GF/CF Corn Free Recipes (Baked Goods)

The following recipes are for homemade snacks that I put in my kid's lunch boxes or give them as snacks at home. Everything is gluten/dairy and corn free. They are all pretty easy to make and 3 out of the 4 of the recipes are grain free! I use mini tins to make my muffins so they are pretty much bite size. My kids love them and I hope yours will too.

Apple Cinnamon Muffins

2 eggs (I use organic cage free)
1/2 C Almond Flour (I use Bob's Red Mill)
1/2 tsp baking soda (Hain corn free)
Pinch of salt (sea salt)
Pinch of Cinnamon
Pinch or more of ground flax or flax seeds (whichever you prefer)
1/4 C Apple Sauce (organic or you can puree apples)
 a tiny bit less than 1/4 C olive oil
1/8 Raw honey

Mix the wet ingredients and then add in the dry ingredients and mix till there are no lumps.
Put in oven at 350 for 15 minutes.


Banana Coconut Muffins with Chocolate Chips

1/2 C Coconut flour (Bob's Red Mill)
1 tsp Baking Soda
1/4 tsp Sea Salt
1 Soft Ripe Banana (mashed up)
4 eggs
1/2 C Raw Honey
1/3 C Coconut Yogurt (So Delicious Brand)
1/4 C Mini Chocolate Chips (Enjoy Life Brand)

Mix the dry ingredients first. Then mix in the wet until there are no lumps. Bake at 350 for 20 minutes. You can substitute berries for the banana and change up the recipe!

2 tsp Vanilla (Frontier alcohol free)
1/2 C + 2 TBSP Almond Butter

1/4 C Coconut Oil
1/4 C Raw Sugar
1/4 C Organic Light Brown Sugar

Pinch of Sea Salt
1/2 TBSP Cinnamon
3/4 C Gluten Free Oats (not steel cut)
1/4 C Mini Chocolate Chips (Enjoy Life Brand)

Pre heat oven to 350. Beat coconut oil and sugar in a mixer. Add the egg and beat more, add the vanilla and beat more. Mix dry ingredients separately and then combine. Beat until no lumps and then mix in by hand the chocolate chips.
