Orange and chocolate are a match made in heaven, and I’m going to assume you agree if you’re considering making these yummy muffins! These gluten free muffins (easily made non-gluten free as well) have a bright citrus flavor, packed with just the right amount of melty chocolate chunks and are, dare I say it, SO MOIST.
These orange chocolate chip muffins are made with a blend of gluten free all purpose flour and almond flour. Like I mentioned before, you can easily swap the gluten free flour with traditional all purpose flour. I LOVE baking with almond flour. It gives baked goods such a yummy, crumbly texture. Plus, it makes me feel like I’m making healthy choices 😉
