Chocolate Peppermint Muffins

Christmas is almost here and so are lots of parties and gatherings! Now, as much as I love this time of year, I can't help but wish that health remained a priority throughout it so that way there was no need to hit "reset" January 1st! So, what if this year, we made it a goal to keep it festive and healthy at the same time and we intentionally ate decadent treats that left us feeling energized and allowed us to end this year strong? Allow me to introduce to you my Chocolate Peppermint Muffins that can be eaten with breakfast or for dessert! Give them a try!

Ingredients:

-2 cups of oat flour 

-2 eggs 

-2/3 cup of cacao powder

-1/2 cup of unsweetened cacao nibs 

-3/4 cup of agave 

-1 tsp of liquid stevia or monk fruit 

-1/2 tsp of baking soda 

-2 tsp of peppermint extract 

-1/2 cup or avocado oil 

Directions:

Pre heat your oven to 350 degrees and then in a medium bowl, add in the flour, eggs, cacao nibs and baking soda. Next, add in the liquid ingredients and stir thoroughly. Then, spray prepare your muffin with avocado or coconut oil based nonstick spray, and then evenly distribute the batter. Bake your muffins for 30 minutes and then allow them to cool. Enjoy! (PS these go amazing with a cup of coffee!)
