Hi Kiran, you can definitely substitute some maple syrup in for the sugar. I would suggest using 3/4 cup for every cup of sugar, and then you would have to reduce the other liquids in the recipe by 3 Tbsp per cup of maple syrup used, so that the muffins still hold together and are not too moist. We have not make them this way so I cannot speak to how they would turn out. I hope this helps!

We have an almond allergy. Can these be made with coconut flour? Do I need to make adjustments?

Hi Christine, you certainly could make these muffins with other flours; however, the almond-to-coconut flour ratio is not 1:1. Coconut flour absorbs much more moisture than almond flour, and so if you were to substitute just coconut flour, you would need a lot more liquid (approximately 6 eggs for 1/2 cup coconut flour). However, you could substitute half coconut flour and half tapioca flour—for example, if you are looking at 1 cup almond flour, you would do 1/2 cup coconut flour and 1/2 cup tapioca. You might still need to add more moisture—an additional egg or coconut milk, for example. You want to make sure that the batter resembles batter and doesn’t look too dry. I hope this helps! :)

I’m so glad you and your son enjoyed them, Susan!

Excellent! The best muffins I have made! My 9 year old son and I made then last night and we love them!

Hi Monique, you could substitute a different oil for it, though it will likely change the taste of the muffin. I have used melted butter and it worked fine!

Tried making these this morning and they were delicious. I used avocado oil and only a 1/4 cup because that’s all I had left and they still turned out great. Very moist and healthy. I’ll definitely make these again.
