Notes
- Because almond flour is very moist and can pack, use the scoop and level method when measuring it unless your recipe specifies otherwise, such as by weight.
- Use room temperature ingredients to ensure that your ingredients blend together smoothly.
- Grease the pan thoroughly. Low carb bakery is more likely to stick. Because almond flour browns quickly, check your muffins at least 5 minutes before you think they are done. If they are not done but are turning brown, cover them with aluminium foil.
- Allow the muffins to cool completely before serving. Almond flour bakery comes together easily, and the texture improves significantly after cooling.
