MUFFIN TOPS. Yeah, I know you like ’em too. Don’t get me wrong, I lurve whole muffins too but there is just something so special about those tops. Fun fact: I save the muffin top for last when eating muffins. Yeah people think it’s weird when they see me eating the stem first but when they hear my explanation, they wonder why they don’t eat it like that. I guess you could call me a #trendsetter.

But fo realz though, you gotta agree with me . Muffin tops are theeeeee best part of a muffin hands down. You get all the goods stored in the muffin tops. They are the fluffiest, cakiest, moistest (sorry) part of the muffin and also contain the streusely goodness. So have I convinced you to totally ditch the bottom part yet!?

Okay guys, this time of year I start to go crazy about pumpkin. I mean, I eat it year ’round but once Fall hits, Bethany and I go through at least one 16 oz. can every other day…

“This post is sponsored by Honeyville, all opinions are my own.”

It’s only the beginning of October and we have already posted 2 pumpkin recipes, a huge pumpkin roundup and lots of other fall-themed recipes! I guess we just love all things Autumn. I mean, who can resist drinking a nice hot PSL while eating a huge bowl of oatmeal wearing a fuzzy sweater, a burlap scarf and boots!?

Today I’m posting a recipe that should have been posted a loooooooong time ago, AKA muffin tops. Would you believe me if I told you that we have over THREE recipes of muffin tops saved up?

I honestly don’t know why they have never been posted because muffin tops are pretty much the greatest thing ever. Anyways, we are stoked to present to you these paleo, vegan and gluten-free Pumpkin Muffin Tops!

Let’s get to talking about these beauties. These Pumpkin Muffin Tops are stupid-easy to make and contain only real and wholesome ingredients. First and foremost, let me tell you about the most important ingredient in this recipe: Honeyville Blanched Almond Flour.

We use almond flour in many of our recipes because, number 1, we believe it’s the best grain-free sub for regular flour and, number 2, it’s pretty easy to work with, unlike some GF flours. 

We’ve tried so many brands of almond flour and keep coming back to the Honeyville brand because it yields the best taste and texture of our baked goods compared with any other brand we have tried.

Maple Syrup 

Egg/flax egg

Fresh/frozen cranberries
