YAAAS this is a muffin my style. I prefer those savory and sour tastes over the sweet, although balance is always key. This looks like the perfect breakfast recipe for a few days. I’m going to go pick up some groceries right now. Thanks, Z!

I’d love to make this!
I am also going to try this: http://nourishedandnurtured.blogspot.nl/2012/05/grain-free-sandwich-bread-gaps-primal.html , as I find it hard to not eat bread,but I don’t respond well to (too much) bread. I always look like I am pregnant due to my bloated belly:P.
Just a silly question…How large is one ‘cup’. Is it around 250ml if placed in a measurement bowl?:D ^^

I made this, and IT IS SOOOO GOOD. It is such a creamy cake! I can’t believe it’s low carb! Wow. The sour cream makes this perfect for my taste. I prefer those moist, creamier cakes. I am blown away by how delicious it is. Eating it with a little cashew butter, OMG. I also added almond extract and rosewater. I love the way that tastes with the fruit and creaminess.

Zuzka would you consider posting nutrition facts with your recipes? It would be helpful for people like me who like to count calories 🙂

So I calculated based on Bob’s Red Mill almond flour and the Earthbound Farms mixed berries I used, and then general calorie counts of sour cream, eggs, etc. The total calorie count for this recipe as it is written is only 2,164. And keep in mind this is mostly high quality fats and proteins, fibers and some fruit. It’s a very healthy recipe for sure! 2,164/15 is only 145 calories. For my needs, I’ve been eating 3 “portions” or 435 calories. I don’t like to count calories, but this is a perfect amount for a low carbohydrate breakfast, in my opinion.

I made these today, and they are DELICIOUS! I used just frozen blueberries because my mixed berries were just too huge, haha. They turned out ot be one of the most delicious low carb blueberry muffins I’ve ever tried. Thank you, Zuzka! XOXO

This was an awesome recipe, which I made today. I took some into hospital for my dad who is currently in there 😩. He loved them Zuzka 👍🏼
I ran out of almond flour so only half one and a half cups so the rest was coconut flour and they tasted perfection, just sweet enough (I only had xylitol) & the sour cream made them moist and lovely!!
Definitely make them again 😋

How long can muffins stay in the fridge?
