Flourless blueberry & chocolate muffins

Muffins without flour? It sounds strange, do not you think? But these muffins are a hundred times better than any muffin with flour you’ve tasted before!

They are based in buckwheat groats, which are high in protein and gluten-free. They have almond butter and whole almonds that provide natural oils and a delicious touch of flavor as well as texture. And finally, the juicy blueberries and melting chocolate make these muffins a real flavor pump.

The muffins are super practic and simple to make, perfect to take away or leave ready for breakfast the next day. Or just to eat with a coffee in the afternoon, so if you’re looking for some delicious muffin recipes here you have my favorite Beloved apple & cinnamon muffins or Pumpkin muffins
