Light and fluffy and sweetened to perfection

These muffins tasted so good with a cup of tea in the morning, and I felt better enjoying them when Nishma informed me that it was light on the sugar and made with almond flour.

Somehow hearing the fabulous ingredients made me enjoy the muffin even more. I got the recipe and made a batch at home and they turned out as fluffy and delicious as my friend Nishma’s!
