You may remember this post\u00a0<\/a>where I shared that my healing (for lack of a better word) “journey” is changing directions. If not, you might like to go back and have a read.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Part of this change is getting my body into a state of ketosis. This starves the bad bugs of their only energy source; sugar. It’s not the most exciting of diets, especially when I was doing so well at introducing new foods.<\/a>\u00a0However if this is what I need to finally be well each and every day and get some consistency back in my life (and stools!), then a month or so without fresh young coconuts, butternut pumpkin and fresh beetroot is a small price to pay.<\/p>\n

When you take so many foods out, you have to replace them with something. These keto muffins are my replacement for these muffins<\/a>\u00a0(which are already very low-carb, but when each carb counts, the lower the better). Coconut oil (and lots of it) really helps the body get into a state of ketosis and fast. These muffins are bursting full of this nourishing fat and will provide you with a sustainable source of energy (and a rich, satisfying and buttery muffin texture).<\/p>\n

These keto muffins are also perfect for those that can only handle very small amounts of nuts, the recipe makes 8 and there’s only half a cup of activated macadamias in the whole recipe. So for those of you with very sensitive digestive systems … your welcome (winks).<\/p>\n

I suggest storing these delights in the fridge and eating them cold. The coconut oil hardens upon cooling and produces a rich, thick and soft muffin. As a bonus the macadamias make them a creamy off-white colour, not unlike traditional butter muffins made with white flour – or maybe I’ve been grain-free for so long that I’ve forgotten what ‘real’ muffins taste and look like. Regardless, I can attest that they are delicious.<\/p>\n

Ingredients<\/b><\/p>\n

6 fresh, free range<\/b> (organic if possible but no sweats if not) eggs<\/b><\/p>\n

1 and 1\/2 cups melted organic virgin coconut oil<\/a><\/b> (must<\/em> be virgin, the coconut oil can’t be sexually active<\/del> hydrogenated, it damages all of the delicious and nutritious properties of this precious lipid)<\/p>\n

1\/2 cup activated macadmias<\/b> (I used half a cup of raw, organic macadamias and soaked them for 8 hours in filtered water and drained and rinsed them before baking with them)<\/p>\n

Then just …<\/b><\/p>\n

Combine all ingredients in a high speed blender (like the Vitamix), until you have a smooth, thick, creamy, pale yellow batter.<\/p>\n

Divide batter among 8 muffin tins lined with muffin cases (I used the large ‘if you care’<\/i> muffin liners)<\/p>\n

Bake at 150 degrees C (fan forced) for 30 minutes.<\/p>\n

Remove from oven, allow to cool and store in airtight containers in the fridge.<\/p>\n

Recipe Notes<\/span><\/h1>\n
\n

They’ll last a week in the fridge, but I doubt they’ll be around longer than that anyways.<\/p>\n
