Raspberry Almond Crunch Muffins

Teresa Ambra
Raspberry Almond Crunch Muffins are delightfully sugar-free and gluten-free! These lovely, crunchy & delectable muffins include raspberries, almonds and almond extract for a pop of flavor. They're topped with a tasty oatmeal streusel that adds even more crunchiness. These are perfect for a weekend or holiday breakfast, especially if you have family or friends with diabetic or celiac issues. But if you prefer, you can make these scrumptious muffins with regular sugar and flour with equally wonderful results!

Notes

NOTE: I used Super Life Stevia and Monk Fruit Sweetener. One 8.8-oz. bag is just under one cup. This product is erythritol free and sucralose free.
 
NOTE: I purchased the King Arthur gluten free flour, almond flour and Monk Fruit Sweetener at our local Walmart.
 
NOTE: For a slightly more rounded top, consider increasing the gluten free flour to 1 1/2 cups.
