French Toast Muffins

I recently bought some guar gum and have been wanting to try it out because i have read that it is a good thickener. This muffin recipe is coconut flour based, and coconut flour based baked goods tend to have more of a crumbly or eggy type of texture. The 2 teaspoons of guar gum gave these muffins a nice firm but still fluffy texture. If you split them open and melt a little butter on them they really do taste like french toast!

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup sifted Coconut Flour
• 1/3 cup melted butter
• 6 Eggs
• 2 teaspoons guar gum
• 2 teaspoons vanilla
• 1 tablespoon cinnamon
• 15 drops liquid Stevia or Splenda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder

Directions :

Blend together eggs, butter, vanilla, splenda, salt and cinnamon.
Combine coconut flour with baking powder and guar gum.
Whisk dry ingredients into wet ingredients until there are no lumps.
Spoon into greased 6 muffin pan. Bake at 400 degrees for 15 minutes.
