Whole Muffins or Bust!
Why put the lime in the coconut when you can put it in the muffin?

Hi Everyone! I am Lori from What Runs Lori. I’m here to entertain you while Ms. Lauren is living the life in Tibet (seriously, how awesome is that?!)!
Let me just start by saying that I love reading Whole Wheat or Bust. I love seeing what she’s up to and what creative recipes she has bestowed upon us. I have even gone out on a limb by making some of her delicious dishes (best.dish.ever.).
Whole Wheat or Bust is just a pseudo name for the ‘Muffin Blog that Could’… meaning she makes a lot of really, really, really good looking muffins… and other edible items. I just happen to like muffins so this works out nicely. 😉
After Lauren posted her crazy good lookin’ Peanut Butter Crunch Muffins, I quickly commented, to her, that my mission for the week was to make these, only gluten free, and with almond butter, mostly because I really like to not follow recipes.
But, being that I had an abundance of limes in the house and some creative genius, that’s me, I decided to add some tang instead…

Tangy Honey Lime Muffins
Wet Ingredients:
1 banana, mashed
2 heaping tbsp plain nonfat yogurt (or full fat, or sour cream)
3 tbsp raw honey
4 tbsp freshly squeezed lime juice
1 egg
Dry Ingredients:
1/2 cup chickpea flour
1/2 cup millet flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp zanthan gum
pinch of salt
Set the oven to 375 degrees. Mix all of the wet ingredients together in one bowl. Mix all of the dry ingredients together in another bowl. Combine the dry into the wet. Mix to combine (just don’t over mix), pour into muffins tins (preferably greased), and pop ’em into the oven. My little lime muffins baked for about 25 minutes, and as you can see, the tops got a little dark, but the middle was peeeerfect.
Well, that’s all I have for now. Thanks for indulging in some muffin making with me. If you get a chance, stop by and visit me at What Runs Lori and see all the other strange foods I eat and exercises I do, that is, however, what runs Lori…
Benefits:
They’re good. They’re easy. I like muffins. You like muffins. Everyone wins.
Wow, okay! And I call myself someone who likes modifications? You’re amazing, girl! These sound awesome 🙂

Amazing!!! Those look so good – glad I saw this post girl, I’ll be definitely heading over to your site!
Yay for guest posts! Hope Lauren is having an amazing time in Tibet!!! Thanks for letting me guest post, girl!
You’re right, I do like muffins. 🙂 and these look incredible. I love the addition of the lime juice!
I love your GF version of this recipe! 😀 Of course, in the spirit of modification, I’m gonna have to go change your recipe to fit my dairy free diet (hehe), but I definitely see myself making these in the near future!
i love guest post recipes! especially when they involve yummy muffins! Thanks for the recipe Lori ❤

Lori these look great! I love limes, I’m totally trying this recipe out 😀
Thanks for the muffin recipe, and glad to find your blog too. I hadn’t seen it before, but I’m adding it to my reader. Thanks!
These muffins are beautiful. Thanks for an excellent guest post!
I think I am going to start calling you muffin queen. I am a muffin queen myself. Can’t get enough of them!! 🙂
i am actually on a dairy free diet, my stomach can not stand it at all. what could i sub for the yoghurt or could i omit it and the muffins would still work?
perhaps some almond milk? or soy milk? I am not sure - this recipe isnt mine! If you want to ask lori, she can be found at whatrunslori.com!
