Ingredients  (Use organic where possible)

⅓ cup (33g) coconut flour

Directions

 Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a muffin pan with nonstick paper baking cups.

In a large bowl, whisk together the lemon zest, lemon juice, coconut oil, coconut milk, maple syrup, eggs and vanilla extract.

In a separate bowl, mix to combine the tapioca flour, coconut flour, chia seeds, baking soda and salt. Then using a whisk, mix dry and wet ingredients together to form a batter.
