Preparation
- Serving size:2.85 oz (calculated)Notes: 1 muffin
- Temperature: 350 °F
- In a large bowl, cream the softened butter.
- Whisk in the sweetener.
- Whisk in the eggs one at a time.
- Add the vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, cinnamon, xanthan gum and salt.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir until well combined. You will get a thick, dough-like batter.
- Fold in half of the coarsely chopped walnuts and the finely grated zucchini.
- Line a muffin tin with liners. If you have them, use silicone liners, else paper will do. You can also make a loaf (instead of 12 muffins) using a loaf tin measuring 9 in by 5 in (about 23 cm by 12.5 cm).
- Evenly divide the batter. I like to add about 1/4 cup of dough per muffin and then divide the rest, about another tablespoon per muffin.
- Top with the remaining chopped walnuts and bake for 25 minutes or until done. You can check this with a toothpick. Insert it into the center - it should come out clean.
- When baking a loaf, increase the time in the oven to about double (50 minutes). If the bread browns too quickly, you can cover it with aluminum foil.
- Let cool and enjoy.
- At room temperature, the muffins / bread keeps a couple of days. We recommend you store it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Alternatively, freeze individual portions or a loaf for up to 6 months. Thaw and briefly microwave for that freshly-baked taste.
