Grain Free Peanut Butter and Jelly Muffins
There’s nothing like peanut butter and jelly to bring you back to the good ol’ days of childhood!! It’s actually funny, when I think of my childhood I think of almond butter and jelly sandwiches, but nothing (and I repeat - NOTHING) will ever replace the classic peanut butter and jelly combo!!
I’ve been on a huge peanut butter and jelly kick so I knew I had to make a fun creative recipe with that combination asap. I decided on these grain free, dairy free, refined sugar free peanut butter and jelly muffins and I am SO HAPPY with how they turned out!!
Since being gluten free for the last 6+ years, I haven’t found a gluten free bread that satisfies that soft gooey peanut butter and jelly sandwich vibe (such a tragedy) but these muffins … it’s almost like the perfect combo of soft “bread” and the gooey pb&j!!! Maybe I’m crazy, but I think these satisfy that peanut butter and jelly sandwich craving for sure. ;)
These peanut butter and jelly muffins are also specific carbohydrate diet friendly (and free of gluten, dairy, grains and refined sugar!) to help my fellow gut-health-issue-warriors out there thrive. :) I hope you love these as much as I do!
