Vegan & Paleo Monkey Bread Muffins
These monkey bread muffins are vegan, paleo, gluten-free, dairy-free, simple to make, and so so tasty!
Ingredients
For the dough:
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1 cup cassava flour
- 3 tablespoon arrowroot flour
- 2 teaspoon baking powder
- 3 tablespoon coconut oil melted
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 1 cup non-dairy milk mixed with 2 teaspoon ACV mix & let sit for about 5 minutes prior to using
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon coconut sugar
For the cinnamon sugar coating:
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
- ⅓ cup coconut sugar
For the sticky sauce:
- 1 ½ tablespoon melted vegan butter (sub melted coconut oil for paleo!)
- 2 tablespoon maple syrup
For the icing drizzle (paleo version)
- ¼ cup melted coconut butter
For the icing drizzle (NOT paleo version)
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- 1-2 teaspoon water
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350℉ and line 10 muffin molds with cupcake liners.
- In a large bowl, mix together all wet ingredients for the dough. Mix in the dry ingredients until you have a dough.
- In a separate bowl, mix together the cinnamon sugar coating. Begin rolling your dough into balls (about a tablespoon in size) and then roll in the cinnamon sugar mixture until coated.
- Place 3 balls of dough together into each muffin tin. In a small bowl, mix together your sticky sauce and pour evenly over each muffin (only a teaspoon or 2 in each).
- Bake for 23-25 min. Let cool while you mix up your icing drizzle. Drizzle the icing over the cooled muffins and enjoy!
Shelah
Do you think cassava flour can be replaced with coconut flour? And cornstarch for arrowroot?
