Grain-Free French Breakfast Puffs

Ingredients:

1/3 cup butter
2 eggs
¼ cup honey
½ cup coconut flour (measure after sifting)
½ tsp salt
¼ tsp ground nutmeg
½ cup coconut milk
1 ½ tsp baking powder
¼ cup coconut sugar
1 tsp ground cinnamon
¼ cup melted butter

Instructions:

1.     Preheat oven to 350 F degrees and grease 12 muffin cups (or use silicone muffin cups).

2.     Mix butter and egg using electric mixer. Add honey and continue mixing.

3.     In small bowl, combine ¼ cup coconut flour, salt and nutmeg.

4.     Add dry mixture to shortening mixture alternately with coconut milk. Let sit 2 minutes.

5.     Add the rest of the coconut flour in 1-2 tbsp increments waiting 2 minutes in between to allow the flour to absorb the water until a muffin batter consistency is achieved.

6.     Stir in baking powder and fill muffin cups about ½ full.

7.     Bake until golden brown and toothpick comes out clean – about 20-25 minutes.

8.     Mix ¼ cup coconut sugar and the cinnamon. Immediately after baking, spoon on 1 tsp butter and 1 tsp sugar-cinnamon mixture and cool on cooling rack.
