Almond meal, coconut flour, coconut oil, vegan chia-flax “eggs” and apple cider vinegar can be the start of delicious, gluten-free muffins. But where do you go from there? We think the standard add-ins, like blueberries and chocolate chips, have been overdone. It’s time enjoy something that’s a bit more savory, and these rosemary mini muffins are just the thing. Serve them with dinner or as a breakfast side dish.
