Raspberry Swirl Muffins with almond butter that is not only moist and delicious but paleo and gluten-free!
These raspberry swirl muffins are perfectly sweet but have a decadent almond butter swirl that brings back all the nostalgia of childhood. I don’t know why raspberries aren’t used as much in muffins! It seems like blueberries get all the love. I love the slight tartness of the raspberries, though less tart than cranberries. Feel free to use fresh or frozen.
If you are eating these within a couple of days keep them out, otherwise, store them in the freezer (my secret) to keep them moist. The fridge tends to dry things out!
I also used coconut flour in these, which is a very absorptive flour that is high in fiber and great for you. Coupled with the almond butter you have a good dose of healthy fats and protein that will keep you full!
