breakfast goji berry gluten free muffins

This gluten free muffins are a healthy snack or a breakfast option while also being absolutely sugar free

I have came across breakfast muffins recipe in one of the books by Áine Carlin. This recipe is inspired by her muffins.

The gluten free goji berry muffins are low in sugar. Actually the only natural sugar in them comes from the apple, and some from the dry goji berries. And of course the maple syrup if you choose use it.
Overall they are healthy filling breakfast option or fantastic lunch or snack food. 

There is no sugar added to this gluten free muffins.

The almonds help to sustain you for longer while the goji berries add notes of sweetness and sourness to enhance the flavour.

Different options.

The Incan berries are optional as they are harder to get by, although I am absolute fan of their sourness. I use them pretty much every time I make those muffins. Often I also add sour cherries. I am quite particular when it comes to the sugar amount in my foods and always strive to lower the amount of it as much as possible. Even the natural sugar.

I found that the apple has just enough of the natural sugars to help the muffins rise and make them taste good without making them too sweet. 

It is possible that for someone who is used to shop bought and highly sugary food this muffins may not hit the mark. But if you are health conscious and you like good food I think you will love them .

As long as you keep ratios experiment with the nuts or dry fruits. Add hazels if you like them more instead of the almonds. Swap the goji berries for cranberries if you like those more. Although let me tell you, most cranberries because of their natural tartness are sweetened with apple or pineapple juice so they are actually quite sugar loaded.
