You may be wondering what does pumpkin puree do in baking.

These muffins get their pumpkin flavor from actual pumpkin.

People seem to ask why is almond flour healthy.

Let me first start by telling you that almond flour is made by grinding raw almonds into a flour. Ideally, your almond flour should have no other ingredients added to it.

Since almond flour is made from just almonds, it has all of the nutrients that almonds have in it.

That means almond flour is a source of fiber, protein, Vitamin E, and heart healthy nutrients.
Almond flour is also friendly to low carbohydrate, keto, paleo, vegan, and gluten free diets.

 

Here are some tips for making pumpkin muffins with almond flour.
