Oh yeah it’s time for a little sweet thing!
These muffins can be great for breakfast or to be shared as a dessert or afternoon snack. They contain no flour and are fully vegan and gluten free. They contain a little bit of sugar but you can definitely switch it to dates, maple syrup or honey. They tend to be a little crumbly, but are still very tasty!
