Grain Free & Corn free - Paleo "Cornbread" Muffins

When you hear "corn-free Cornbread" it sounds kind of crazy. I knew that it was possible for something to "taste" like cornbread even though it does not have corn in it. Before I realized foods were bothering me, I was trying to find a good vanilla cake recipe. One I tried had a huge cornbread taste. Everyone was like "why did you put cornmeal in this" well I hadn't. For whatever reason, somethings just taste like cornbread even though they don't have anything corn in them. That was my hope when I was trying to create "corn free" cornbread muffins.

These actually do have a "cornbread" taste. Which is good news for people who like cornbread but can't eat corn.

We have this meal that is the best with cornbread. It just wouldn't be the same without it. These are a PERFECT replacement for the "real" cornbread. They have a similar texture too! I am sure that you could put these among "real cornbread" and no one would think twice about it.

Paleo & Vegan Avocado Key Lime Pie

I love this light simple key lime pie! It is so creamy and smooth and tastes so fresh, and doesn't make you feel heavy after eating it. You may worry that it will taste like avocados...

But you get the creamy and smooth texture of the avocado that makes it so good! Paleo & Vegan Avocado Key Lime Pie Ingredients Crust Layer 1/2 C. Almonds(any other nut will work) 1/2 C.

It is so creamy and very similar to the "real" cream cheese frosting I used to make. I will be posting the recipe for it soon!
