Chili Cheese Muffins (GF, LC)

Serves: 9

Ingredients

• 1¼ cups blanched almond flour (not almond meal)
• ½ teaspoon salt
• ½ teaspoon baking soda
• 3 large eggs
• 2 tablespoons red pepper flakes
• 2 cups firmly packed grated cheddar cheese (8 ounces)

Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

In a bowl combine almond flour, salt, and baking soda with a whisk or fork.

In a separate bowl, beat eggs together.  Then add in beaten eggs to the dry ingredients until well combined.

Stir in 1 tablespoon red pepper flakes and cheddar cheese with a spoon.

Scoop a heaping ¼ cup of batter into each paper lined muffin cup or into a silicone muffin pan (which I use with a coating of cooking spray or use a paper towel or brush to coat the pan with some coconut oil for easy removal).

Garnish muffins with remaining 1 tablespoon red pepper flakes (omit if your kids or others do not like the extra spice)

Bake at 350° for 25-30 minutes

Cool 1 hour,Serve
