These healthy strawberry chocolate chip muffins are baked with coconut flour and are full of flavour. Gluten free and low in carbs they make a great start to the day.
Baking with strawberries are a great way to use those tired looking, flavourless strawberries sitting on the supermarket shelf out of season. To truly enjoy a luscious strawberry, they should be in season and eaten raw, with a dollop of cream. Or with a touch of balsamic vinegar. There is nothing quite like the taste of an English strawberry ripe in season.

I am often the crazy lady in the supermarket picking up punnets of strawberries and sniffing them. If I can’t smell them, I know that they are going to taste of nothing and not worth my dollar. I would prefer to go and pick my own but since I am currently not in the UK, that’s not an option for me. It’s actually back breaking work, picking the strawberries for a living. I spent one summer in my youth working on a fruit farm and it was hard work. Enjoyable though as I liked being outside and munching on the fruit as I was picking them. If I did that now I think it would take me a week to recover! Ah, the joy and energies of youth!

Since strawberries go so well with chocolate it only seemed fair and right that I combine them in a muffin. They both contain antioxidants so let’s call this a healthy muffin too! I initially used a packet of dark chocolate chips to make these but with the second batch I cut up a dark chocolate bar into small chunks. I don’t normally make another batch of a recipe immediately if I enjoy the first one but these were so good I had to make sure that it did infact taste as good as the first one. I should be applying this principle more with recipes! Another tasty batch, “just to make sure”!

Can I double this recipe? I wasn't sure if it would be exactly 2x of every ingredient.

Hey, Can't I use coconut oil instead of butter? Needs to be gluten & casein free

Hi, yes you can. The beauty of baking with coconut flour is that it goes great with coconut oil!
