One of the food items I miss most living on a gluten free ketogenic diet is my morning fruit muffins. I just had to figure out a way to get this delicious morning breakfast staple back into my food repertoire. You can use fresh or frozen blueberries, or alternative use a blend of strawberries, blueberries and raspberries. Keep within these low sugar fruit alternatives if you are following a strict keto diet. This recipe is also a great gluten free alternative for those who cannot tolerate using flour and other grains in their daily meals.

• Add the muffin batter to the muffin cups and bake for about 25-30 minutes. Test with a toothpick. If it comes out clean, the muffins are cooked fully. Let sit and cool for at least 5-10 minutes before removing from the muffin pan. Store in an airtight container or freeze for later.
