These are gluten free energy muffins due to the great amount of protein found in the Chia seeds and peanut butter.
This recipe also uses pure RAW Honey. If you’ve read my posts on honey in the past (Honey for Allergies , The Destruction of Sugar), you know how beneficial honey can be and how important it is to find a source that is true honey.
Some gluten free breads or muffins can be dense or too “earthy” for many tastes. Not so with this recipe. IN FACT, it passed the ultimate test by being scarfed down by one of my more picky children. They are light and fluffy, full of great protein from the chia seeds, and are very moist and delicious.
