Making sure my kids get a healthy breakfast is really important to me on days like this. Thank goodness for this easy paleo muffin recipe. In case you want to see more delicious muffin recipes, here are my kids’ favorite gluten free muffin recipes.

Our crazy morning routine

Around 7:00 am, I make the first attempt to wake up my kids. My son is famous for yelling “getting dressed” out of his room to us, then promptly closing his door and returning to bed. He has to leave before 8:00 am, so I poke my head into his room around 7:20 to really get him moving. So far he hasn’t been late, but he and his friends definitely cut it close!

My daughter is in high school and the traffic getting her to school is unlike anything I have ever seen. We have to be out the door by 7:40 for her carpool. There is only a single road that goes to the school, and it has about 7 stop signs between where we get onto the road and our final destination. There have even been several days where I have to drop the girls off on the route because they can walk faster than I can get through the traffic.

If I look at our mornings from an outsider’s eyes, I would probably burst out laughing. It is pretty comical when your son runs downstairs with a shirt on backward, five minutes before his carpool is scheduled to arrive.

Coconut flour muffins

I used coconut flour to make these carrot muffins grain free! Coconut flour is easy to use, but there are some things you need to consider when baking with coconut flour. First, coconut flour will absorb a LOT more liquid than regular flour. Make sure you increase the percentage of liquid in a recipe by at least 1/3!

First, coconut flour will absorb a LOT more liquid than regular flour. Make sure you increase the percentage of liquid in a recipe by at least 1/3! Second, coconut flour has a different texture than plain gluten-free flour. Some people add a little almond flour to help with the texture. This is always optional.

My muffin recipe is wheat free, gluten free, refined sugar-free, dairy free, and completely Celiac safe.

This recipe is perfect for anyone looking for paleo diet recipes.

I always worry the kids won’t have enough time to eat breakfast. These grain-free muffins are perfect for these types of mornings. Each paleo carrot muffin is low sugar, and full of protein and nutrition.

And even better, my kids like them.
