Gluten-Free Chocolate Chip Zucchini Muffins
If you want soft and moist plus bites of chocolate here and there you must make these! They are packed with fiber from the flax seeds and zucchini also all the amazing health benefits of coconut oil and yes the chocolate has health benefits too.(: Better yet they are gluten free! As I sit here typing I am enjoying one of these muffins topped with a generous portion of ghee. By the time this day is over I may or may not have eaten three of these babies unashamedly!
Gluten-Free Chocolate Chip Zucchini Muffins
3/4 cup almond flour
3/4 cup brown rice flour

Spray muffin tins or line tin with cupcake paper. Fill each cup to the top.
