What better way to indulge a chocolate craving than with a healthy chocolate chip muffin? These muffins are dairy-free, gluten-free, paleo, and perfect. They make a tasty snack for kids and moms alike.

With summer here and everyone being outside all day, the last thing anyone wants to do is it be inside making snack after snack. Taking the time to have healthy snacks on hand and ready will help keep day to day life a bit simpler.

These almond flour-based, chocolate chip muffins make a tasty snack for busy days as well as a fueling snack when you are out and about.

Grab some for the road when you head out hiking or exploring and stay fueled with both a healthy option as well as an indulgent one.

 

Gluten-Free Muffins

These muffins use a combination of Wildly Organics Almond Flour as well as an all-purpose gluten-free flour.

This gives the muffins a light and fluffy texture while also giving them a nutrient boost thanks to the almonds.

 

A Burst of Healthy Chocolate

Everyone loves chocolate, right? And these chocolate chip muffins have a double dose from chocolate chips and chocolate sauce.

The Wildly Organic Chocolate Syrup is made with just two ingredients: cacao powder and agave syrup and gives the muffins a healthy dose of indulgence.

Cacao powder is loaded with antioxidants, calcium, and magnesium. So, using it in its purest form (instead of it is processed counter part cocoa powder) gives you the best bang for your buck.

The chocolate sauce is thick, indulgent, and the perfect way to top these chocolate chip muffins.

 

When to Use These Chocolate Muffins

These muffins are allergy-friendly and make a tasty snack, though I have definitely used them as a dessert!

Because of the chocolate topping, they are best eaten fresh (not frozen). So, make a batch and keep them in the fridge for the week as an easy grab-and-go snack for yourself and the kids.

These chocolate chip muffins make a great snack for:

  • Day adventures (hiking, exploring etc)
  • Warm days you do not want to turn the oven on
  • For kids as they are running around

Sometimes it can be tricky to get kids in for a snack. Stay on top of their fuel by having healthy homemade muffins on hand and ready to go.
