Try these sugar free, gluten-free magnificent muffins!

Shabbat meals always need a tasty dessert.  So, I’m constantly looking for unique dessert recipes that are quick and easy to prepare and have that WOW factor. I never thought baking without wheat flour or sugar could work, but it definitely does!

This is my first attempt in using almond flour and I was pleasantly surprised at how delicious and enjoyable the flavor was. And anything with chocolate chips is always yummy. I didn’t even miss the sugar. (and no artificial sweeteners either!). The Galilee Green Olive Oil provides the healthy “fat” that makes these moist and filling unlike many other gluten-free baked desserts. You’ll love them.
