Creamy Overnight Oats

 

Creamy Overnight Oats is my new go-to favorite breakfast. This easy to prepare recipe is a nod to comfort food and yet, so healthy for you too. Feel free to add any toppings you like to change up the flavor combinations. I like berries, almond butter granola with Greek yogurt, and lemon zest. Coconut would also work, as would dried cherries with a sprinkle of cacao powder.

Keto Blueberry Muffins

Makes 12 muffins

Ingredients:

2 cups almond flour

2/3 cup granulated Swerve

1 tsp baking powder

3 large eggs, room temperature

1/3 cup unsalted melted butter, or coconut oil

2/3 cup unsweetened almond milk, or dairy milk

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 cup blueberries

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 350 °F. Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin; or line the tin with papers.

Whisk the dry ingredients: almond flour, Swerve, baking powder in a bowl.

In another bowl, mix all of the liquid ingredients: melted butter, almond milk, eggs and vanilla. Add the dry ingredients and gently mix together.

Fold in the blueberries.

Divide the mixture into the prepared muffin pan; an ice-cream scoop works well here.

Bake about 25 minutes until they’re light golden brown on top, and a toothpick inserted into the middle of one of the center muffins comes out clean.

Remove from oven and cool in pan for 5 minutes. Transfer muffins to a rack to cool.
