This date-sweetened, gluten-free muffin recipe is easy to make and super healthy. It's also incredibly delicious!  I serve it to the boys for breakfast with scrambled eggs, or as an after school snack. I love gluten-free baked goods made with healthy flours such as almond, coconut, or flax meal. I'm especially fond of treats that are sweetened with fruit, rather than honey or maple syrup. The great thing about using fruit as a sweetener is that it comes with fiber, which slows down the absorption of sugars.

Enjoy these fruit sweetened muffins made from coconut flour!

These muffins will come out just as well when made without the walnuts. Then, you've got a great gluten-free, nut-free breakfast recipe! Lately loads of readers have been letting me know that they have nut allergies. If you can't eat nuts, check out my Nut-Free Recipes page!

  1. We LOVE these muffins and have been making them for years through our travels all over the world. They freeze great for bringing on day trips too!
    My kids love when I add chocolate chips but then you certainly don’t need stevia or dates.

    • Penny, to store these muffins, wrap in a paper towel, seal in a plastic bag, and refrigerate for up to 1 week. So glad to hear they’re scrumptious :-)
