Almond Muffins Recipe

Super soft and fluffy whole wheat Almond Muffins with white chocolate chips and a crunchy streusel topping. These make a great breakfast or afternoon coffee treat!

Oh Muffin!!

You are so cute, so handy, so delicious and oh so versatile.

These muffins are an adapted version from one of the first recipes I posted on this blog. Back then, we were about to leave on our Asia trip, and I had thrown all kinds of things that needed using up into the mix. This time, I streamlined the add-ins a little bit and made them almond - actually triple almond - muffins with white chocolate.

I must say, even thinking back on my first recipes like the one this is taken from, brings fond memories. The memories are vivid of the excitement of starting to document my recipes in the kitchen. I am grateful for the journey, and even more grateful for you! That's right, you, the reader. Thank you so much for following along. I hope you are learning how to become a pro in the kitchen. 😉

Triple the Almonds for Triple the Fun!

As for the triple almond action with this recipe, yes, you read correctly. Almonds appear in these cookies in three forms. There is almond milk (which can be substituted with regular milk, per your preferences), almond flour, and chopped almond pieces. I've mentioned before about my love affair with almonds. They are such a healthy and versatile foodstuff. So let's get into it.

Despite using whole wheat flour, these muffins are anything but dry and dense. Thanks to the addition of oats and almond flour, the texture is wonderfully light and airy. The streusel topping creates a deliciously crunchy texture contrast to the fluffy muffins.

A perfect breakfast, quick snack on the go or comforting coffee time treat. Enjoy!
