The special ingredient in these breakfast muffins is coconut flour. It is a gluten free, grain free flour. It is high in fiber and is a good source of protein. It is low in carbohydrates and is very filling. The high egg content and no refined sugar in this recipe makes them a nutritious option for breakfast.
