Chocolate almond mini muffins

The flavour combination of chocolate and almond is always a winner in my mind and these mini muffins are no exception! My kids aren’t allowed to take nuts to school so I often serve them for afternoon tea. They love peanut butter on celery, or chocolate almond biscuits (in our book Boosting Your Basics) or just a classic peanut butter sandwich! And I do love experimenting with almond meal.

This is a fulfilling little snack that uses one bowl and takes no time to make. Perfect for an afternoon tea treat, you can pop a chocolate melt on top or stir through some chocolate chips – or just leave them out! One of my recipe testers said they put a dollop of chocolate hazelnut spread on top which sounds amazing, too!

For more healthy snacks for kids you can find all new recipes in our books. Or, the Best of our baking ebook might be what you’re after!

      What would be a suitable nut free flour alternative?

        You could try spelt flour?
        I made a batch one time and didn’t have enough almond meal so I substituted some spelt flour in and they still turned out well so perhaps give that a try! If you’re looking for a GF nut free substitute maybe try a GF flour or chickpea

      Hi! Thanks for this recipe! Didn’t have almond meal and dessicated coconut in hand so I used a food processor to combine all these ingredients since I was going to blend my raw almonds & it works out pretty well!

      These. Were. AMAZING! Soooo tasty & moist. Thank you for this epic recipe! We didn’t have quite enough almond meal so i used half a cup of hazelnut meal and it worked too… but totally making these again & again for my toddler & my postpartum clients!
